In 108 Days I Haven’t…

 

1.   Driven a car

2.   Seen a single college or pro sporting event

3.   Had any Coke or Pepsi products

4.   Eaten at an American chain or fast-food restaurant

5.   Listened to the radio

6.   Spent more than 7 consecutive days on land

7.   Made my own bed

8.   Played a game of ultimate

9.   Used a washing machine

10. Taken a dance class

 

In about 24 hours the MV Explorer will be pulling into Miami.  I have said this over and over, but I still can’t believe how fast this semester has gone by.  I am going through such a wide range of emotions.  I am super excited to be coming home, but the thought of this trip being over is really depressing.  It has definitely been the trip of a lifetime.  The shared experiences and unique environments of Semester at Sea have led to some really meaningful relationships.  I am extremely fortunate to have made such a wonderful group of friends.  It will be hard leaving them.  But don’t worry family and friends back home, you have been in my thoughts for the past 108 days and I can’t wait to see you!

 

Tonight I plan on sleeping outside on the deck – that way I can wake up to the sunrise in Miami!  See you soon!
