so i was driving along today, after class and after going to various professors for letters of recommendations for hong kong, and I decided, “you know, the weather is crazy today, but I should go sailing.” So while I was driving to the sailing club, I was listening to the song “Everybody’s Free,” and I had one of those amazing moments. I was thinking about all of the places I’ve been to in life, all of the things I’ve done, and all of the possibilities that lay before me. And I had one of those moments of connection that gave me shivers for quite some time (but good shivers).
Then I went sailing. So everything is going cool, my engine stalled while I was getting out to the main bay to hoist the sail. I hoist it, zip around for a while, then decide it’s time to come back in. But my engine is fucked up. I tried for 45 minutes, but the engine wouldn’t start. The storm that was expected is coming in and the boat is going wild, I narrowly dodge a huge pylon and I’m trying to regain control of the boat, and I ended up docking at a seaplane dock and getting help. So I think the boat is getting a new motor, and I hope I don’t have to pay anything. Way the hell more of an adventure than I was expecting on a thursday. Anyway here’s a pic!
