Forgot to upload yesterday. So here's day 4 AND 5.
Hey Guys! (Day 5)
Momma, I haven't mentioned those things because they haven't happened yet. :( Today, we went to Pigeon Creek, and I got my project out of the way. Then after lunch, we went snorkeling at this place called French Bay. I had forgotted my underwater case that day, so I couldn't take underwater pics, dammit! It was beautiful, too. But I burned my back even moreso than it is now. :( My eyes are now fully bloodshot, but not so bad yet. My forehead is peeling now. And Mom, I am drinking every night, but not getting drunk. I don't even get tipsy. Just social drinking. 40 Year Old Virgin was... so-so. I didn't care for it much. After that, Anthony and I went to bed, but Jesse stayed out until 2 am! I'm surprised he was able to work today! Tonight the bar is open again, so I'll go there with my friends and hang out. And Momma, I am being sun smart. I put on sun screen 3-4 times while I'm in the field, and I practically bathe in Aloe whenever I get back, but I'm still peeling. :( Oh well, I tried.
Bec, how in the world did your parents let those BOYS stay at your house til 6am? Didn't your dad/mom have a stroke that BOYS were in your house at that late at night? eesh.
Tomorrow, we're doing 'junk beach' where we make those structures in the tide. No word on cliff diving or bat shit cave yet. :( I know I'll take good underwater pics when we go cliff diving, cause that's the same day we go snorkeling in the bay too. I really want to come home. I'm starting to get annoyed with all the people here. Not their fault, at all, but because I've been surrounded by them for the past 6 days, we're all starting to get on each others nerves.
So....... I did laundry today. I'll have just enough clothes to last me through the week. NE ways, I better go. I need to upload this to LJ, I forgot to yesterday. I love you and miss you guys! I hope you all are doing okay! Love you guys!

DAY 4:
Hey Guys!
Bec - I have been getting your messages, that's why I've been sending
them to Rach's email address. And how funny! You'll be watching Rocky,
and I'll be watching 40-year old virgin! Since the bars are closed
tonight, we're having a movie party in the lab. That doesn't mean we
won't be drinkin though! I got a whole other bottle of coconut rum to
drink! =D Oh, and I'm only a bit mad at April/Sarah/Ashley. Sometimes
they do stupid things that tick me off, but then again, so do you and
Rachel sometimes. :p I just have to learn to accept the good with the
bad, you know?
Mom/Dad- I miss you guys! The flight is scheduled to arrive at 11pm in
Pittsburgh. So that's the details on that. I'm glad you're all doing
okay.
NE who, today was sort of fun, but not really. Since it was Sunday, our
group split in half. Half of us went to church, and the other went to
this old plantation site from the 1780's. I went to the plantation
site, because I really didn't feel like getting religious at a Baptist
Church (no offense, Bec). I took many pics. My first card is almost
full! Then we came back and had lunch with the church bunch. Then our
group split up again. Either to go to another plantation, or to go out
to Cut Island to look at some geology. Obviously, I went to Cut Island.
It was great! I learned how to do 'strike/dip' with the brunten
compass, then me and some friends went out and hiked along the
coastline. It was gorgeous! I finally tried out my underwater case, and
it works okay.
Tonight, we have lab, then movie night. I found out why I've been
distant with some people lately, it's cause I miss you guys so much! I
can't wait to come home, then we can have a 'Wii slide show party'
right away! I love you all, and look forward to more emails from you!
Let me know how life is!
Love, Will
