So it's hitting me.
Maybe it's a product of my recent but shortlived boy situation, or maybe I've just been too far from my loves for too long, but this evening I seem to not be able to pick myself out of this rut. I can't stop thinking about how much I miss everyone and how sad I am that aforementioned boy had to leave. It's funny, because I really only knew him for a few weeks, but somehow something clicked between us. If only I could keep him from leaving. But no, he's gone, and I'm alone again with no urge to find another. Sometimes I am so hopeless. Sometimes I would rather think about the beautiful memories I've already made than create new ones.

I am too tired to write. But I feel like I need to.
IRCS is over and now I'm at Carnegie Mellon for my rest-of-the-summer internship. I really like Pittsburgh so far, much to my surprise. I went to the Natural History and Art Museum today with some other interns (there are about 10 total) since we have Friday off every other week. We're split into two teams, and we alternate schedules of working in the lab and distributing surveys outside in various areas of Pittsburgh. So far it's been a lot of fun and not too too much work. The people are nice but it's hard getting to be comfortable with some of them because they've already gotten pretty close in the two weeks they had together while I was in Philadelphia. So that kind of sucks, but I'm working on it. Consequently, I reallyreally miss all my friends back home, with home meaning LA and Portland. I'd like to not try so hard to fit in with people. It was really great at IRCS where we all in the same situation, not knowing anyone and trying desperately to find a niche, and we ended up all becoming friends with each other. I miss those kids too. Hopefully I'll see at least some of them sometime in the future.
Sorry for being so boring. Museums are exhausting.

IRCS Summer Workshop
So here I am in Philadelphia at UPenn for this 2-week workshop in cognitive neuroscience. It's been more work than I expected, and I'm pretty much exhausted by the end of each day, but I've still somehow found the energy to be social and make friends with all the awesome people here. See my most recent fb albums for photos of my favs.
I will update more soon, but I've got to run to class. I just wanted to post a little tease for the moment.
