Oh my god, you're getting to go to Harvard. Shut up and stop worrying.
And save your narcissism for the fall, when you will need it.
Seriously:
(1) Whichever choice you made, if you are the sort of person who is prone to second-guessing yourself -- which it seems you are -- you would be having the same feelings now. It's no big deal.
(2) Whichever choice you made, you will probably love it and have a great experience. That's the reaction 99% of students have to both colleges. You only get to go to one of them, so settle down and enjoy the ride you're on.
(3) It hardly qualifies as a universal truth -- opinions CAN differ -- but the vast, vast majority of people who visit both campuses prefer Harvard's to MIT's. MIT is quirky, modern, often a bit clumsy and ugly, but with great energy. Harvard is a vast jumble of styles, old and new, but many of the buildings and settings -- especially the river houses and the Yard -- are pretty darn stunning. And it has great energy, too. The chances that visiting would have changed your mind are awfully slim.
