not overwhelmed, not underwhelmed...just whelmed.

This week was little less busy in terms of not-work things, but VERY busy with work things. It was nice to do a lot of substantial projects and feel like I was contributing to the bigger picture of the company. As an intern, there are days when I am so bored that I begin to sort pens and clean in between all of the computer keys (that happened...), and there are some days when staying until midnight wouldn't be enough time to finish everything. It feels like there's no perfect medium. Oh well.

Serious picture: One of my favorite monuments to date - the Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial. Quite possibly the best memorial to visit at night, as well. Quotes lined the walls. My favorite quote (not pictured here) was "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

Also, there was a little fox running along the wall and everyone freaked out and took pictures, seeming to forget that they were at a historic monument. Hah.

Went to the Congressional Women's Softball Game to support breast cancer research. I didn't even know that such an event existed. And these women were good. It was several big-shot journalists from the press corps (think Politico, CNN, Huffington Post, etc.) versus congresswomen. Very enjoyable evening made complete with free popsicles. The press corps won the game kind of easily...but our representatives put up a good fight. 

Note: post title is a reference to 10 Things I Hate About You. For some reason, I watched like four movies this week when I usually never watch movies at all.
