So we boarded the plane and located our seats. we were in the middle of the middle basically. which looked good, it was close to the toilets and there was no-one in my way to stop me from getting past/out of my seat. the seats were economy class which didn’t seem so bad at first, i was sadly mistaken. We sat down in the order of [Me], [Dad] & [Random Woman].
We all settled in our seats and the Captain greeted us. he mumbled and i didn’t know about anybody else but i couldn’t understand a fucking word he said nonetheless i just listened to his mumbles. The plane then began to move, as it did cabin crew came around to check our seat-belts were on and secure. This was always slightly uncomfortable for me since i had some strange feeling that they’d check out my package instead of my seat-belt. i was of course been an idiot because firstly; as if they were interested in me, nothing was ‘on show’ and they just wouldn’t, After that we started to gain speed, my Dad was nervous as he always is when flying. The plane then took off and we began our ascension into the sky. My Dad had his eyes closed as expected and i was enjoying the strange sensation of been weightless that we all felt.
We then smoothed out and the plane was stable and “safe”. My Dad began to relax from then on and we looked at each other as if to say ‘we’re gonna be in america soon!’ although i was more like ‘fuck you looking at?’ Ha, but anyways the cabin crew did that thing they like to do before you can truly relax. i like to think of it as them trying to scare the living shit out of you. they demonstrated all the safety procedures and talked about what to do if we should crash.
Moments later i pulled out the “Entertainment Guide” from the little pouch in-front of me. The following movies would be shown: Big Year, Happy Feet 2, In Time, I Don’t Know How She Does It and… some other crap that i can’t remember. Also TV programs to be shown were: Simpsons, Futurama, Malcolm In The Middle and some history of a battle that happened a long time ago. i was slightly gutted because the choice of films that would be played on the way back looked slightly better. i decided that i’d watch Big Year, In Time & The Simpsons, Futurama and Malcolm In The Middle.
Big Year was the main movie so this meant it wouldn’t be repeated like the others. This obviously meant it made sense to watch that first. It starred Owen Wilson, Jack Black & Steve Martin. It was a film about bird watchers doing a competition to spot the most birds the competition is called “Big Year” it was a comedy film. Owen Wilson played the champion of previous competitions who was obsessed with it. Jack Black played a “loser” like role in that he wasn’t successful at anything but had a keen interest in bird watching. Steve Martin played a business man who was the head of a company but he had gotten bored of it and just wanted to relax and enjoy his life. I expected it to be very very funny but it wasn’t. It was good but nothing that would appeal to most people. i enjoyed it since it had a message behind it all which i won’t spoil in-case some reads this and watches it. (unlikely i know!)
After the film finished all the other films had finished in sync and it was a slightly boring amount of time before anything started again. now i wondered what to watch since at the time “In Time” didn’t look to appealing especially since it starred Justin Timberlake. So i watched The Simpsons which was the episode where itchy and scratchy gets closed down because of Bart & Lisa. Following that i watched Futurama which was the episode where Bender is in fear that he won’t be remembered and on a mission Leela,Fry & Bender get stranded and forced to be slaves for Egyptians. Bender exploits the situation and becomes Pharaoh, i had seen this episode a billion times but i watched it nonetheless.
