Only two hours after the event ended, I turned in my rally story.

Go me. :)

Now let's see how much editing is involved... O_O

ETA: Unfortunately, I think I also picked up a sunburn from standing around for two hours and doing about 1/4 of the march (before realizing that no way in hell could I keep up, and I'd best drive there.) And silly me, no sunscreen, because I'm so rarely outdoors I never think to use it.

My lips hurt. Meh.

OMFG I am so tired. Covering that rally and then writing and editing the story over the last 10 hours has totally drained me. I'm not quite up to snuff as it is, and then I got stupid and tried to go with the marchers from campus to downtown. Baaaad idea. My legs feel like overcooked penne.

I still have homework to do, too. But it ain't gonna happen. I'll try to finish my brief for my law class on my lunch break tomorrow, but all the readings are going to have to wait until the weekend. I'm just stuffing dinner down my gullet and then passing out.

And I missed Lost, too, dammit.

I think I'm going to take a break from taking stories for a week. I need to recharge.

ETA: Well, that answers the question of what I'm doing this summer. I just saw that the intership I applied for has been taken off the site. And not even a phone screen, dammit. Ah, well. It was a gamble, really. I knew it was big, I just hoped I was big enough for it.

And though I like the sound of the Editorial Page internship at the Everett Herald, I just don't quite feel ready for it--it requires a lot more editorial experience than I have. So I'm pretty much stuck this summer. I either take that filler class plus another term of the Front (!) or I take the summer off. For mental health reasons, it's probably better to simply close up the bachelor pad for the summer and chill out at home.

This does, unfortunately, mean I won't be graduating until the end of next summer, assuming I can get an internship then. I wonder what they do with students who can't find an internship? Hm. I suppose since I'll actually be done with everything else, I could just apply for a regular job somewhere and see if that counts.
