smoke out

classes and lunch and a nap to start my day just like every other day at sea with classes.  after my nap i really tried to wake myself up because i wanted to lay out because my tan is gone and i only have a week to reestablish it.  i sat out for about an hour and a half and then i spent about 45 minutes swimming with Cal in the big pool.  after swimming i went inside to meet kristi for lunch. we ate with cynthia and steph today and it was real nice we sat there for an hour and a half and  just talked after we finished eating it was nice.  then it was time to get to  work on some more homework. i was somewhat productive on some of my spanish journaling i have to finish up in the next three days.. so really thats all ill be doing till like monday..

 

so i had an interesting moment tonight... my computer charger has been giving me problems about every other week  with not wanting to charge my computer.. lucky for me cynthia has an  HP too so ive been able to use her charger during its stuburn periods.. well its been having one again for the past couple of days and so i was trying to make it work again and instead of working it desides to start smoking.... A LOT!!!!!!!! i freaked out!!!  i literally froze i was so startled and had no idea what was happening or what to do.. i thought it was about to catch on fire in my hand  and that i was going to sink the ship.. literally this was my first thought.. then i snapped out of it and was like crap what the heck do i do to stop this.. so like 5 seconds after it started smoking i realized it would be the smart idea to unplug it...  it stopped all is fine, the alarm didnt go off but it gave me the biggest scare ever!!! so now i have to rely on cynthia for all my computer charging needs and the coomputer lab for long periods of computer time.. yipee..

 

 after that little episode we had a sea meeting where we got ice cream cake and cookies!! so exciting. 

 

and that is it for my day.. tonight there is supposed to be a good meteor shower, they told us to go look at it somewhere between 11 and 2 so hopefully i can see something cool before i go to sleep!

 

 another time change tonight!

new difference ohio 3 hours behind, and texas 4 hours behind! (i think thats the last time ill have to convert for both since sean is done at work on friday!  woohoo) really all that means is im getting closer and closer to being home. only 8 more days on the ship!
