Traveling the day before Thanksgiving

Alrighty, so right now I'm waiting in front of Gate 91 at Orlando International Airport for my flight to Denver, Colorado to arrive and then, once I'm on the plane, depart. I arrived at the airport quite early because my roommate's flight left around 10am and thought that I might as well catch a ride with her to the airport. This was all good and fine, 5 hours was a little extreme I thought, but hey you never know whats going to happen on the day before thanksgiving. So what happened? I had to sit and wait and hour to check in, not because there was a line but because you just couldn't check in until 10:51AM, and that whole process took about 5 minutes. I checked one bag. Then I walked to the security checkpoint, the line for that was about 3 minutes long. It took me 2 minutes to get throught that. Then I walked to my gate. I've been sitting her for over an hour now, just browsing the internet, I still have about two hours to wait... Whats all this stuff I hear about how packed the airports are on the day before thanksgiving and how long you'll have to wait in line. This was probably the fastest airport experience I've ever had, except for all the useless waiting... God I'm so bored...

I could give you an update on my life, but nothing really new has happened. I got a new piercing...two in fact lol. I'm not tellin where lol. Nah, its nothing bad I swear.
Works been OK. They weren't too pleased that I'm taking all this time off. I want to get a new job anyway so oh well.
School is going well, I had to take my math exam early last night, I'd actually be taking it right now as we speak if I wasn't flying out today... I think I did pretty well on it...
OoOoO I got my scholarship appeal approved. Hooray! There are a few things I need to do, meet with a counselor and an advisor and whatnot, but I can do all that. I'm just glad I got it back. It's not retroactive though. I won't get the $3,000 back from this semester, o well. I had to make this excruciatingly painful speech in front of this snobby nosed scholarship committee but everything turned out OK in the end.
As for life stuff, well right now I'm going to visit my brother in Colorado! Yay! I'll be leaving the 26th. I'll finally get to see snow again, its been forever, well two years... And I'm excited to see his new place.
I'll be going home for christmas too. I cant wait to see everyone. I'll blog more about that later.
I think I'll look up some ukulele tabs and play my uke in the airport. :-)
