It's 9 am, and I am leaving in three hours. I get up and brush my hair I put it up in a ponytail, and put my hairbrush straight into my suitcase. I think I have everything packed now. I close my bag and put it by the door, ready for when I leave

I get changed into my white jeans, black converse, Pikachu t-shirt and put my So So Happy hoodie over the top. I'm not hungry, so I brush my teeth. Damn, I forgot to pack that.

Once I'm finished brushing my teeth, I put my toothbrush and toothpaste into my toiletry bag.

Now to get my handbag ready. Of course, I put in my chewing gum. I also put in Mocking Jay and The Hunger Games. I've almost read the series ten times. I also pack my phone and camera, a water bottle and my iPod.

For the next hour and a half, I sit and watch TV. I now have 30 minutes until my flight, and I am finally leaving for the airport.

"Hey guys, so I'm heading off to the airport. I can't wait to get to my destination!"

I arrive at the airport and check in my bag. I go over and wait to be let on. I buy a doughnut, and once again, it comes straight back up. What is wrong with me? Maybe my sickness is just lasting longer.

My plane is called to board. I hand my ticket over and walk to the plane. I am praying that there are no crying infants in this plane. They always make plane rides horrid.

Once we are in the air, I pull out my camera.

"Hey guys, I'm on the plane now. I can now tell you that I am going to Australia! Yes, that's right, I'm going to see my friends and family for a few days, then coming back to LA! I'll see you later!" I stop recording then the girl next to me speaks.

"What were you just doing?" She has an English accent, which I love.

"I was vlogging for YouTube," I respond quietly. The girls face light up before speaking again.

"Me too! My names Fleur!" Fleur. Joey knows a Fleur; I think he mentioned something about her being a Youtuber.

"I'm Katie, do you by any chance know a Joey or Meghan?"

"Yes, I do. Oh my god, your Katie, I know you, I do recall seeing you in a vlog of Joey's."

"Cool, it's nice to meet you Fleur." I quickly grab back out my camera and record again. "Is it alright if I vlog with you for a second?" I ask.

"Yes, of course, go for it," Fleur responds.

"Alright guys, so I just found out that I am sitting next to a fellow Youtuber! This is Fleur, you may or may not have seen her videos. But I think you should; she seems like a nice person. Whats your channel name?"

"Fleurdeforce." She says.

"Ok, go check out Fleur's channel and subscribe!" I turn off my camera and put it away.

"Thank you, Katie! That was so kind of you. I would like to continue talking, but I'm quite tired and need to rest." Fleur explains.

"That's fine."

Minutes later Fleur is fast asleep, and the food cart comes around. Usually, I would buy some Pringles because I would be starving, but I am surprisingly full, even though there is nothing in my body.

This sickness is starting to concern me; usually, I am all about a tin of Pringles.

After a LONG time of flying, I arrive in Australia. I said goodbye to Fleur when we landed in London. For some reason, I wasn't able to get any flights directly to Australia from LA on such short notice, so I have to go all the way around the world to get home. I walk over to the rotating luggage thingy and wait for my luggage. When it comes around, I grab it and step outside the airport and grab a taxi.

The taxi takes me to the little Motel that I will be staying in. I check in and go up to my apartment. I set down my luggage and call my parents.

They are happy that I am here and are coming over later tonight to say hello. We are going out for dinner at a fancy little restaurant. I also call up Chelsea to tell her that I have arrived and can't wait until the party.

It feels weird to be back for some reason, but I'm glad I came, I was starting to miss my family and friends.

I'm glad to be back home.
