It's been awhile since I have written due to constant traveling, dining, and college touring. Since my last entry, we toured Bard, Vasser, Sarah Lawrence, and Swarthmore. Bard, way out in the middle of nowhere, did not really appeal to me and my parents swore to never visit me in this barren location. Vasser was like Hogwarts, old, beautiful, presenting a message of established knowledge and history. Sarah Lawrence was absolutely gorgeous. With its tutor style architecture and rolling green lawns, it was a place where I could picture myself. Contrary to its intimidating name, Bronxville was very quaint, with tidy shops and restraunts, an east coast Los Gatos. Swathmore was also beautiful, lined with beautiful gardens.
And here I am at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn! I was so nervous about coming here but immediately relieved when I stepped foot on the gorgeous green campus. The dorms are beautiful; they are large with a spacious closets and wonderful views. Every two rooms shares a bathroom, which is fantastic. The campus is scattered with sculptures, creating an inspirational environment. We were given a neighborhood tour, which gave us an idea of where we can go and where we should not go. Brooklyn is lovely, having a smaller and more intimate feel than Manhattan. A street over and I have everything I could possibly need! I have already met some people and have a feeling I am going to learn a lot here. I am anticipating great fun, hard work, and a big adventure!
