Traveling back to NYC can be an adventure!
So last night while trying to get back to NYC I realized how much of a small world it really is. I had an 845 am flight that left Hobby for Chicago. On the flight were 2 girls from my old high school who I wasn't the best of friends with or anything, but pretty decent friends. We ended up sitting next to each other and talking the entire time which was really cool. Then when I got to Midway Airport I grabbed some lunch and found this really hot guy to stare at for most of the time. He was so precious and kept asking me about the flight details and stuff. I like to think he was flirting back, whatevs. On that flight I got to sit in the Exit Row seats which made me OH so happy and I sat next to this old couple which kept trying to tell me about their life experiences and what they've seen and stuff. It was really quite entertaining. My air hostess was a bitch though because I had fallen asleep during the drink service and she almost refused to get me a sprite! Kinda outta control. Whatever happened to Southwest Airlines being the fun and friendly way to fly?
Then, since it's Southwest, we landed in Islip, NY (shoutout to Diana b/c that's like 2 minutes away from her home), and I had to take a train back to Penn Station. To get to the train station you have to wait this sketch cab to take you there for like $5. Apparently the sketch cab has some friends who look out for him because this guy saw me and a few other girls waiting for it and was like I don't know what's taking him so long, but my cab is right over there and I can take you girls over there if you'd like. We all pile into his cab kinda crammed in and go over there. Apparently the cab driver was a little drunk bc one of the girls smelled some rum in his breath. If I had known that beforehand I wouldn't have gotten into the car. Then, we get to the station and 3 of us kinda stuck together while waiting for the train. Once we got on the train I sat next to one of the girls who was really pretty and me and her got a couple of guys to help us with our bags and such. THne this woman who was traveling with 2 kids but looked like someone who wasnt ready to give up her party days decided to be a little nosy and ask us about our lives, life stories and such. The two guys were like sitting there talking wiht us as well. We all had this great discussion and this one guy was like well I recently got hit by a car while I was driving my mountain bike. He starts listing off the numerous injuries he got and he was like yeah it was really bad and I even damaged the car with my body! Me and the other girl realized he was showing off and he's like yeah it's b/c I work out. Ok yes he had huge muscles and everything but really, is it nec. to restate that? I think that. Whatever. It was entertaining. I ended up sharing a cab with one girl who was going to Chinatown so score I got home from L.I. for under $25! Sweet. OVerall, not a bad way to come back to NYC.
In other news: i have a new laptop and i love it.
