Plane Ride

We took the red eye plane, which left Atlanta, GA at 5:15pm and arrived in London at about 7:30am. I hadn’t slept very much the two nights before. I was up working on thesis late, and then would also get up very early to start working again as well as pack. Also, the apartment I subleased for the beginning of the summer was SO VERY loud! My room overlooked the pool, and every night I was kept awake until at least 2 or 3 because drunk people would be out yelling and swimming in the pool. Even my earplugs and fan blowing did not override the noise.

So I got to the plane very tired, and also excited that I got to sleep the whole time. However, there were babies that cried ¾ of the entire plane ride. I am not exaggerating one bit, either. If I even started to fall asleep, one would start screaming. Everybody one the plane was very annoyed! So instead I watched worked on thesis until my computer died, and then watched two movies – “When in Rome” and “Valentine’s Day”. I stayed awake, but only because of the noise! I think I drifted away for maybe a total of ten minutes. For dinner on the plane, we got to choose from chicken or pasta. I got the pasta and it was okay, but definitely better than the chicken Clinton got!
