I wish that I knew what it was like to be going home on vacation. I wish that it was after my second contract already and that I was about to go home for Christmas. I know that I would have more money saved and that I would have grown in so many ways. I will by that time have formed better realtionships with some people here and will have people to visit all over the world. Do you think that we could speed things up and just make this all become a reality?

I went to the beach today, but it was raining almost the whole time that I was there. Still, it has been so nice to be off the boat in a week that I am suppose to be port manning.

I will tell you this, living and working on a cruise ship is not at all as wonderful as it may seem. It is not awful, but if you ever have wanted to go, I will let you know ahead of time that it is not all you imagined. Still, go and experience it for yourself and then form your own opinion...I'm all about experiences and having your own opinion.
