Senator Scott Brown's Response E-mail
Dear Matthew,
Thank you for contacting me regarding the repeal of the law known as “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” As always, I value your input on this and other issues, and strive to keep you updated on the important issues facing us today.

An open letter to President Obama
Dear President Obama,
Since my late teenage years I have made an effort to be aware of politics in the United States, but it was not until media buzz began in 2006 about the possibility of you running for President, that I had heard of you. There was of course an abundance of discussion and information being spewed about you throughout the media at this time, however, I researched your history...

So right now I should be writing a paper that is due tomorrow for my lit. class, but blogging, or rather tumbling, seems exponentially more appealing. This past weekend I went to Budapest (correctly pronounced Buda-pesht)! It was amazing. I went with my good ol’ Northeastern gal pals Carly, Brittany & Chelsea. We stayed in a hostel that was not like your modern fancy shmancy hostels you...
Auschwitz & Krakow
This weekend I went on a trip coordinated by ECES, the program through which I am studying abroad in Prague. It was my first trip outside of the Czech Republic since I have been here. We went to Auschwitz concentration camp and then Krakow in Poland. We took an overnight bus to Auschwitz first so it was definitely an intense experience to wake up to. I feel fairly well-informed and well-educated...

Blogcrastinating
Sorry, yet again for my lack of blogging, though I doubt (yet again) that anyone will really care or read my blog anyways, except for you Gabby (my only true friend; that’s right, the rest of you don’t matter). Anywho, I was a complete hermit lazy ass today and left the kolej only once to cross the street and get food at this Mexican restaurant, Dos Pinkos. Still not sure what...
Sorry for the delay!
Not that I will likely have many readers of my blog, but I figured I’d apologize anyways for my own guilt. Praha (Czech for Prague) is absolutely amazing. It is without a doubt the most beautiful, historic, and clean city I have ever been to. The dorm I live in (Kolej Komenskeho) is kind of ghetto and communist but we all seemed to adjust to the lower quality of the building after the first...
