Spring Break is an amazing time for USAFA. All cadets are released for a week and given time to recharge. They come back ready to knock out the last 15 lessons and move on with summer schedules. Later on today I'll probably make a post about Recognition and a quick update on what I'm doing this summer :) But here is how my spring break started...
Its about 10:15 eastern time so 8:15 Colordo time. I'll give you a quick run down of my spring break thus far. Feel free to stop reading now if you'd like, but if you're not busy and would like to be slightly entertained...keep reading.
Woke up Friday (yesterday) morning at 6am to do a work out and do my laundry. Got done working out and felt horrible. I went to the clinic and ended up getting put on bed rest for the day (got out of water haze) because of the norovirus thing AGAIN.
Ended up leaving USAFA at 3...made it all the way to Denver with out a problem, but the roads in Denver were horrible. Took us forever to get to the airport (it was bumper to bumper traffic all through Denver).
Got to Denver ok but there was no one at my ticket counter to check my bags because I found out my flight was delayed from 1130pm to 230am. No big deal, went to the USO and chilled there with friends until about 1230am (7hrs).
Got to my gate and learned the plane was now delayed until 3am (still haven't slept since waking up at 6am). Finally get on the plane and then we sat on the tarmac for an hour and a half (22hr w/ no sleep and not feeling great). Plane finally pulls away and I'm asleep before the plane takes off and I wake up when they tell us to put up our tray tables (a good 3 hour nap).
Land in Boston...and here I sit...I have 5 hours before my flight to Maryland and then I have a 3hr drive to my house. This means 27hrs from the time i left USAFA to the time I get home will have elapsed.
If this is how my break starts it can only get better. I'm doing great. I can't wait for the rest of break.
