Flag of United States Somewhere in the pacific, United States
Monday, June 19, 2006

Hello all,
I am on my way. Where am I? Well somewhere in the middle of the pacific not sure where. It is our second day at sea and life is good. The first day I had a little headache because of the waves I just can't stop thinking that Katherine would die. This is the fastest crusie type boat that can cross the pacific so you really feel it. Not to worry though I am feeling great. My roommates name is Maggie. Yes mom we got it switched. We are like soul mates. We are having a blast we got unpacked in our tiny rooms ill probably upload pictures at a later date. I way overpacked. Mom be ready to take home like 2 suitcases for me. There are so many people here from all over the US. A lot of Yankees but hey they southern states still represent. There are like 3 girls from SMU. I have not had a chance to chat with them but I will. I set up an Email for just this trip it is Tomasiabroad@hotmail.com. So if you wanna email me send it there but please no forwards. I have kept quite busy. I am writing this as I sit by the pool. I had my first day of class and they sound great. I am really excited. I think I have decided not to get in the English because that is to much work and I don't wanna take away from my trip. I get up at about 730 and go eat breakfast before class. Well im on the subject of food Its great. We have like pasta chicken fish and veggies at every meal. We also have great bread. I am going to pick up a couple more snacky things in Hawaii because there's not to many options between meals. We have our first sunset social tonight so I am quite excited. The courses seem like a lot of work but more just a lot of stuff to take in. I am a little nervous about getting board because I just realized that after we leave Hawaii we have 10 days at sea and on the way home we are trapped on the boat for 13 days straight. AHHHH. But I will have fun. I cant believe I am really on my way to china it seems so surreal. I hope everyone is well. I love you all and miss you. Please Keep checking for more info because I think personal emails will be few and between. If someone could tell my dad happy fathers day and that the boat has the best cobblerthat would be great. I will be in Hawaii on Friday so hopefully my cell will work and I can give everyone a quick call. Be safe. I love you Ryan. I will post pictures in Hawaii. I love you all. Cant wait to see you.
