School Story
1. 2 years Bush Hall (Mrs. Tingsley, 'bells'!); cinderblock walls, what am I doing here? Making friends, getting used to New England, ironing hair.
2. Jr. Yr. in London at the Reynolds Hotel in S. Kensington, 66 steps to bedroom., a year of great expansion, my true education. How lucky I was to get that experience.
3. sr. yr apt. at 128 Curtis St.; all rules out the window - pants allowed on the hill & easy pass/fail courses,; unique January trip to Russia.
4. Life as a drama major- Cup and Saucer plays, Arena theatre (Abel, Baker, Charlie exits), hanging around theatre majors, gossip, yoga in class! stimulating class discussions. Loved that creaky wooden building.
5. Odds /n Ends: 1965 Black Out on the East Coast, Tuna sandwiches at the Kursaal; weird stuffed Jumbo, escapes to Harvard Square - why wasn't Davis Sq. hip then like now? waiting for buses in the the cold;
1969 protests & marches.,'the times they are a-changing' (but, as always, what to wear?)
