PLEASE TAKE ME BACK TO THE CRUISE I MISS IT SO MUCHHHHH 😭😭😭

hey guys its been another two months since the last blog so i think its time to do another one!!! i feel like two months is a great amount of time between posting a blog cuz enough time passes by where you can still clearly remember what happened in the last post but theres enough events that happened between then and now to yap about here so here we go!

last post was about the horrible horrendous situation that happened at the pool party last july in which i completely fumbled a bag 😵‍💫.. and also me worrying about college stuffs

well absolutely nothing happened with her between then and now except her parents and little sister visited my house to check it out before i move out and her little sister drew a cute cat drawing for me and its so adorable but i dont know where it went (sorry 🥺)

but just because im not going anywhere with this girl doesnt mean im completely hopeless! i went on a cruise last week and it was the literal best time of my life thus far (maybe behind japan but its definitely up there) and this time your boy didnt completely fail at interacting with the opposite gender! id say most of the people on the cruise that i still talk to now are girls cuz the boys dont really talk to each other on insta/snap.. but i do!

so it all started on the second day of the cruise because i made a huge blunder and didnt do anything on the first day.. but its alright cuz im really good at making friends totally! if youre under 18 and youve been on a cruise youve most likely been to one of those teen club hangout places where you get to meet people your age.. yeah thats what i did too

my first ever friends there were a rich british kid and a gamer kid who ended up staying in the teen club the whole time playing video games in the teen club lounge instead of hanging out with the rest of the group, and then three girls who i didnt really get that close with at first (but now were basically close friends by the end of the trip)

the 6 of us went to the arcade together, the boys with the boys and the girls with the girls, and then we went to the buffet where i meet the rest of the group and we all eat together and thats basically how it all started

the group went from 6 to like 20 as i meet more people and we all play basketball together but keep in mind im really shit at basketball! like we ended up doing a schoolyard pick one time and i was one of the last people to be chosen (i know how it feels now it sucks) and i made a grand total of 0 shots! but its okay at least im good at defense

that night we all go to the hot tub and thats when things start going down.. the boys in our group (there were like 9 of them) were out peeping at the hot tub (i wasnt included cuz i dont do that) and they lay their eyes on a girl and i am not kidding when i say this but every single one of them went up to the tub and tried rizzing her up 😭and most of the rest of the group were there too but we werent really part of it we were just there watching.. needless to say the girl ended up joining our group so mission success i guess?

anyways after all that we went back to our rooms except we didnt and just chilled at the elevator for like an hour.. we did the really stupid but fun stuff teens do like going up and down the elevator repeatedly and clicking all the buttons and just chilled there, and the floor of the elevator had the day of the week that the workers replace every day at midnight so we just waited for them to come and they did and it was really hype but then we went back to sleep 😴 

the third day we landed in santa catalina but i wasnt with my friends so its not really relevant to the story. well i did come across the girls from the buffet and hot tub but other than that nothing else really happened. i did buy a lei and heart shaped sunglasses there tho, which is apparently relevant for later

when we got back to the boat i was looking for the group and then i saw the boys in our group peeping at girls at the pool and hot tub.. i didnt really wanna join them cuz they were being weird but they saw me and told me to come with them so i kinda had no choice ☹️  

so i was just mindlessly following them around for like 30 minutes until one of them decided to stay behind and so we lost the rest of the boys.. so i wandered around until i found the girls in our group (the ones from the arcade/buffet/hot tub) at the helipad so i decided to go there and ngl i preferred hanging out with the girls a lot more than the guys cuz all the boys talk about are sports and women and drugs and money and theyre all just douchey but with the girls i actually felt comfortable with talking about my interests and listening to theirs

so we hang out at the helipad for a few minutes until we head back, but then we encounter the boys and keep in mind theyve been looking for girls this whole time so when they see me with a group of like 5 other girls they all get jealous and theyre asking me my secrets but there isnt really a secret just dont be douchey or weird

so i go back to the helipad with the rich british kid and the other guy (they arent part of the douchey subgroup they were just there) and the british kid mentions that its the perfect weather to do a backflip, and at that point i made the biggest blunder of all time.. yeah you probably know where this is going. the helipad (at the front of the ship looking forward) is surrounded by benches looking out into the ocean. yeah i tried doing a backflip. yeah it did not go too well. i tried jumping from one of the benches but i ended up kicking the planks clean off the bench, and since im mid backflip, i fall to the floor and land on my arm, completely bruising the forearm from elbow to wrist, and it was all bloody. the other two ran away, and i followed them, and a few others from the group wanted to see what happened, so i showed them my arm, and i led them to the broken bench with the planks off. suddenly the ship workers appeared out of nowhere and the rest of the group ran back to the inside of the ship, but i stayed there cuz i had to take accountability. luckily the workers didnt really care and just fixed it, and i didnt get in trouble whatsoever, so lucky me i guess?

