Everything from beverage orders, lunch, and breakfast, to attendants letting me know I needed to have my seatbelt on. Call me an idealist, but let's just say I did not get 7 hours of sleep. Don't get me wrong, I was in an amazing airplane which was, according to the pilot, the newest plane in the fleet. It definitely felt new, and the meals did not disappoint.
On a brighter note, what's really kept me awake this first day is the excitement of being in a city that I've never been in, along enjoying the company of meeting a couple of my classmates. That and the amazing weather.
My first day in London has been adventurous. I meet with my classmate, Martha (who is awesome by the way) at the airport. You can check out her blog here. It was a really easy trip from the airport to the Study Centre, which only reaffirmed my support for the buddy system. Once we arrived at our flats, I went on productive mode. In four hours I unpacked and organized everything, met my flatmates (which are from different FSU programs), bought a cell phone, got some coffee, and took a tour of the Study Centre. Not bad for a guy with jet lag. Oh, and don't even get me started on Fred...
