Im sitting here at my senior project, bored off my ass. I think they forgot about us. Here is a symbol of my boredom, Avery and i got to level 9 in text twist. Crazy. I think our score was something like 72000. We rock at that game even though she always makes up crazy words that arent words and her strategy rarely works. Its funny sometimes, but when you're really bored we both end up just bawling our eyes out. Yes, they've definitely forgotten about us.

So i'll be writing this post throughout the day and i dont know what kind of crazy mixed up things we'll end up doing, but it will definitely be crazy, CRAZY I TELL YOU.

Now, Avery is playing this crazy game where she has to click on the rows of bricks and she keeps on saying "damnit" and "i need a bomb" under her breath. We're sitting in the boss's office where we've been pretty much since we "accidentally got here late" at 10. oversleeping is a bitch, even when you dont oversleep. Then we sat in an office for 30 minutes while the guy rambled on and on and on about shit we didnt care about and already knew. Then he introduced us to people who didnt care about us and we'd already met. Some people here are attractive young professionals, some people arent. It just flows like that sometimes. Avery is really good at this game. I would lose it. Maybe thats why she's in kum laude and im not. Yes, thats exactly the reason, the ability to play Collapse (tm).

This internship has been valuable so far, however, its taught us many things. There's patience. Ours is learning how to survive while being worn extremely thin. Avery just lost the game, level nine, 132000 pts. She's good. Thats another thing, how to play games. We're really good at games. What else? Oh, how to make it seem like youre doing something. Like for instance, this nice guy named adam slick came in with some random lady and i was sitting here typing this post, but since i was typing feverishly he thought i might have been doing something remotely related to work. Nope, not at all. But mark these words; if you type feverishly then it seems like you're doing work. What i actually was doing is typing on aim and writing this post. Multitasking, its another thing this internship has taught me. Like for instance i can stand in the hallway and carry on a full fledged, monotonous conversation with someone while figuring out what kind of bread i want to have on my sandwich today at lunch. Whole wheat, in case you were wondering. What else? oh, its taught me that i probably never want to work in a quiet office setting ever in my life. Quiet=awful. I also never want to work in an office building again. ever. thats for certain. i hate the hum of the air conditioning instead of people talking and laughing. It sucks.

Okay well Avery and I are back from lunch now. You really wouldnt know the difference if you took a picture of us before and after other than the fact that avery is now playing mah jong instead of collapse. Okay but she's really good at computer games. I cant stress that enough. Even though mah jong makes zero sense to me. These fluorescent lights are giving me a headache. bigtime.

My sincere hope for the next three hours is, one, that they let us out crazily early, and two, that they dont make us do the milk carton bullshit that they pulled yesterday. because, i mean, cmon, that was bullshit.

That is all...
