I am now on the first flight of my day! We are on our way to the Milan airport from Greece. Today has been pretty uneventful. I woke up "late" at 10am, ate breakfast, watched it rain for only 15 minutes, packed my stuff in my backpack (which is now extremely full!), washed my hair, checked out of the hotel, and waited by the pool for a while. The others came soon after and then we went to a restaurant called Kavos so that people could use the WiFi on their iPods and stayed there for a while. When we got back, we waited for about 15 minutes and then our Taxi driver showed up and we headed to the airport. It didn't take long to get through security or wait to board the plane and now I have no idea how much longer we have on our flight. Hopefully not much. When we get to Italy, we have to go through security a second time because we need to get our passports checked and find our gate. It should be interesting. The sunsets in the sky are the best by the way.... They have such intense colors above the clouds!

It is a little past midnight and we are finally in the Madrid airport to "sleep" for the night. I am so tired and cold and hungry so I doubt I will be getting much sleep. I am so excited to be in "my own" bed! And have meals provided for me. That trip was definitely more expensive than I thought it was going to be. But it was fun (mostly)! Let's hope tomorrow goes as smoothly as the rest of the trip has because I have class at 9am and I really hope I don't miss it! We are all going to be so tired tomorrow! I am going to attempt to get some sleep laying across three chairs...

Well it's 5am and we are still at the airport because the Metro doesn't start until 6 and we all thought that it started at 4 but who knows. My back is killing me because of how I was sleeping and I got a total of about 20 minutes of sleep. I kind of hope that we are back in time for my class but none of us know when the buses leave so its basically a wait and see kind of thing. If I make it to class, I bet it is going to be so hard to stay awake! On another note, my sunburn is so itchy! it is finally turning into a tan but it is so freakin itchy! It's at the stage where it still hurts but it itches like crazy. It's not as bad as it was before though! So thats good. The blisters are now scabs and it is SUPER attractive. It's actually probably not as bad as I think it is but I just don't like it. My left eye has swollen every time I have slept for long periods of time and then it doesn't fully open for about an hour.I am just so excited to take a nice nap after classes and lunch!
Ah! So Celine Dion just came on the radio in the airport and I wish I was in a car so that I could sing obnoxiously along with it. She has a great voice. Speaking of singing, I might audition for Glee because you can submit a video of yourself singing online so it would be easy for me to do. I am undecided though because I have a huge fear of singing in front of people alone, but this is on my bucket list, as well as trying out for American Idol. I want to not have any stupid regrets in life. No regrets, no fear. (remember my no fear shirt dad? I think I need a new one)
Alrighty, so it is now 6pm and everything today went incredibly smooth! I got to class on time and I even got to eat breakfast! I haven't had time to take a nap yet and I think at this point it isn't worth it cause I won't get to sleep when I want to later tonight. I have had a really good day and it was so much fun catching up with people and hearing some of their stories from their vacations! I was reminded today that tomorrow is the halfway point with school which is so exciting! AND I even got charms for Greece and Italy (Andrea, Amanda, Mom!) yayy!!
