A brewing rant.

Haiku-a-day:


Mar 6th
Everything is just
chaos when you’re trying to
organize a group.

I'm not sure how tomorrow will function.  I have no idea when my brewing group is meeting to brew.   I also don't know where we're supposed to brew.   Everything is unclear.  Only 2 group members have actually been responding to my emails (meaning 2 haven't), and none of use knows what's going on.  This is a huge part of our grade and I don't even know what to do.  I've email the professor (twice) with no response, so this will be interesting.  We didn't even pick a beer as a group.  In fact, one person suggested 2 types of beer.  Me and the only other person who have been trying to communicate were up for anything.  So, after waiting until after 4:00PM today, I gave in and sent in our selection to the professor.  Yup, I had to make an executive decision for the group.  What would they have done without me?  =)  

In other news, today I booked my flight from Shannon, Ireland to Pisa, Italy.  I'm traveling by myself for the day.  The route is from Shannon to London and from London to Pisa, arriving about 2:30ish.  My goal is to get to Florence this day, but since there are (more or less) cheap trains that run from Pisa to Florence all day, I think I'll spend a little time in the city, which is only 1 kilometer away from the airport!  Nice and close!  As I've just mentioned, I'll take a train from Pisa to Florence (1 hour) whenever I'm ready and then catch up with friends there.  From Florence, the plan is to go to Venice (leaving the next day, so I won't get too much time in Florence *sad*), then head over to Greece to do some island hopping. 

Wish me luck for tomorrow!  I hope things turn out OK!

  1. Megan, you're going to LOVE Florence! Be careful traveling alone, though. When are you going? I'm so excited for you!

  2. I'll only be alone for about 12 hours! I'm sure that can't be too bad! My spring break begins at the end of this month and lasts until May 3rd! The plan is to travel for an entire month, so I'll be in Italy sometime around April 13th.

  3. Oh, good- 12 hours isn't bad! That's so funny that you said that you'll be in Italy around April 13th, because that's the exact day that I went to Italy! It's my friends birthday and I remember we celebrated when we got there. Anyway, don't stress too much- vacation is around the corner!

  4. Haha, that's funny! I'm trying not to stress, but it's hard when your deadline is less than 24 hours away and you have class to stand in the way!
