Shipboard Life Mauritius to Malaysia

Life on board ship has been fun at times, stressful at times, and lonely at times. I have made tons of new friends and learned so much from the classes and interactions on board. I have posted a few pictures below of some activities on ship to share with everyone back home. The first picture is obviously a beautiful sunset during the second barbeque on the back deck. The evening was absolutely perfect and the barbeque a welcome relief from the normally bland food. The next picture is of Juice Pong on the boat during the Sea Olympics. I was the male player for the Arabian Sea but my partner Chelsea let me down a bit. Despite being held back a bit we managed to place 3rd out of 9 teams. I LIKE CAKE and the birthday party some friends threw for me was nice. I am having trouble reconciling the fact that I am now 22 and even more trouble acting like a person who is 22. I am not quite sure what a 22 is supposed to act like but my new friends like to remind me that I am one of the goofiest 22 year olds they know. Finally there is a picture of me with Archbisop Desmond Tutu. I managed to get a shot with him before a class presentation that I sat in on. He is really an incredible humble and inspiring person who deserves the credit bestowed upon him for his role in ending apartheid in South Africa. He also has one of the strangest laughs I have ever heard and I think we share a common sense of humor. When I asked if I could have a quick picture with him he responded by telling me, "No, only a slow picture."
