I guess I will say Day B1


Hey Everyone


So this morning I got up for a wonderful bananas breakfast and then had global studies which was more than boring its the class everyone has to take and they actually broadcast it in your room so one day i just might stay in bed haha! The guest speaker talked 50 miles a minute so i missed 99 percent of what he said. But the good thing is B days are my easy days so the rest of the day was spend doing homework but the perk is I was in hot weather with a beautiful hot sun in a lounge chair just hanging out doing spanish and then sketching for art class and reading my book. it was amazing and it makes homework okay to do. I got everything i needed to get done done while getting a tan and having a beautiful view of the ocean. The seas have calmed down a lot so everyone doesn't look to drunk anymore haha!

I can finally find my way to my room with no problem which is a good thing. The food is not getting any better we have been living of bananas and rolls for the past 5 days becuase everyday they serve the same thing with different seasonings haha or just a different kind of pasta. I have been eating salad too but only when there is good dressing. Lets just say I have had enough bananas for the next 6 years haha but I will continue to have them and if they run out I think our group of six will have a heart attack haha. 

All the days blend together i live off A days and B days and Port days and all that fun stuff so I don't even know what day it really is anymore and its only been 5 days! My friends and I feel like we have known each other for so long and like i said its only been five days. I can already tell when it gets closer to the end I AM NOT going to wanna come home SORRY EVERYONE! but this is like a home to mee and its Amazing everything is amazing about it (except the food). I played ping pong for a little bit tonight and they opened the pool bar but you have to buy a card for 50 dollars for 15 drinks and you can only have 5 a day and there separated by 2 around five oclock then like 3 around 9 oclock so its kind of insane but I am going to get one so I have the option to have a nice bud heavy every once and a while because the rest of the beers are grossssss.

We made our plans for Spain today the 6 of us are going to Savia ( no idea how to spell it ) over night so that will be a lot of fun! We get there on Saturday! I can't wait. Sorry if these blogs seem boring but they will get better once i get into port! We started a nightly routine of going to the garden lounge to play cards during 1030 snack time ( which is also not to good) occasionally there is a good dessert but most of the time theres bananas as an option lmao.  This trip is more than amazing and I am more than greatful to be on it!


I hope everyone at home is doing well and I would love to hear from everyone :)

Spanish at 8 am and were loosing another hour so i have to get to bed! 4 days till SPAINNNNN :)

Love you All

Life at Sea

Yesterday was the start of SCHOOOOOL ( ya i know on a sunday and dreadful!) but it was interesting to see how my classses were going to go! The waves were bad people running to get sick everywhere!!! THe food is pretty sucky  my whole group of friends is living off water bread and bananas we have enough potassium for a life time!! Bagels with PB for breafast not to bad. This is litterally at dream yesturday we sat out on the top deck in the sun for 3 hours looking out at the horizon just saying ... "Guys this is our life for 3.5 more months"  It was absolutly amazing.
I think about how just a year ago I was counting down to leave and now im looking out outside at the water floating on by! We have 5 or 6 more days left at sea. I have a drawing class that I have to draw everyday somthing that i want to WHATEVER I WANT  ( I am a horrible drawer) but the professor says you dont have to know how to draw. Yesterday was the first day with no meetings at all so we had a lot more down time which was nice. Our days go bye A1 B2 A2 B2 days are the week dont matter. So today is B1 and I have one class today and im going to the gym tonight. It stinks pretty bad becuase  you can only get a machine for 30 minutes and thats it . Feel like you can't even get a workout but I'll just be working out on my own.
 
My friends and I are joining the volleyball and Dodgeball team which will be lots of fun! I think we passed the hurricane we had some rough waves yesterday but there pretty good today just choppy.  Today I have global studies and that will probably suck but I have it with all my friends so that will be good.  The professors on the ship are really interesting thing and have little things about them that are so cool but they are SOOO nice and pretty funny. 
 
Well Everyone can email me at Aesinclair@semesteratsea.net i love to hear from people so send the emails a long :)
