"I thought I liked snow," Angela Carlos laughed as she explained her thought process in applying to Boston University. The 20-year-old brown-eyed, brunette junior, with bangs swept across her forehead, is tan and wearing a red jumper. She made the move from Southern hot spot Atlanta to Boston more than two and a half years ago.
Though the city has a low of 1 degree, Carlos doesn't regret her decision. According to Carlos, she wanted to escape the South and leave everything familiar behind.
Enrolled in the College of Communication's photojournalism program, Carlos has always loved photography. She also enjoys writing and thought the journalism curriculum would be a "good combination" of her passions.
Carlos, who fell in love with Massachusetts' capital while on vacation with her family when she was 8, says that her experiences growing up in the South have been much different from those of her friends. She regularly visits the Boston Common to take photographs and paint the scenery, and she has hosted a radio show on WTBU for the past few semesters; the program's title is "Pet Rocks."
