destruction

For a few days I would pass this building being knocked down. sometimes people stopped to watch, other times it was like it wasn't happening, but on this day I saw a picnic going on beside it. People brought their small children to watch the building being torn down. I did not understand. Sure, it was interesting, but what would cause a parent to bring their child to watch. Little boys are fascinated with big trucks and construction, but take a field trip to a demolition site? I found the situation ironic. This photo is proof that I need to practice taking pictures without being noticed.  I tried to take this while walking and without looking directly at the subject. Although it is not artistic, it is the content that shocked me.

Since being here life has dramatically changed. Coming from an all girls school, I didn't know how I would handle boys in the classroom. I soon found out  how easy that would be to overcome and how difficult it would be to get used to living with boys. I make them sound like gross aliens, but let's be honest they're pretty close. In this case their immaturity turned into hilarity. The best part about making a big move and throwing myself into a new environment is being able to embrace that change. The new experiences keep life interesting. So when you're next door neighbor steals your roommate's robe you can laugh instead of feeling awkward. Living in a house with  5 people compared to the past month.
