So my Wolf Trap internship is almost over. Saaaad day. My last day is the 20th, and I only have 5 working days left.

In equally sad news, my other internship is not ending until the last day of the semester... It's not actually as frustrating as it was originally... at least not in the same way anymore. Now it's less frustrating because of a lack of direction for my tasks, and is more frustrating because of technical difficulties. I'm trying to get a newsletter sent out via email for the first time and have done everything by myself from scratch. I've even created our very own email address, which we've never had before, from which we will be sending such things as newsletters and other official Potomac correspondences in the future. However, as it stands right now, the actual newsletter that I've created is a huge file... I don't remember exactly what it was, but even as a pdf it would take forrrr...everrrr... to load. It's been a week by week struggle to figure out how this stuff is done and there really isn't anyone to help me. Good thing I'm not an idiot I guess and have been able to mess around until I can make things work. Nothing is simple when you don't know what you're doing, especially with computers.

I didn't really have anything to post today, so look at these pretty pictures from the Cherry Blossom Festival last Saturday:
