Am I a complete idiot? READ TO FIND OUT!
Holy shit. What a long day. Here goes...
Woke up pretty late...11:00ish. First things first, I started packing to head back to Boston. Two mammoth suitcases, each so full they were bursting at the seams. My mom told me to go online and check what time my flight was. That's when I realized I did not have my itinerary/confirmation # - ((I had a mental flashback of me throwing it away a couple weeks ago, like a fool))... and I didnt know what airline I was flying...all I knew is the flight took off around 8 from FLL.
So after spending time on the phone with Delta and Song airlines, and stressing as they told me they do not have a reservation for me, I realized that I saved the e-mail itinerary (YAY I'M NOT A COMPLETE IDIOT!) on AOL under SAVED MAIL on my laptop. Turns out I was flying JetBlue....(SO I'M KIND OF AN IDIOT...) So that's good news.
Fast forward an hour. It's around 2. My mom goes on her computer to print out my itinerary (I couldn't print from my laptop). That's when I, glancing over her shoulder, realize- to my horror- the sickening extent of my stupidity. I missed my flight because it was at 8:00 AM. (O.K., NEVERMIND. I'M A COMPLETE IDIOT) I couldn't/can't believe I did that. I suppose it helps to understand, acknowledge, and respect the difference between AM and PM when scheduling flights. Well now I know...SOOOOO...IT cost an arm and a leg (both in time and in $$) to find me another flight. But we did.
I got into Boston around 11PM and took a cab to my new dorm on Bay State. First I had to get my key from one of the larger dorming buildings- so I trucked my suitcases a couple blocks in the monsoon-like rain to my new residence. What a pleasant surprise, though! The place is pretty fucking big, and it's nice TOO! Haven't met my roommate bc he's not here yet so I'm just chillin. Also, I'm having trouble using instant messanger on this computer...that's a bitch.
New England lost to the Broncos :(
It was so great to hang out with all my friends when I was home! Kind of wish I could have just curled up in a ball there forever. But such is life. This should be a very very interesting semester in many ways. I'm kind of excited, I wish I had it in me to lie to you.
THe thing is: I've only been back for a couple hours, and I'm already lonely as can be. Maybe I just need constant attention. I don't know.
