Several days after the majority of diaries from Yearly Kos have been posted, I come bearing a few more pictures. I had originally planned to travel back to where I go to college and post from there, but after finding out my new place has some issues (lack of a/c, the toilet doesn’t work, and the internet connection sucks as well) I had to travel all the way back to my parents house, where I am finally free to get on the internet and post while wearing my pajamas.
To put it simply, the YKos 2007 was amazing. Great people, great panels, great speakers, great times. Sure the alcohol was a bit expensive and a salad with cucumber and tomato was $8.00, but several people were so kind to me when they saw that I was a college student.
