Wednesday, 4-12-00.
Today I was going to Florida. I woke up around 7:30 AM or so, feeling a little tired because I started packing like 10 PM the night before. My mom was going to call a taxi, but a family friend came through after all. I got a ride to the airport, and arrived somewhat early at 8:50 AM or so. We waited, played cards, took pictures, checked in our bags, etc. When it came time to go to the gate I was filled with so many metallic objects it annoyed me. I took a few minutes at that gate. We boarded the plane at the gate (I don't remember the number). I got a window seat, and sat next to Gabino for the first flight. It was pretty boring. I was listening to the airplane channels, namely the Jive music and Top Pops channel. They played BSB, *NSYNC, Britney Spears, and more.
We stopped at Denver, got on another plane, and headed to Orlando. This time I sat next to Ben, and I slept for about the first 15 minutes of the flight. After that things got pretty boring. I listened to my Walkman, which had a tape of j-pop and j-rock, and on the back side had some American pop and rap and R&B. My walkman is all screwed up though, so it played everything on a lower frequency, meaning the music was all slowed down. Ben let me use his for a short while. We finally got to Orlando at night, at around 9 or so.
We met Armand and Alex who were already in Orlando. We waited outside for a charter bus. It seemed to take forever. A bus finally came, and we took it (which was really cool, I should say) to our hotel, the Travelodge I think it was.While at the hotel lobby we saw people in the hot tub, and we even met this really nice security guard! It was really humid in the lobby. We patiently awaited for our room keys. 
We went up to our rooms. I remember I hung out in Spencer, Evan, Alex, and Ben's room for a little while, and we went to get ice. There was no ice on our floor, the fifth floor. The security guard on our floor told us that the ice was on every other floor, so we ran downstairs but two floors but to no avail. We finally found ice on one of the floors. (I don't remember which.)
What is Alex doing in this picture... I seem to remember him just standing there and taking it but it looks more like he's pleasuring himself with the machine.When I finally settled down in my room there was a room check, and Ms. Jenni came in with some cookies. We watched HBO, specifically the movie "Shattered Image." DAMN that woman in the movie was flat. The movie was confusing too. I remember being bombarded by prank calls, and Joe called our room once, saying his room was going to order Eyes Wide Shut the next night (although they never did) and I think Spencer pranked called our room a few times (although some other room probably pranked called us as well.)  This is a picture of Jeff M. demonstrating what happens when you masturbate! Okay not really. I don't know why I asked Jeff to be in a picture. I just felt really goofy the first night.Well, I got the bed the first night. David tried to engage in conversation in gossip. It took some time to sleep because of jet lag, but I finally did. |
