Today starts our Spring Break! I’ve been looking forward to going home for a couple weeks now. It has been very busy here with homework, tests, the research project and my internship, so I am looking forward to relaxing a bit. Even though we are on break I still have to work on my research project. Our literature review for our paper is due the Monday we return. This part of the paper is quite long, totally around fifteen to twenty pages in length. This number sounds intimidating, but I have so much information it should not be that difficult to complete. I just have to be diligent and set time aside to complete it.
Since I am going home by plane, I have a few hours to work on the project. This is my first flight alone without any family or friends. I thought I would be more nervous than I am, but I have been surprisingly calm. I am not nervous about the actual flight, but traveling to the airport is somewhat intimidating. I am going by metro to the end of the green line. When I get off the metro, there is supposed to be a shuttle to the Baltimore airport. I am nervous that I will not be able to find this shuttle or that it will be unreliable. Once I hopefully get to the airport, I have to navigate my way to the gate that my plane leaves from. I have never been in the Baltimore airport nor have I ever had to find my way through any airport, so this should be interesting. My biggest fear is that I will miss my flight because I get lost or the metro takes too long. Trying to estimate the time it will take to travel on the metro throughout this semester has been difficult. It is often unreliable and it experiences many delays. It seems as though every other week they are having track maintenance or they are breaking down. Therefore, it is better to leave earlier, just in case, than to be late and miss my flight. If I miss my flight, I guess I will not be able to go home! I definitely do not want that to happen! Hopefully my navigation skills will pull through.
Wish me luck,
Andreanna
