One Crazy Morning
I checked out on August 15th, and DAMN, it was one long, crazy
ass morning/day/everything...
Now, my roommates all decided to pack-up-to-leave the entire last
week we were there. Well, I myself decided it was wayyy more important
to spend each one of my last nights at one of the parks, and do
and see everything I could one last time before I left. I told
them I'd stay up all night my last night to pack if I had to, which
I pretty much did.
August 14th started normal enough, I woke up at 6am as usual.
I got up, got ready for work and headed out to catch the 7am bus
to work for one last time. I worked from 8-7:30 that day. We ended
up closing early due to weather. We said our goodbyes and turned
in our costumes. That night I went to MGM with some friends and
rode Rockin Roller Coaster a bunch of times since I had a stack
of FastPasses from my roommate. Later we went to Pleasure Island,
saw the Comedy show, walked around Downtown for a bit, then left.
I spent all of that night packing. Ryan, Derek, and I cleaned while
Ryan II, and Mike decided to sleep (though they cleaned the next
morning). I was pretty much done packing by about 5am. Granted
I went somewhat slow, had to do laundry, and on top of that had
to fit a TON of stuff into very few suitcases. I slept for about
45min after that, then got up and took a shower then waited for
my roommates to wake up. See, the problem was I still had a few
stacks of clothes, sheets, and shoes to pack...but nothing to pack
them in. None of my roommates would take me to WalMart to buy another
suitcase either, but I'm not bitter...NOT AT ALL.
That morning I also had to turn in my ID, and get ahold of Aaron
to get my video camera back. My other friends, Ryan and Laurel
were able to take me to a discount shop where I was able to buy
a MASSIVE duffle bag. I had 4 garbage bags worth of stuff to put
in it, and it all fit. So after that we drove to the airport, they
dropped me off and I went to check it. My suitcase weighed 85lbs,
and the duffle weighed 63lbs. Fortunately the lady was nice and
didnt charge me extra for having overweight baggage. Then finally
got on the plane to go home.
