This update is urgent- As I have been reading my previous blogs, I have stumbled upon many grammatical errors, for this I deeply apologize. Outlook Web Access doesn't really catch incorrect words or phrases.

Also- I cannot recall if I have mentioned this, but there is an ESCALATOR inside the 5th deck kitchen...yes it is true. Look- it's right near the door, and it goes down to the Crew decks (Decks 1 and 2- in case you were curious).

I also learned that engine room workers have stripes (which they should since they keep the ship moving)- and therefore are considered of a "higher status".

Tonight the Ambassadors had an official pinning ceremony, where we all got "pinned" as official ambassadors- it was cute, and we got free ice cream.

My advice to future SASer's...DO NOT buy the books. My professors did not use 1/2 of the books they said were required- we didn't even LOOK in them! Plus- UVA has high book prices, and low sell back prices since they know students don't want to lug a bunch of books back home with them. Books are always on reserve in the library for the classes- so unless you absolutely want to- don't buy the books.

I have collected way too many items in the countries we've visited- and will probably spend a billion dollars in overweight, and extra baggage fees.

I've been having insane dreams lately about the ship doing flips, and me driving the lifeboats... vvvvierd.

Jennifer is currently petting and caressing my external hard drive. We are crazy, and sleep-deprived.

Alright- there was a point to this blog- I had learned more ship secrets- but have forgotten them. Plus I wanted to use this blog to tell people that I am aware of my horrific grammar mistakes in previous blogs- not to mention sentence structure.

Okie Dokie- I will most likely update later if I remember what I wanted to say.
