I swear if someone had come into my cabin with a loaded weapon I would have begged them to put me out of my misery. Much happier now, with food in my belly finally, I've turned attention to making friends, partying, and studying (some of the time!). The ship is cool, and so are the people, food, professors etc. The only problem is that there are 2 girls to every guy on the boat. I'm sure I'll manage somehow! I am so excited to get to Japan. Saw schools of dolphins of the port bow this morning! Love you all!! Please, those of you with CU Theatre, email me who got cast in what???? Love to Mon, Mum and Dad too - I'll call from Kobe.

How can it be 25 years since you went on Semester at Sea? It's mind boggling! I wanted to check out your first post again after all these years and now I think I'll have a read of the whole SAS saga at some point, as it was such an interesting adventure. So glad it is here online to come back to whenever one wants.
