It's Over!

Wow, I slept for thirteen hours yesterday (I set my alarm clock for 10 pm instead of 10 am, whoops) and I'm still feeling really tired. All the girls left Saturday morning - it was really sad to see them go. Just wait until I get around to talking about the people who have replaced them. Grr.

Well, yeah, as I've mentioned up above, WTP has finally finished. It was a great program and I'm sad that it's over. Maybe just because I don't want to go back to school. XD This coming week will be both good and bad. Good because I can relax and not worry about late nights. Bad because we have to write recommendation letters for people, and that will be a bit annoying. Good because I pretty much have the 7th floor back to myself. Bad because of the Democratic National Convention.

OH MY GOODNESS! The DNC people suck already and I hate them. My birthday was on Friday and I have come to the realization that turning 20 makes you old and bitter. WTP girls are high schoolers, but they are all so cool. The junior statesmen staying at our dorm are a different matter altogether. They are all snobby little rich kids, and I hate them and I wish they would all go back home. o___O; Seriously, I don't think I've ever felt such innate dislike for a group of people, ever. I don't like how McCormick has suddenly become the 'junior statesmen dorm'. What are they thinking?! Maybe it's a good thing that I'm going home in a week.

Tonight we had a staff dinner to celebrate surviving WTP at the Cheesecake Factory. That place is great. :D Although they always give out waaaay too much food. Oh well. Leftovers. One of the greatest things about WTP is the option to get out and do stuff. I walked all over Boston so much in this past month. I went to read in Borders three times in one week. I went to the North End. I went to the Aquarium. We went for dim sum in Chinatown in one huge horde. I walked down the Esplanade more times this past month than I ever have in all my time at MIT. Boston is an awesome city - I don't think there's anywhere in the world quite like it. There are so many young people here - makes me wonder what will happen to me when I become old. Surely I won't be here my whole life...?

Jim reminded me of the existance of the New Media Center, which is totally exciting because it's on campus, accessible to MIT students, and has scanners! Whee! I went and scanned a couple pictures yesterday, which was great. I've been kind of behind on the whole scanning/updating website thing. I did a biggish update the other day, and I'll do another one once I get more pictures scanned. This makes me so happy. :D Guess it also helps that my family's going on vacation to Canada in August and I get to go along. I don't know, I don't think I've ever been excited to spend two whole days in a car, driving up through Maine. XP

Mike finally came back from "the Southwest", so evenings are a little more interesting now. Not that they weren't interesting before... It was just different. It's just too bad that the sound for his computer's broken. He cannot fully appreciate the excellence of Domo-kun and Daikenkai... Even if the combination of the two was originally his idea.

It's weird - I've been drawing Thraxxin and Jesper together a lot lately (well, lately is a lie - they've always been drawn together). But I've always insisted that they come from different dimensions, and shouldn't even exist together. Sadly enough, I'm starting to think that they make an awfully cute couple. Mostly sad because they are both guys. Well, everyone thinks that Jesper is a girl, but, uh, yeah.... My barely stifled love for shounen ai is manifesting itself here. o_o; Perhaps I shall have to make up a new story which includes both of them. Or something. How troublesome. Reminds me though that I should get back to development with the Del'bren'shazoren sisters. That was an interesting project that I was thinking about last summer. *sighs* Oh well. I guess thirteen hours of sleep wasn't enough for me to recover. Back to the land of unconsciousness goes I. Laters.
