“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

My Fears

Tonight I did something I told myself I would never do- watch horror
stories about Semester at Sea. There is a Facebook group where people
post random comments about anything from questions about their visas,
classes, field trips, or organizing non-semester at sea trips (they
are way cheaper). Someone posted this video, and I contemplated
watching it because I did not want to place any worry in my mind
seeing that I still have two months until I leave. I decided to watch
the video because I knew I needed to prepare myself for the worst so
that if I am faced with a similar situation, I would be as prepared as
I could be. The end of the video gave me a little peace of mind about
the lifeboats. I never knew anything about the features of these life
boats and would have gone onto the boat thinking very naive. Until
now, I thought that they would be similar to the Titanic not knowing
all of the features.
