Megabus.com is awesome. Definitely look it up if you need to travel. But umm watch out for the tricky bathroom in the back of the bus.. it's evil. You walk in and it's lit, but when you lock the door behind you the light goes off? Hmm.. And then when I unlock it and try and get out i can't?! Okay so maybe i had it backwards, flip the lock, and its still stuck, still can't get out. The light goes on and off tho! So after flipping the light button and jiggling the switch and after being really dang close to calling out for help from inside the bathroom I was finally able to get out.. and had all the people around the bathroom looking at me all weird.. Yah that's right! I got stuck in the bathroom so what! I'm a DC intern! That shut them up pretty quick..
I was able to meet up with Sister Waldorf (for those of you who remember the recent RUW graduate Spencer Waldorf, it's his momma.. she's also the mother of Doug Waldorf (my teachers quorum adviser back in the day!!), who is married to Angie Gandolph, who's Meg's older sister.. but not oldest.. had to add that in there, sensitive topic..) at the bus station and she and her family were so nice to let me stay with em over night! It was awesome! I can't even tell you how nice it was to be treated to good ole southern hospitality in the north! It was really great to spend time with them. Like really great! :) They still have 2 kids at home, Jon and Elizabeth, and i realized that they're both the same ages as MY SIBLINGS!! (Except they act way way older.. sometimes ;) ).
But lemme tell you what it was tough as we got closer to Georgetown.. I started gettin nervous. Real nervous. But I've been to Japan before! That's clear across the world!! Different language! Different culture! Different everything! This can't be nearly as tough.. As we pulled up I called up my roommates cuz they'd offered to help me out with my stuff whenever i arrived and they all came down to help bring my luggage up! It was classic!!!!! I seriously wanted to laugh sooo hard!!! I'd joked with Steph about needing to bring glasses with me so I'd look more the part.. and yah all 3 of the guys who came down had glasses. :) It actually made me really happy hahaha. They really just look the part! I'm a tad jealous. I hope i fit in well enough..
tips anyone??
Hahaha see now, Jeff... if you'da been wearing those super cool glasses of yours, you mighta been able to see how to work that bathroom door lock... ;)
