BU News
I’ve recently had a bit of blogger’s block lately. Nothing is really popping out to me to write about on the internet. So, I’m taking a small departure from my usual internet finds to post about life at BU so far.
Saturday morning, I wake up to my alarm at 5:15AM. I don’t usually get up that early, especially after partying the night before, but I was taking a 7AM bus back home to visit the family. No more than a few minutes later, fire trucks start descending on Beacon St. I mean, that’s usually nothing out of the ordinary, but what I thought was a small false alarm and one truck full of firefighters probably hating life to be awake so early turned out to be about a dozen or so trucks. I took a picture on my way out of the apartment to the T stop.
There wasn’t an ounce of smoke or burning blaze I could detect that morning, but it ended up being quite a fire that ended up killing two BU students. . My prayers go out to them. It’s been a tragic school year here at BU, with this incident making four deaths total, three of which happening practically next door to me. No one, young or old, should take their life for granted. I hope this is the last tragedy for a long while here on campus.
On a happier note, a movie is filming here on BU’s campus. There are trailers and wires all up in the campus, I don’t think many students have that much of a clue either. To my knowledge, our Freep hasn’t really picked up on it, although they’re always slow to the news tap. The movie, titled “21″, is actually going to be based off the book Bringing the House Down. Honestly, it was matter of time before that book got turned into a movie, am I right? Here’s the IMDB info on the movie.
Apparently it stars Kevin Spacey, Kate Bosworth, and Laurence Fishbourne. Big deal, huh? Maybe these are their trailers below?
I think this is the eating/backstage/food area.
Honestly, I don’t think this is that safe.
