29th-30th of June, traveling to Miami!So i finally got into Miami today, after what seemed to be one of the longest airport experiences of my life, im so happy to be here.
The previous night, my brother had decided to tackle a Scottish girl in a drinking competition, and hence had came home absolutely covered in his own sick, and feeling very sorry for himself.
3am:While he was sleeping, I had prepared the bags and the information all ready for our flight, and quickly enough the time had passed and I was on my way to Heathrow.
7am:It was so cold outside now, the strange warmth of the early morning had worn off, and the cold grasp of a British morning had finally got to me. The smoking area of Heathrow had become my home for the last few hours, and as a non smoker surrounded by human chimneys would, I had become very tired of it. This was until frank carter casually strolled past me with the rest of his vanguard, stopped for a minute or two to casually kick the floor, look miserable and stroll off again. Such a surreal moment.
9am:Im finally in the line to board my flight, a large black man with gold front teeth wearing some sort of sports tracksuit has been staring at me from about a meter away, point blank for about ten minutes. This carries on for quite a while, until the line moves and i end up smack bang behind him, he proceeds to slowly remove his headphones and point at me, here I was expecting to be told I looked like a prick, but instead an overly friendly American voice tells me: "Not enough people keep themselves looking fresh and original anymore, you got some mean style and i got alot of respect for it" After talking to this man about my tunnels and how they came to be in the middle of the line for a good 10 minutes, I was quickly in the boarding room waiting for my flight.
10am:Im sat on seats at the edge of the plane, Cory is snoring away beside me already. We boarded the 747 to find that we had been seated in the middle of a group of about 50 Ethiopian visitors, none of which could speak any English, or understand much of it for that. So many children. After discovering this, we both figured it would be a better gamble to steal some seats opposite them instead. This worked out much better, with a disgruntled looking elderly couple who were too intimidated to challenge it, sat between the rambling foreign mob instead.
5pm: Finally getting into Miami, i got searched and searched again, quickly strolled through customs and exports, straight outside, To be hit by a wall of solid humidity. The heat actually shocked me, it is so much hotter here than i thought it would be.
(As a side note, i also noticed the highly common use of polished wheels among cars here, what seemed to be a show car and wheel whore trend in England, was common as muck here. Everything looked so clean!)
5am Wednesday.I have tried three different flavors of Monster energy I previously haven't had the opportunity to, it turns out mixing these with a couple bottles of mountain dew actually makes you shake and feel like you are floating, interesting.
The house I am staying in is beautiful, it is picturesque and perfect, the design of it is stunning, And I am so happy with it. I have spent the last 12 hours wandering around the town, buying silly drinks and looking at retro VW cars which seem to be in fashion over here as well, this made me very happy. It's getting to the point now where i really need to sleep.
