Family Free Day

Today I went to the museum to make up some hours after taking a few days off to visit Tufts. Every month, the museum hosts a Family Free Day, which is essentially exactly what it sounds like. For the majority of the day, I was in the Idea Box, helping kids with the craft I created (the paper houses). It was great to see kids actually working on the craft I designed and it was really popular. I also helped out with the teen craft, which was an awesome graffiti workshop.The museum was filled with kids and everyone seemed to be having a really great time.

This week, I also visited Tufts. It was amazing and I'm pretty positive that I'm going there. When I got to campus and checked in, Becky, the admissions rep for Arizona, immediately jumped up and said, "I'm so glad to see you!" and then, to her colleagues, "She's from Basis; Basis girls will bust you on some stuff." Only she didn't say stuff. Juniors, you now have a reputation in the Tufts admission office. While visiting, I went to a discussion hosted by the founder of DC based advocacy group GOProud. He was really quite interesting and very well spoken. However, I think the clincher was that there is ginger ale in the cafeteria soda machines. Go Jumbos!
