5..4...3...2. Yes 2. That is all that's left. And this is where the story ends. Words fall short of explaining the joy ride experienced in the heart of America's captitol. But because every good story must have some sort of end, I, B will try one last time to do justice to The Intern. Our heels tapped L street and our bodies found comfort in fluffy coats and leather gloves upon the Dame's arrival. With one little blanchard on our right and another on our left, we entered the rooms that could not possibly fit our wardropes, chandeliers, and personal "Dorotas". No one told us we would be camping. But when you are a District Dame, things happen. There is no need to complain. Instead DC was our mansion. Hello Obama, Michelle, Brad Pitt, Lebron James, Sheryl Crow, Wil-I-Am, Harrison Ford, and Good Charlotte. We walk the high-road with you. Yes, we eat five course meals at Clyde's-on them-, get hit on when in our sweats, travel to exotic beaches off the jersey coast, frequent fly and lucky bars, hold press conferences in 403, land high end jobs with the world famous NPR, lodge in Valley Forge's finest exclusive resort, recieve visitors every other weekend, make debuts on CNN, travel by cab three times in a weekend, walk on foot to two different malls, snack only on Thomas Sweet icecream, get interviewed/followed/reported on for random reasons, hold private ab classes, cause paparrazi to start gossip, go thru public breakups, and yes we keep in constant contact via secret gchatting and facebook messaging hourly. We are the District Dames. We talk too much, we love too much, we fight for eachother, we fight with eachother, we stay up late, we are independant, we are needy, we are sure, we are scared, we never cook, we love a crush, we are roommates, we are friends, we love DC, we are the District Dames. Our fifteen minutes of fame as a girl group may be over. But this diamond road is slowly turning to gold. Our solo careers are just beginning. Goodbye DC. B.

Mac&Cheese PLEASE
The man with the recipe
Its not so easy to mix when you have so much
B Here. Suprise suprise. Its me again. All that is left to be told today is the story of the mac and cheese. Ever seen a popcorn bowl the size of a small whale? Ever seen a popcorn bowl the size of a small whale filled with noodles? Ever swam in a whale-sized popcorn bowl full of noodles? Me either. Would be fun though. But yes we did make more mac and cheese than has probably ever been made in the Barlow center, well make that more than has ever been made at once in the whole world. In fact it might be guiness book record worthy. College kids, homeless.. need a cheap meal. We can help ya out, 20 dollars is all it takes to feed you for an entire semester. So if you're reading this, head on over to the barlow. We got ya covered, mac and cheese is on us. Just bring your own hot chocolate, we got banned. Wish you were here. District Dames.

B here. It is the morning after. As the alarms blared this am, our bodies were forced to arise from the deep celebrations of the Inauguration and awake to the reality that we are working women. Depression. But DC couldn't survive without our necessary interning skills. Work on Ladies. The events of the last few days proved to be unique to each intern. While A was escorted to her spot at the inauguration by policemen and hackled by standing men and furious cutting-the-line women, S was stacked in a herd for nearly two hours before being revealed that her ticketed seats had been given up. However thanks to fate and fatigue S barely managed to make it to her area minutes before the address. L's story is left to be told. All that is known is it forced her to retrieve to her bed immediately following the event where she remained the rest of the night and on into the morning. She may still be there for all we know. M and B proved laziness pays off. After sleeping in and leisurely walking to the inauguration, they left the event with unique photo opts, free pretzels, and a once in a lifetime interview, though it was "too cold to cry" according to CBN.com. Regardless of the experience-no matter how numb our fingers and toes were, how fatigued our bodies felt, or how claustrophobic we felt amongst a crowd of 2 million-the interns were a part of history. And we wouldn't of missed it for the world. (well unless we didn't live in DC). Wish you were here. District Dames.

Obamanation
Waiting, Waiting, Waiting.. but so worth it.
Thank you boys for the hot (cold) chocolate.. they are the best
We had no idea what we were in for..dancing shag hair man, frozen toes, legs under blankets, bonding, "we want sound", Usher/Beyonce/John Legend/Sheryl Crow/Shakira/Mary J. Blige/WillI.AM/and Obama of course.
Theme of the concert.
Obama van. Can life get better? Nope probably not.
I lied. Obama Cupcakes and White House cake.. just beat the Obama van.
We get to live here:)
Lincoln or Obama? Freaky.
She's a lucky lucky woman.
Obamanation. We are ready.
B Here. Well life is good in the District of Columbia. After nearly 10 hours of standing our ground in the cold DC weather, we left happy to have seen some of the greatest artists the United States has produced. And by that I mean Garth Brooks, Beyonce, Stevie Wonder, Shakira, Usher, John Legend, U2 (although not from the US) and many many more. Not to mention we heard inspirational words from Steve Correll, Jack Black, Ashley Judd, Denzel Washington, Joe Biden, Samuel L. Jackson and the Pres-elect Obama. Worth the 20 degree humid cold, several hours spent sitting and standing amongst hundreds of thousands of people, and dancing behind the born-in-the-70's-still-feeling-the-groove-man?? Must we even ask.. of course the District Dames are hardcore for the DC scene. Inauguration...We own you. Wish you were here. District Dames.
