Musings of a Perfectionist

Hello: this is the (perhaps) long-awaited Holiday post! Cue the music and the streamers. Anyway, what I did was note down something for each day that we were out in Spain. It's actually a pretty cool exercise to do, as it makes you remember more about your day, and try to think of something vaguely interesting/funny to talk about. Day One-  I had a (tiny) extensional crisis: the thought that there are all these people just a plane journey away that have a completely different language and culture and space is insane. Also, I met a girl called Lara on the plane, which was pretty cool . Day Two- I love cats (there were so many tiny ones running around at the villa) and the greatest simile of all time is thus: the car ate up the road like spaghetti (A Clockwork Orange). Day Three- why is there so much graffiti everywhere? I mean, there is a lot in England, yes, but there is a lot more in Spain. Day Four- I seriously hate Maths sometimes (trying to do 3D Trig...

I may have said that I hate airports, but the wonderful people on the actual plane make up for it. (And yes, I am being sarcastic (ever so slightly), for those of you who don't know what sarcasm is.) First of all though, anyone ever been on a BA flight when there is the video demonstrating what to do with oxygen masks, life jackets etc. What is that? It is honestly one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. Secondly, the crew on the flight was lovely, so thanks to them. ☺ But the people really made the flight what it was. There was this weirdo (let's call her grinning girl) sitting next to me, who kept poking me and talking and even showed me a picture of a massive spider in her magazine (I hate spiders). Grinning girl is, of course, my sister, so it wasn't too bad (love you sis!) On the other side of the plane, a couple of seats in front of me, there was a girl with an amazing jumpsuit who accidently (I guess?) gave me a book recommendation, so thanks to jumpsuit...
