Moving On, Moving Back!

So, tomorrow is Friday again! This weekend I'll be going back to Baltimore to see my friends there and get some business done for the Vocal Chords and APO. I'll also be seeing The Last Airbender movie, although I've recently heard it's complete crap :( which makes me very sad. A whopping 08% on Rotten Tomatoes. But I still have to see it nonetheless! Must remain loyal to the series... Hopefully it won't feel like pulling teeth. Thankfully this is a holiday weekend - woo for no work on Mondays! Hate Mondays. Like Garfield.

So, yesterday I had to make an explicit effort to not do something after work in order to get home at a reasonable hour and make sure my laundry gets done! Haha. My housing, EHS, has joined with a local launderer to offer FREE laundry services for any residents, so I took them up on that. I carried my laundry 3 blocks to Jade Cleaners where they washed and folded my laundry, packaged it in a very neat rectangular pattern that looks oh-so-asian (like square watermelons!), and delivered it back to my dorm the next day! It was like $22 of laundry for free, so, woo! Very helpful for a busy intern like me. I also made a point of going to bed early last night, and actually eating at home as opposed to the more expensive option of eating out each night (like I've been doing).

At work, I'm finally moving on to another project, and submitting my first project's code. I'm really excited, because I got to choose a project that (I hope) suits me better! I'm getting into work much more now, and the hours pass more quickly. I kind of feel like I've already graduated college and I'm ready to take a full-time position, or continue this one, for a while. Hah, but so much more I want to do in life! Like work for a philanthropic non-profit, ride the 4K for cancer?, and travel the world. Oh and skydive. And get my pilot's license. Ah, too much to do. :) Keeps life fun!

For my lunch break today I met Catiy from the Vocal Chords in the city, who is visiting her boyfriend for the week! It was so good to see her again. I took her to the delicious patisserie Financier, even though it was my second time for two days. We caught up and shared adult work stories... :). Best of luck to you, Caity!

After work I met Maria from EHS and Wolfgang at MoMA to eat and see a bit of their gallery. "Modern" art ends up being a very misleading term! They really should redefine it, since apparently many people think the "modern era" of art has already finished... Lol. Stlil, pretty impressive stuff there - just not what I expected!

And tonight we had drinks in honor of Maria's 21st birthday tomorrow :). I won't be here, so we made sure to party together tonight while we can! A lot of fun. Hopefully I can wake up tomorrow!...
