no matter where you are in the world, the moon is never bigger than your thumb

Tuesday, October 18, 2011 (12:19am) - Bay of Bengal

technically we've been in the bay of bengal for a while now. since october 9th to be exact... but i just now looked at my map. so deal with it. i don't really have anything to say tonight. but i just went stargazing on deck 7 forward and it was AMAZING. they turned all the lights out up there so we could see sooo many stars. and i've never seen the moon that bright before. though it was a little titanic deja-vu-ish cus brew, michael, and i were standing up on the top and looking straight ahead all we could see was black glassy water and then below us these two people were making out under the moonlight. so i was like "cue celine & where is the iceberg?" and obvs i did the whole 'dear john' "no matter where you are in the world, the moon is never bigger than your thumb" corny thing. so whenever the moon comes up in san diego, go outside and do the same thing. it'll be romantic, i swear. i'm just glad we were actually able to stargaze tonight since it's been storming monsoons the past two days. and this time when i say it's monsoon-ing... it actually is a real monsoon. hopefully it's not pouring the entire time we're in malaysia. we get there the 19th and i don't really know what i'm doing yet. this is the first port that we're pretty much just winging. could go either way, but i'm excited.

okay well i'm going to bed now. cus we have to turn the clocks ahead another hour tonight. which i'm kind of confused by because i'm pretty sure we only need half an hour to be on malaysia time. but either way, it's really 1am here, not midnight. and i have to wake up for breakfast and global studies tomorrow... wah. so that'll make it 14.5 hours ahead of you beautiful people. so i hope you guys are enjoying monday, cus it's tuesday here. such a blast. so i can't even say sweet dreams to you, but i will anyways.

ps brewer thinks she's going to convert me to country music. and it's just not going to happen. lars has been trying for forever, now my dad & sister listen to country music for no reason. currently listening to a guy singing a love song to his dog. all of you that buy into this shit are ridiculous human beings.
