God Bless Expedia!
So, hope you all had a great weekend!
I had a rather interesting one... it started like this....
I started work on Saturday at 9:30 typing and cutting only about 1000 labels for the art competion our school is having, and then trying to perfectly put up about 1000 pieces of art work on a bunch of different display boards in a massive hall... it was the slowest moving progress that could have ever happened!
But, I busted my butt away from there around 4:00, so I could train down to Winchester to see Amanda, and the rest of my Saturday consisted of sitting in front of the TV eating pizza and ice cream... yup! I was living the life, Amanda and I had an entire boarding house to ourselves (no one else was there), and it felt like we were living in a massive mansion! It was jolly good fun!
And then... Sunday begins at an early 9:30 booking our Easter holidays! From 9:30-3:30 we sat in front of the computers yelling, screaming, crying, hysterically laughing, and threatening death and suicide, until finally we were able to book everything we need for our trip!
And then, the Expedia part comes in. After I was all happy and gleeful after having booked everything, Amanda and I discovered that when we are returning from Crete by ferry to Athens to be able to fly home, that our ferry arrived at 3:00 pm, and that somehow we were stupid enough to book the wrong flight and have also leave at 3:00 pm.
And the crying, screaming, hysterical laughter and death threats come rolling back.
But after 3 frantic phone calls to Expedia customer support line (by Amanda, because she made me order the pizza and we had only a minorly embarassing moment when I didn't know the phone number, and neither did Amanda, oh joyous occasion!), we were able to have the flights changed to the proper 6:00 pm flight (which was actually cheaper)!
Yup, I nearly ended my life this weekend, but we have now completed the booking procress of the greatest trip ever!!!
Amanda, Maria, and I head off on March 24th to Venice, Italy, followed by Florence, Rome, Athens, and Crete, Greece!
Hallelujah! I could not be more excited!!!!
And, now I'm just freaking out because I have so little time left here in England, and still so, so, so much to too, it's crazy!!
But, I'll be home soon, only 20 more weeks!
S0, take care, have a fantabulous weekend, and think of me slaving away over here in the wonderful United Kingdom! ;)
Miss you all lots, xoxoxoxox

Hey Kelly,
Do you guys have a place to stay in Venice yet?? We stayed in a great little place (we had a loft in our room!) and it was really cheap. I can find the name of it if you don't have something booked yet. Let me know. You're going to LOVE Italy!!!
