Planning

Today I woke up feeling a little sick but I had planned to go to breakfast and meet with Courtney to plan our trip to Hydra, a Greek island, so I got up. We met and decided not to set anything in stone 'til Michael said he was for sure coming with us. I went back to my room and fell back to sleep until 12:55 and I felt better already. I went to the school and had some lunch at this small sandwich shop near my favorite bakery shop. The guy there behind the counter was weird and said I had to be extra careful in Greece being a visitor because store owners could trick me and ask me to pay more than I had to. It could have come across as a considerate remark if he hadn't said it in the creepy way that he did. Then he asked me if Minnesotans would be nice to him if he decided to stay there when he visited the U.S. I said "Yes, they would" and he smiled but I wish I had said, "Absolutely not." He also wrote the name of a documentary that I "have to watch because it has a lot of truth to it and make sure to tell the others about it." How the hell did he know there were others. Strange. The documentary is called, "Zeitgeist".

I had my Flamenco guitar lesson which was intimidating but I think I'm gonna go through with it. I stayed around the school for a while afterwards because I wanted to ask Maria, the receptionist lady for the head guy at Nakas, about other private lessons I could take, possibly in piano (I might still ask her anyway tomorrow even though I'll probably keep the guitar lesson). My guitar teacher would not leave her office though and I didn't want to go in there and possibly mention dropping his class in front of him so I never ended up walking in after many times of passing by the office and glancing in to see if he was still there. I even found a back way a couple times so he wouldn't notice me spying on him.

I walked home instead of taking the metro. The walk wasn't bad. Only about 25 minutes or so. From now on I'll walk home if I have time before dinner back at the hotel. Speaking of dinner, at dinner tonight, Mia said that she went to Hydra today but said that it was pretty boring and that one day was enough to stay there. Courtney and I were talking about going for two days. Mia also said that Paros was a cool island with a nice beach so Courtney and I are going there on Saturday. We're taking a fairy in the morning and staying 'til the evening then taking the fairy back. At least that's our plan.

I feel a lot better than I did this morning.

Star.
