Becoming Bostonian 101

I moved to Boston on March 27th, 2014.  Before I start posting new stuff, I wanted to dedicate a post on my life in Boston so far.  It has been a little more than four months since my first day back in the States and so much happened in those times! These are some snippets of the fun memories I had so far :)


Yogurtland with my college ministry kupc people! we have a strong community here in Boston!


met some amazing musicians from Berklee College of Music through my ex-roommate Ju-young :) She is also an amazing cook! 


Bex and Matt are very hospitable and invited all of us to have dinner together. Thank you Bex and Matt for a delicious pasta meal :) 


Then I finally moved to a new summer sublet apartment at prudential


I get to walk by the Christian Science center to go home everyday 


had my first RED SOX game experience with Highrock church small group members! 


Pretty awesome and intense science discussion with my lab members from Korea (now all based in Harvard and MIT) Toscanini's was awesome


Jeff took us to this amazing ramen place in Porter Square! I miss you mentee :) 


The very first KUPC brother to be based in Boston finally graduated from Harvard as a M.D. 
we are so proud of you Sam! 


Participated in a 5K run with Bex and Renewal church members! 
I broke my record! 36' 59'' 


Chillin at MIT campus when Karen visited :D 


my PI gave us beeeeeer during our meeting :P This is probably the best picture with my co-worker, Dr. So Jin Lee


Dr. Roberts invited us all to a bbq party before Fabienne and Kira left. 
I was lucky to be there because it was the first one to be hosted in six years! 


these rose gardens at the park brighten up my day! what a secret date spot


July 4th is not July 4th without some meat and yummy food! 







some whale watching experience when Leo visited


Boston public garden between day and night 



After all, I am so blessed to be in Boston with amazing people, beautiful parks, and yummy food! Boston is probably one of the my favorite cities now because it is so walkable, clean, antique/historic, and strong spirited. I have not experienced the winter here yet so I don't know if I will be able to hold on my words after this year.  yet, I can assure that God has so much enstored for me in this city.  After spending two years in Korea being lost, miserable, and exhausted, He placed me here for a very clear purpose/reason that I do not know exactly at the moment. It's all by his grace that I can be here at this time point of my life because I do not deserve all this.  Praise the Lord.  I can't wait to see what will happen in next few years in this city! 

Blessed, 
Minju
