After 10:30AM today (MATHFINALEW)… it will be summer for me! I should tell you what is next on my agenda (besides a few races/maybe a tri)
A cruise with my family. I will turn 19 while in the middle of the ocean, on a boat. Kinda cool. Kinda not cool.
Wait.. not cool? Correct. Last year I went on a cruise with my brother, Bill. (Actually his name is William, and yes, our last name is Smith, so that would make my brother WILL SMITH!)
Anyways.. that is my broski Will Smith.
He graduated from PSU and I graduated from high school. Our graduation gift from our parents was to go a cruise to Mexico & the Grand Cayman Islands. Well first of all 1 weird thing that happened..
Everyone thought we were on our honeymoon.
So that was awk. We shared a room and our room cleaner was like “Mr. & Mrs. Smith!!!” then we told him we were brother and sister and he was like “Ohhhh should I separate your bed?” Hahaha.
But that wan’t the bad thing.
The bad thing was that I was sick. The whole cruise. Sea sick to the max.
People say that you don’t even feel like you are on a boat. Wrong for me. Not only did I feel like I was on a boat the whole time, I felt like I was going to puke. I was dizzy and I was walking around lopsided! Not cool. I am afraid of that happening again! I took some medicine and it made me feel worse. I was a drugged zombie with the munchies!
I was afraid to get seriously ill but I remembered a really great scripture:
“And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age”. Matthew 28:20
Besides that issue, the cruise was awesome!
Snorkeling with sting rays anyone?!
Or swimming with dolphins in Mexico. :]
So that is what’s up next for my summer! I will have to do a post on what I am doing this whole summer (WORK).
Now I am off to study and take my last final.
Have you ever been on a cruise? Did you get sea sick?
