done with the partying, down with the work

long weekend is pretty much over. the formal and smite party are over, which means the rest of tonight and tomorrow are down to business. gotta work on that thesis, 033 design project, 813 final project, and figure out what's going on in 058. oh, it's going to be fun.

the weekend was awesome. on thursday night, rashida, sheena, maria, kate, and i went to ihop for a late night snack (~11 pm). we got lost on the way (again). but those belgian waffles and chocolate chip pancakes were definitely worth the trouble.

the formal was great. we got pretty wine glasses. i didn't go swing dancing because i didn't have a date and didn't want to dance with random sketchy guys. instead, laura, karen, and i went to see josh perform at a local arts festival. it was more of a live band thing than a performance, but either way it was cool. of course, we went to tosci's later in the evening and had josh make a milkshake for us. coconut almond chip + cocoa pudding. really hit the spot. since we have all decided josh is so awesome...we're planning on taking him out to dinner soon. josh also joined us for the fondue part of the formal evening at wilg. we had a good time, especially in making english a tonal language like chinese. yes, it's possible. pictures are on facebook: http://mit.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2017478&l=59309&id=700409

the fourth floor posse (yuki, irene, jingwen, me, and occasionally inna) planned on going out for lunch, but didn't end up going. i love our posse, we are definitely the only part of the house that starts the party every night. we procrastinate by moving from room to room and drinking tea...oh yes, and who can forget? FLOSSING! because most of us sleep rather late, we often socialize at wee hours in the morning...unless some strange noises down the hall ensue, and then we all close our doors and hide.

the smite party was fun. we ate lots of pasta and dessert (brownies, ice cream, and shortcakes), followed by a long game of apples to apples. and of course, we got awards!
