Well, I'm going to type this up now because I most likely won't have any time tomorrow.
I fly out to Rome, Italy tomorrow. ^__^ I'm pretty psyched about it, even though it's a 9 hour ride. From there it's onto the Cruise ship for ten days. We go around Greek Islands like Santorini, pass by Croatia, and even stop once on the coast of Turkey! This is like a dream for me; I absolutely adore traveling. And I've never been to Europe, much less island-hopping around Greece. The sights should be absolutely amazing! Not to mention I'll be turning 16 August 3rd. That's right in the middle of the cruise, so it's even more special. ^__^ *beams*
I do have some reservations about the trip... namely, I'm going to be the only from my group that is my own age. Hopefully I can meet someone on the boat, but that didn't work so well last time... And then of course I have a silly fear of sleeping on planes, which I'm going to have to do on the flight over. Because we're flying out so late, and the time difference, and (of course) we want to make the most of Rome, I have to try and get as much sleep as I can on the ride over. But I always have this odd fear of snoring. ^__^;;; Yeah, I know, it's weird. I'll get over it.
Tomorrow is going to be ridiculous, seeing as we haven't packed absolutely ANYTHING. Thank God we have a late flight, or else my mum might have aneurism. xP We're going to be gone for ten days, so there's going to be a lot of packing involved. It's going to be an early morning for me tomorrow!
And in other news~ Super psyched to start knitting again! I'm giving
justiceextinct's boy, Leuca, a present. I'm making it myself, and I can't wait to start! I already have a few ideas about what I'm going to be making. I just have to run them past my Aunt (who's a knitting genius) to start looking for some patterns. Ya know, the specifics of it all. The only thing is, I have to start the project after I get back from the trip. I find it very hard to believe I'll be able to get knitting needles through security. Pointy things + Airplane Security = Nuh uh. xP But I can't wait to start it! We're doing a trade; I knit for Leuca and she draws my (hopefully) soon-to-be boarder - Ethan. ^__^ Just can't wait!! ~
This summer started out pretty slow, but it's definitely picking up now! Things should get interesting. ^__~
