Currently sitting in the Miami airport, waiting to board my plane to San Francisco. Counting down the hours until I arrive at home. It has been a fun final day before my departure from the island. My day really started when the exams ended. I went home, rested up, and then joined a group of classmates on a tour of the island. We explored the beaches and rolling hills of the French side. I thought I knew the island, but I had no idea of the beauty beyond the tourist traps. I hope to go back next semester to do some more exploring on foot.
After I got back, I finished off last minute errands, including laundry, packing, eating dinner, and getting ready to go out for the night. I finished all of that off and then headed over to Jafry's place to start the night. He had his Wii going, along with hookah and awesome nachos. I made the right choice in pit-stopping. The plan was to go to Bliss later in the night, since our previous experiences of going around 10pm proved that no shows up until later. This time, we showed up at midnight and it still was barely filling up. But by 1am, the place was popping and we had a great time hanging out. The music was filled with house and some rap, which helped keep the dancing go all night. When we were about to leave, some 2nd semesters got bottle service, so we ended up staying for another hour and a half to enjoy the VIP area and catch up with the everyone.
By 4am I was home. I settled into bed and proceeded to get 45 minutes of sleep, which mainly consisted of tossing and turning in fear of sleeping through my flight. I got up, finalized my packing, and started walking to the guard station to hail a taxi. I got lucky and saw Dutta (at 6am mind you) and she took me to the airport. It seems like the days lest planned tend to work out the best. I don't know how this counter-intuitive idea works, but it does.
Thankfully, Google has provided free internet in MIA for the holidays, so I can hop on, blog, call home, and get some stuff done while I'm waiting for this six hour layover to end. It will be nice to get home, even though I'll still have a ways to go since I'm getting into SFO and need to make to Hollister tonight.
