there is so much drama with this skit thing. well, not really drama, just a pain. it was supposed to take place at the christmas party this monday. then i found out today that the boss wasn't even going to be there because of some trip to china. we then got an email from chip saying they were going to put off the party until either the 15th or 19th, but he would still like to have the interns do their "skit" tomorrow because we "worked so hard on it." this would have been horribly awkward because it's a top ten list that would take about thirty seconds to read. at least before at the party we would all be part of a performance thing. luckily we got an email later from maren saying it would now be the 16th, our last day. but candice will be gone by then (thank goodness) and mikel may or may not be here because she was planning to leave a few days early, leaving brak and i to fend for ourselves. i requested my two remaining personal days off so next week will be a nice four day weekend. i'm not counting that there will be snow, so most likely it will be a repeat of thanksgiving.

it's 6:25 am and in five minutes i will be out the door on the way to baltimore. the ride will be long, dark, and cold. i had always imagined this to be the worst day of my life. i'm scared for the stupid essay. scared of the games section that i will just freeze up like i did a few weeks ago. oh well. there is no cancelling the test if i feel i don't do so well. alright, away we go.

my waitress has a really bad black/yellow eye and it's so hard to look at her without feeling like i'm staring right at it. the lsat ended about thirty minutes ago and i'm about to treat myself to some delicious maryland crab cakes. my neck aches so bad from staring down at a desk for hours and hours straight. it was hard, but i kept my cool during it all for the most part. started to lose focus during one of the sections toward the end, but sort of got back into it. also on the essay, i wrote "of" instead of "that." don't ask how i managed to screw that up. i don't feel like i did any better than usual, but i do feel good it's over. so, amazing games i'm missing: vtech v. fsu, cu v. tx, and usc v. ucla. right now it's tx 35, cu 3 (courtesy of karen). at this place in baltimore's harbor called city lights and eating one of the best bowls of clam chowder i've ever had. and i know my chowder. certainly rivals anything from sf. now i'm on to the crab cakes. this city has got good food like it's got scary ghettos full of black people. lots that is. wow. i'm going all out here. next up: chocolate swirl cheesecake. wow. wow, wow, wow. unarguably one of the best places i've eaten at since being here. no lsat, great food. life doesn't get better than this. i guess if i were in a lodge eating this and my board was waiting outside for me, then it would be better. but this will certainly do. it's sure cold enough outside to be boarding. it's freaking freezing. and the damage is...(drum roll)...too expensive for one person to ever spend. as jerry would say, "this doesn't look right. i'm not hungry, why am i buying all this food?" back to va. will i ever return to the lovely state of md, the charming, sometimes ghettoish city of baltimore? let's hope so.
