First Impressions

Day 44

I’m in Florida!  I apologize for not posting the last few days, but internet access is very difficult to procure here. That’s alright though, because there are giraffes right outside my balcony. No, really, there are.

Today I found out someone’s first impression of me.

I spent a while wandering around, looking for just the right person to ask, however, this was difficult. Most people were with their families, and I thought that they would have trouble being honest with me if their families were around. My friends and I sat down for a while, and I decided to call one of my other friends back home. Misha took the phone from me, so I took his, and called someone in his contacts I didn’t know. She picked up, and I explained that I wasn’t actually Misha, however we could still talk. She agreed, and after a bit I realized that I could use this opportunity to ask her for her first impression of me. She said that it was inherently strange, seeing as I was calling her on my friend’s phone and I didn’t know her and all, so that was alright with me. We had an interesting (or at least entertaining) conversation for a while, however there is only so much you can say to someone you don’t know. We said goodbye, and my friends and I proceeded to get lost down the hallways of the hotel for a while. The hallways are really long.
