The MIT Chorallaries have this one amazing song that I have always wanted to find the lyrics for, but have been unable, so I will transcribe them for you!

After enjoying a nice evening in Kresge watching the MIT Logs perform, I returned home and immediately became bored. I began calling my friends trying to find someone who was doing something fun. I called Cathy and she was having a LAN party. I decided to go over and visit her at east campus in 2W. Putz. I found them in the Wood lounge all playing Age of Empires II. I wanted to join in so I took out my laptop and obtained a copy of the game. First, I was recommended to not try it in linux under wine so I booted into Vista. I got to EC at 11, and worked until about 3 trying to get the game to start. It was always throwing the error “Could not initialize graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatable with DirectDraw.” I tried everything from installing DirectX9.0c to uninstalling my video driver to trying everything else. There’s even someone on a mac playing it in a virtual machine. I gave up.
After everyone was done with their game, we all went around crufting. We wandered the tunnels collecting things. Cathy got two drum lids and a wooden box. I got myself a hex wrench. We then returned to EC after collecting our things and collected in Kevin’s room all with our laptops each doing our own thing.
Avoid Windows. And old Windows games.

Resonance

Craig came over to BC and requested me come down to add him to the guest list. Guest list? Since when did BC have a guest list? Well, I went down to desk to pick him up for a little bit of rockband. We were all hungry so we decided to go to Cosi in Kendall for dinner. After a nice meal, we made it to 10-250 for the Resonance concert. It was a nice concert with the Premium Blend from Ithica College, Logs, and Ridonkulous. They made a video parody of The Killers – Mr. Brightside. I just now watched the real video and realized why they did pick that video to parody. I enjoyed the concert… Not much else to say except for pictures.
