Win Sam Stuff!

Win Sam Stuff! Waaaaaaaah! Youve moved on to 13 already!? I dont feel loved anymore! Waaaaaah! Yikes guys, chill! Youre like, 2 months away from MIT, its time to accept the fact that another class is about to start applying. I know its fun to complain on the internet, I do it all the time, but its time to move on. :) Speaking of classes applying to MIT for next year, I got back from work yesterday and spotted a tour group making the rounds so I hopped in and joined them. Its always nice to hang out with prospies and tell them how cool MIT is. Id been on the tour for, oh, idk, maybe 2 minutes, when the tour guide stopped, had everybody turn around and said Hey everybody, this is Snively. Everybody say Hi Snively! There was a very confused Hi . . . Snively? from the tour group as I stood there awkwardly, not quite sure what to do with myself. The tour proceeded and I actually quite enjoyed myself despite the fact that half way through I broke my permanent retainer on an ice cream sandwich. Still trying to figure out what to do about that but for now I have broken metal chillin in my mouth. I got back to my room and decided to spend some time exploring my external hard drive (a device which made losing my internal hard drive a couple of months back much less painful) and I found some fun videos that, unfortunately, have very little to do with MIT. But, through a great series of connections that Ive managed to make, I think Ive found a way to post all of the videos in such a way that not only do they tie back to MIT but they are all interconnected into themselves and form a feng shui of Youtube. First: I was on Youtube the other day and on the featured videos was our friend Matt Harding with an all new dancing video! Second: During CPW there was a certain hack that involved a certain 80s music video. Dan Sauza 11 and I both realized that it would just be unfair to walk by this hack without a small tribute dance, which we filmed. As you can see, were just as bad at dancing as Matt Harding. Third: Take note of Matt Hardings location at 3:14 *cough*pi*cough*. . . Sam Maurer came to visit last year and he and Mason performed a lovely rendition of the Sad Sad Toaster song from http://www.songstowearpantsto.com (ignore Laura yelling that its boring). I would like to take this opportunity to shamelessly plug this toaster video. Its been entered into a contest and if it has the most YouTube views by July 15th then Sam and Mason win all sorts of stuff and get to help record a new song for SongsToWearPantsTo. Go ahead and blog it, share it with friends, and enjoy the toastiness. On a sidenote, Interphase is getting ready to gear up. I can tell because there were an unusual amount of kids with parents milling around today. If youre in Interphase and youre ever bored during the weekend shoot me an e-mail and Ill show you around. snively [at] mit [dot] edu So long for now, Ill try to come up with something else to blog shortly.
