Cambridge Fall

Yesterday I went to my supervision for 3F1. It was at the fellow's house out in West Cambridge.

So I biked out there and back - about 10 minutes each way. We passed various sports fields, little rural houses, the University library, and countless trees/bridges/parks.

It was beautiful. Finally, a redeeming factor of this place. It's not a city, but it's got its nice, compact, chill and rural areas of narrow streets, standing mailboxes, and cottage houses. 4pm, under a calmly setting orange/pink sun, biking down the street past house after house, notes in a messenger bag hung across my shoulder, fall jacket loosely wrapped around, all as a Cambridge University student ... it was one of those happy moments that every once in a while amidst my homesickness for MIT give me hope that this place has its gems to be discovered.
