Day 1

So I woke up this morning at 3:30, but didn't actually get out of bed until 4:00. Got ready, finished packing and headed down to the airport with Mommy at about 5:30. Our flight felt at 8:15 so we figured getting down there at about 6:30 would be ok. Southwest, most of the time, has a tent set up out front where you can check in your luggage before you go in, which I think is a fabulous idea. So we check our luggage in and the max weight before they charge you is 50lbs. My big suitcase weighed 61lbs. Sorry Mommy!! So we got charged for that, but the rest were fine. Starbucks in hand we went and sat down to wait for our flight.
Our first flight went well, as well as a plane ride can go. We couldn't find a continuing flight due to distance, so we had to change planes in Phoenix. Mom and I were hungry so we inhaled a small pizza from Pizza Hut and then boarded our 2nd plane from Phoenix to Philadelphia. We ended up flying with the Arizona Rattlers football team, a semi-pro team. And I got to meet and sit in the same row as the quarterback!! So cool!!! 4hrs and 45mins is the LONGEST I've ever been in the air and that's plenty for me.

What I do...apparently!

1 more week!!!

Hello everyone, sorry I haven't posted in quite some time but I promise I'll be better. Well, I've got a week and a day until I leave for Philadelphia. YIPPEE!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!! Don't worry, I'll take tons of pictures and have lots of stories when I come home. I'll be gone for 6 weeks, leaving June 24th and coming home August 6th. Mommy's flying out with me to get me settled but then I'm pretty sure I'm flying home by myself. And I have to change planes on the way home. Ugh! And this time I'll have a room mate. When I went to Austin last summer if you were 18+ we got to stay in the casitas which were like houses with two floors and we had our own lockable rooms, which was very nice. Now we have to share rooms, which isn't so bad. Oh and I'm basically done with school for this quarter!!!! I only have 2 more classes until I'm officially done, then I don't have to think about it until September :) I'm going to miss everyone here while I'm gone, but especially my boy. I know he won't understand why I'm gone (guys never do) but I know he'll be here when I come home. I couldn't imagine life without my boy Una!!
My boy, Una!!! <3
