Area 77

Some of you might know that I had two sessions of summer school this year so I had about two weeks of vacation before the fall semester starts again. This vacation was so short that there wasn’t enough time for me to feel sad and depressed about having to leave again (lol). So I guess that was cool. I really hate that feeling.

Shockingly, I am looking forward to this semester. I had a fantastic summer semester after the worst academic year I had in my life. So I’m really optomisitc to start. I have a year left (maybe a year and a half if I add another degree) so the sooner I start, the sooner I get the hell out.

My vacation started Saturday morning August 11th. I took a two hour shuttle bus to Indianapolis Airport, two hour flight to DC, 12 hour flight to Kuwait, slept for the night, took a two and a half hour flight the next morning to Alexandria, Egypt and then a two hour drive from the airport in Alex to Cairo. That’s a lot of traveling.

I spent four days in Egypt to see the other half of my family. I won’t go into details but basically, I hadn’t seen anyone in seven years and I desperatley needed to catch up on stuff and meet all the new people (kids, husbands, wives). It would have taken a miracle for those four days to have been greater than they were. I love my family.

The rest of the vacation, ten days, I spent in Kuwait. It was great to see home again as well. But, I was too late to see my big brother before he left to sea.

Anyway, I have about 30 minutes before I have to leave to go to the airport. Gonna go make me something to eat. Airplane food sucks extra these days.