later on that night we had to go to dinner, and i successfully hid the scars from my family, but when we got back, i met up with my friends again at the hot tub. i was with the girl from the buffet and a new girl who just joined the group. one of the douchey guys (we call him noodlehead cuz his hair looks like noodles) gave me a playful splash and then i playfully splashed him back, and we went back and forth with splashing. the new girl was recording the whole thing and it got worse and worse until eventually the douchey guys all ganged up on the girl (with her phone btw) and straight up barraged her with a bunch of splashes, that is until the security came in and confronted the douchey guys. they said it was our fault and when they came up to us i took responsibility for them. and then one of the guys mentioned they wanted to fight me??? like i took the blame for you why do you wanna fight me???

i went with the girls from the helipad down to the bar and we played a bunch of classic games like uno, charades, impostor, the such. it was such a vibe id rather do that than be splashed by a bunch of jocky guys. we went back on the elevator and hung out there and found a new hangout spot in front of the womens bathrooms by the staircase of the ship. at this point a completely different group merged with our group, and now we went from like 20 to 30 people (there werent 30 people huddled around the womens restrooms it was only like 10 of us) and we just stayed there until the security guard told us to go back to our rooms

and now its the fourth day! were in mexico! its raining! yeah yeah whatever the only thing that really matters is what happens on the boat cuz thats when all the fun stuff happen. so we meet up at the lounge where all the performances are happening cuz at that time they had karaoke, literally my favorite thing to ever do with a group of people.. and boy did i eat up! i went upstage to sing california girls by katy perry and boy did i sing my heart out... well scream my heart out. it was such a vibe i had both microphones in my hand singing into both of them.. and everyone loved my performance so much that the random woman that came after me invited me to sing this old 70s song that ive never heard before, and i still ate up 💅 and then we went to dinner cuz of course we did. 

after dinner, i met up with the rest of the group at the stairwell, which became another of our hangout spots. at this point another relationship drama was unfolding... noodlehead apparently.. lets just say one of the girls was riding on his cruise ship.. but everyone was saying he had a girlfriend at home but he kept trying to deny it. we all went back to the buffet area and hung out there, but then the girl noodlehead was with said something racist towards one of the black guys in our group and immediately everyone just started shitting on her, especially the rich british kid who mind you was only 12.

eventually it got late and we got kicked from the buffet cuz it closed so we went back to the teen club lounge cuz they were having another karaoke session, and i ate up there too, but then that had to close as well. so now were just wandering around the cruise ship, and we all split up into our different groups. i was with the wrong group at one point, with the jocky guys, but they all hid in the bathrooms, and so i went back to the group of the girls from the helipad. we hung out in the elevators and at the stairwell until it got late and we all went back to the rooms. it was the last night of the cruise, so this was the last time we saw each other, which was really sad

the next day, i had to go eat breakfast and pack and all that, and we unfortunately left the ship 😔and that concludes that story. ever since, weve just been talking to each other on instagram and snapchat and tiktok, but lets be honest, how long will it last until the gc dies? i compiled a bunch of the videos we took on the cruise and made a vlog on my youtube channel, which you guys should totally check out! https://youtu.be/VUi4N-4yaPU?si=ETBnE3YzaqTorky_

ever since the cruise, ive honestly gone through post cruise clarity, or that feeling where you miss all the fun times you had at the cruise, and miss all the people you met there.. i wish the cruise lasted a lot longer than just 4 days, but im really glad i was able to go. i didnt even know i was actually going until like two days before. well i mean i was aware of it but it didnt dawn upon me what it was actually gonna be like. i thought it was gonna be really boring cuz i didnt know anyone there, but it turns out its really easy to make friends 

with all the cruise stuff out of the way, all i got to worry about is the college stuff. i successfully got all my documents submitted and im basically ready to go! all i need to worry about is packing for now since im leaving in two weeks from now (the 12th) i got my class schedule and my roomate information, so now we just play the waiting and packing game

also i mentioned in the last post about the festival. i asked her parents and they were like "shes too introverted she probably wont want to go" so yeah i didnt go with her to the festival. its okay i still had a fun time with my other friends 🙏

tl;dr the best time of my life on a cruise
