27: I wanna go to six flags

I have no idea what this building is, but it was in downtown DC and I thought it looked neat. I really liked the double circular corner thingies (there's definitely a proper term for them, but I don't know it).

Title is true and accurate. I wanna go to six flags. Six Flags America is the one that's in the DC area, and it's accessible by transit (it's two hours, but that's doable). Tickets are like $30, which blew me away, and I freaking love rollercoasters. I couldn't get any of the other interns to go with me, because they're capital L Lame, but one of the younger engineers said he would go with me. It was too late to go this weekend, and I really wish I had looked like 5 weeks ago, so I could have rallied the interns to go, but I should be able to pull it off before I leave (I've got 3 and a half weeks left). The other interns are all leaving either next friday, the 1st, or the following friday, the 8th, which means I've got a nice chunk of time where the number of interns is one, and it's me. Honestly, I think that week and a half will be comparatively boring, but I should at least have work, given the massively reduced intern workforce.
