Spring Break!

Hey Y’all!

I know it’s been a while but I’m back. This spring break I went back home to continue my tour of NYC. This time I was able to go to Dumbo, Brooklyn and Hudson Yards. Aside from touring the city I was just happy to be home. I was able to visit my high school and spend some time with my JROTC program. Additionally, I was able to sleep in bed all day, which felt weird, and eat good home cooked Caribbean food. Honestly, there was so much to do with so little time but I still made the most of it!

City Excursions

I learned about Dumbo during winter term and, after seeing how pretty the streets and views were, it became a must-see. While at home I contemplated the easiest and cheapest way to go to the city. I then choose the hardest way: driving! I don’t have enough fingers to count how many accidents I almost got involved in. That’s not even the worst part — parking! I know it’s hard to find parking in NYC, but this time was extremely ridiculous. Enough complaining. I finally got out of the car and started to walk around with my camera and honestly it was better than the pictures.

The next day I went to the Sculpture in Hudson Yards and guess what? I ran into Carls! Who knew people from a small Liberal Arts college would think to visit the same statue at the same time. Anyways, over break, I got to accomplish some personal goals. I updated my student profile on the directory and created a portfolio.

It’s been real!

p.s. Congrats to all the Carls that got in!

Other than defending that he is an authentic New Yorker (he’s from Long Island), Jevon spends his time immersing himself into Carleton’s vibrant student social atmosphere. He is considering majoring in Biology or Chemistry; either way, Jevon has plenty of time to decide. Meet the Other Bloggers!
