An introduction, an explanation, and most importantly a test of iPod blogging software.

Somehow you have found your way here. Hooray! Another hit!

As promised in the title:

Hi. I'm Dex. I'm one of the two titular nevermores, and tomorrow I leave for Loyola Marymount University for CTY. CTY, for the uninitiated among us, is nerd camp. While teenagers with sense sleep through summer or make money or build relationships or whatever it is that teenagers do, some of us take college level courses and live in dorms. Usually, chaos, love, friendship, and hilarity ensue. Occasionally, some learning goes on, or so I've been told. Mostly, though, it's about children with varying degrees of social retardation learning to be social, and ordinary nerds doing extraordinary things. I'll be chronicling the hijinks at LMU (where I'm taking electrical engineering), while my coauthor, who will reveal herself shortly, will regale you with stories of Johns Hopkins University, JHU.

So, what the hell are we doing here?

CTY is 19 days long, according to Jackie (I myself cannot count past 10, so I do not guarantee this number). We hope to provide a day-by-day glimpse of two completely different CTY experiences. By day-by-day, I mean whenever I can get access to wi-fi. My coauthor, however, has an iPhone, so if she doesn't do a post every day, she's just being lazy. I make no guarantees on how well this will work, but we're going to try.