Once that had ended it was Malcolm In The Middle time. i watched it and enjoyed it like always. unfortunately i can’t the episode that was aired. :S slightly confusing since it’s vaguely in my head but oh well. After that had ended i was hoping that we’d be landing in next to no time But i read the info screen on channel 13 and it said “Time To Destination: 4hr 48mins” i was gutted. My ass was also starting to hurt which wasn’t a good sign this early in. i was going to stand up and stretch but there were so many people standing up i couldn’t be bothered. i thought that i’d try to sleep. i tilted my head slightly and closed my eyes but it was no good this wasn’t comfortable at all. i adjusted my seat so it went back a little although i did feel bad for whoever was sitting behind me But then again why would they let you adjust your seat if it would affect the person behind you? Any who i moved around and just tried to get comfortable, my Dad obviously saw my struggle and said “rest your head on my shoulder” i thought “sweet” and placed my head on his shoulder but it was still no use i was in an awkward position and as much as i am flexible this was stupid. I was sat in my seat with my head on my Dads shoulder, it was straining my neck so i just sat up and said “forget it”
I then put the Radio on and listened to what they had to offer. there was Spanish music and instrumental music but it wasn’t the best of the Genres so that sucked Oh and there was a shitty station that played Rihanna or however you spell it and other such pop crap. i thought “well it’s better than nothing” some shit songs played and some not so bad ones played. “Starry Eyed” played which I’ve always thought was okay, i was also annoyed because i heard this song “Beautiful Monster” and the more it played the more i liked it which was impossible considering it was a pop shit fuck song But i did like it. I couldn’t figure out who sung it and it annoyed me because i actually wanted to hear it more often, So i made a mental note to remember that song until i got home or checked it on a computer in the U.S.
About an hour passed and i was began to get bored shitless and uncomfortable. i then flicked through the channels and stumbled upon “In Time” it had started about 5 or so minutes ago so i thought “fuck it, why not?” i then began to watch it with no idea of the plot, As i watched it i began to learn that it was a really good film and was very interesting. i watched it to the end and it was great. i can’t be bothered to explain it so just click this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Time and it will tell you all you need to know. i then checked the time til touchdown and it was something like 2hrs or so. i was so bored. i then ventured out of my seat and to the toilet, i stretched my legs and then sat back down.
I suffered the Radio and the same Simpsons, Futurama and Malcolm in the middle episodes until the plane was ready for landing. Just to clarify the radio wasn’t english radio or anything good at all it was the same 8 songs or something played on loop. Eventually The captain said it was time to land and so we began to descend. My Dad closed his eyes again as we shot down and landed safely. So we were here AMERICA. Now all we had to do was get past the embassy and security (which is a lot stricter than anything else) and we would be free.
(I later found the song i liked was Ne-Yo Beautiful Monster. I listened to it when i got home and it is pure shit, what was i on?)

Soooooooo… We were due to fly to the U.S OF A on the 7th of april and the night before i stopped at my Dads so that it was easy to go to the train station the next day, anyway it was friday (the 6th) it had reached 10pm and we had to be awake at 4:40am so we decided to call it a night.
after tossing and turning for about an 2hours i managed to slowly doze off but then suddenly the sound of the front door crashing open was heard and i was awake once again. i laid in bed O_O praying it wasn’t my time to die or something along those lines. i then remembered that my dad told me “Dannys gone out for his birthday so he might come in pissed at like 2 or something” i then thought “it could be him but it is a bit early” so i just waited. i heard grumbling and confirmed it was him. i then attempted to resume sleep but fate had other ideas. he stumbled into his room and then undressed himself i believe. i then heard “Uhorrh” followed by a loud crash. i laughed slightly because he fell down.
i then heard my dad leave his room to help his friend. “are you alright mate?” i heard him say there were exchanging of words and grumbling and eventually he helped him and whatnot apparently Danny was naked (thank God i didn’t see)
my Dad then went back to bed. i shut my eyes and attempted to sleep once again. a few moments later i heard Danny stumbling around and my Dad assisting him again. Apparently Danny wanted to call his girlfriend, he went on for minutes saying “fucking phone” “bastard phone work!” turns out he couldn’t dial properly since he was pissed. eventually he went to bed and i managed to gain sleep.
The next morning came so fast that it felt like i hadn’t slept at all. we walked down to the train station at 5:00am dragging our luggage. we were cold and tired. we boarded the train and i got smiled at by a pretty girl (score!) we then sat down and i sorta fell asleep with my eyes open whilst been fully aware of what was going on.
we then arrived at the airport picked up our flight tickets and checked in smoothly. We then chilled around the airport until it was time to board. people rushed to get on which still makes no sense since we all had assigned seats.
