If you don’t yet use Picasa, I highly recommend it. It’s a one-click Photoshop. I still like my Photoshop, but now I don’t have to tweak 4 different settings to get a picture to look nice. All I gotta do is feel luck with Picasa.

Katie Folz got married in Pittsburgh this past weekend. Pictures are uploaded. I didn’t forget my camera this time, but I think I also was a little photo hog. Sometimes I just lose perception of things around me, and all I focus on is getting a good shot. I was in the way of the real wedding photographer a couple of times, and it made me feel really bad.

Cathering Borovicka’s getting married at the end of May in Maine. Randi is getting married in October in Charleston. AJ’s getting married next summer. Lewis has a baby on the way. It’s only the Governor’s School people who are getting married. The only other friend of mine who got married was Jenn, and she and Robby had been dating since 11th grade. So why do govies have such a high propensity for getting married? Or is it just my class?

A couple of people are coming up here to MIT/Boston next year. Phil Lane is going for his Dr. Phil title here, and a family friend who goes way back to West Lafayette, Indiana is coming here for college (though she likely will go to the dark side and go to Harvard).

GRT decisions come out next week. I’m in the running for Simmons, Next House, New House 3, New House 4. I listed all 4 on my preferences sheet, which may or may not have been a mistake … I definitely have favorites among those 4, but I guess I’d still take the position if I didn’t get my favorite. I’m just being my usual pessimistic self thinking that I’ll get screwed over and not get anything because I’m not in any of those places’ top tier.
