Current Position: 10:39/London: 1:39/Chicago:7:39

Well, my iPod lasted me to now, which I do believe signifies that I simply must obtain a new one sometime in the future. We are at some point south of Greenland, and are expected to arrive in Chicago in about 5 more hours. Then we have a five hour layover, and be home by 7, at which point I will obtain some apple cider. The bust ride to the airport was pretty dull, lots of sleeping happened. We got to the airport and hung out and had breakfast for a while. I wanted a PB+Honey on a cinnamon raisin bagel, but they didn't have any peanut butter, so I had ham and cheese on a plain. Then I went to the shop and got an Oasis and a Lilt. Tasty. Also had a caramel mocha at Starbucks. Wanted cider, but they didn't have it. On the plane, I wanted root beer, but they didn't have any so I had Pepsi. It has been a 2nd choice day so far aha. We had Penne pasta with Pesto chichen for lunch on the plane. It was pretty good. There's supposed to be some type of afternoon snack later. Yum? I shaved last night, but not very well because you could either get hot water or cold water--nothing in between. I will have a proper shave when I am home. I have reached page 197 in my book that I am reading, I can think of no more to say at this point so I will go to sleep now.


The End.

12:37

So after Warwick, we went back to the Methodist Central hall. We had a little dress rehearsal kinda thing, with an inspirational speech from Sarah, with a fart from Colin right in the middle of the most important part. It was funny, but Sarah was pretty pissed. I had a feeling the concert would go well. Then we went downstairs to the ahll kinda place where they served us jacket potatoes. I had two delicious ones with butter and salt and cheese. Mmm. We had ice cream for desert. I'm definitley looking forward to going home and having some nice, real dairy products. Ice cream, milk, yogurt...mmmm. It was ok, but it was no Blue Bunny. Then we went to get changed. Before the concert, we got another speech, another fart, and we headed up. We went in and sang the concert pretty much as planned. There were only about 35 people there, but whatever. It was fun. Neil had a great organ solo thing. Very powerful. They need to take the screens off the organ at church. It would just sound so much better. Oh well. I just thought it was kind of sad that the epitome of six years of choir and youth group is singing for 35 people. Not exactly climactic. "Whatever," though, as Micheal would say, "I make it rain." And raining it is, in fact. After the concert, we ran into the chapel and had a lot of chaos as we changed and stuff. Then we got on the bus and settled in and jammed and everybody sang the whole times. It was a lot of fun. As we neared the hostel, everyone got everything together and took the hike to it. We all went to our rooms, some of us after some [illegible, looks like "intermetry"?], and got everything ready for tomorrow. We'll have to get up around 5 and be out by 6, I guess we have an early flight. We're due to have a 5 hour layover in Chicago and then be home around 7:00. It'll be nice.

My Philosophy on Procrastination

I am not one of those people who slacks off by playing video games. When I'm not working on what I should be doing, I am reading about something else that interests me or watching something culturally stimulating...not just sitting around. I don't want to sound like a snob, but that's my take on it. Which brings me here. It's 1:27 in the morning, Monday morning. I have just had 5 days off from school. Yes, I was working on my application to Indiana University a lot of the break. But in between sending emails to directors and everything else, I would read a little snippet...or the entire menu...about a new restaurant downtown or read an article in the New Yorker about a BBQ place in Texas. It's not that I'm wasting my time...I'm just putting my efforts in a place where maybe they aren't being used to their full potential. And now, I have a bunch of homework due tomorrow that I haven't done. I'm getting up at 6:15 to finish some of it. But tomorrow, I am going to see what happens if I don't do anything at all besides what is completely time efficient. We'll see what happens.

Also, I'm shaving.
