...in more ways than one
yet another day at sea... so today i had a global music exam..
started out by waking up at like 7, got ready, went had breakfast outside =) (this i think is my new favorite thing.. sit on the deck alone and eat breakfast), went to spanish, got my journal back... it looks like a spider's web i've never seen a paper soooo marked up before it was ridiculous oh and he only looked at the first of my 10 pages im sure of it because he only wrote on that one and said that i made the same mistakes through the whole thing which is not true because the first page was the one i wrote before i figured out how to change the language settings in word and umm you get better as you go along anyways... basically im pissed and dont care at the same time.. i really dislike this class mucho.
then i was pissed, i mean what a way to start your day and i needed to study for my exam so i didnt go to global studies and stayed in my cabin studying.. only that didnt go so well because we hit another rough patch in the waters.. we were rocking a bit again which made us all get seasick feeling again and not able to walk straight anymore.. we really dont have the sea legs we think we do because we really havent been moving to much lately... the way back over the atlantic is going to be BAD! so really i couldnt read my papers without feeling sick so studying really didnt end up going so well.. and boom before i know it its time for class.. the test wasnt too bad not the best but not the greatest.. i expect a B i think.. ill take it
then after the test i went and found kristi laying out so i went and joined her.. i finished the book i started reading yesterday finally... i got it from her in the spring about time... but while laying out i started reading a new book "the last song" we'll see maybe ill be able to finish it before we get back!
after sitting out for awhile we went and had lunch and then i went back to the room and napped for a long long time.. then woke up for dinner again.. we were sitting there eating and some kid comes and sits with us.. his name was ryan and reminded me soooo much both how he acted and how he looked like my cousin ryan.. it was weird! so many people remind me of people back home!
food today sucked! i didnt eat like anything today.. again showing how bad the way back is going to be... i basically had rolls a lot for both meals.. highlight was ice cream at lunch though! so after dinner came back and pigged out on a chewy bar and chips.. yesterday we counted our pops and we can have one every day but 7 of them and i was checking out my snacks and i think im doing pretty good on those too so i came to the realization yesterday i dont need to ration myself as much as before.. so i made up for my dinner of 4 rolls by eating more junk.. went to a pre-port lecturer and it was real boring.. then we had the longest preport meeting ever!!! 8-9:30!!! so apparently egypt should be realll interesting... there are some tidbits i might leave out till afterwards though just to prevent over freaking out people.. nothing bad but just more cautious here.. my first 3 days though i have full days of SAS trips so its all good..
then at 10 tonight we had a sea meeting to get ready for the sea olympics which are on sunday.
so i have a few comments/ questions of the day i havent posted yet:
- "why do i have to get a turkish visa if i already have a credit card"
- student 1: i wish they had crunchy peanut butter here
student 2: they cant do that because some people are allergic to peanuts
other tidbits:
- our passports have been getting stamped the past couple ports! only they are really lame and only say the date that we get there basically... bummer but ill have something at least from everywhere except spain and croatia so far, i know they are stamping them tomorrow dont know about morocco yet.. the trip is almost over its insane!!!
i feel like there was a bunch more i wanted to say but i dont remember..
rough day: spanish journal, seasick, test, bad food, lonnggg preport... yep rough
