By the time I got to Trinity Lutheran for the orientation I was having lunch and dinner at the same time. I ate mashed potatoes with chopsticks. Enough said. I made some last minute phone calls to some friends to get mailing addresses. Julia and her parents dropped by to pay me a visit. Ruth bought some beers at the store and I drank them in the back of a rental car. Do not judge me. When I got back to Trinity Lutheran of course I was locked out past curfew and slightly tipsy. Julia and _i made enought racket to wake a RA so I stumbled to bed. At around two I had to pee so friggin bad. I was sleeping nekkid and had to run down the hall in nothing but a towel barely covering my arse.
I had a dream that all the items in my luggage got misplaced somehow. Lucklily for me it was just a dream. I woke up and had some breakfast minus the chopsticks. The buses actually got there early to get us to the airport. Big change from the day before. I sat on the concrete when I got in Seattle for so long I was scared I was going to get the piles.
By the time we gto seventy some odd kids though security we were at the gate THREE whole hours early. I got a little lump in my throat boarding the plane but I am not a punk I swear.
Did I mention that 70 kids on an international flight is insane? People saw us coming and parted like the Red Sea. I had an aisle seat all the way to Japan. It has its up and downsides. If you are claustrophobic you are in heaven. If you are trying to sleep and every fifteen minutes some kid is asking you if they can get up....well....it is a problem.
