Chapter 3: I Can See Clearly Now

I started to think about happy things and listening to some positive songs including Walking On Sunshine by Katrina And The Waves, I Can See Clearly Now by Jimmy Cliff, and Footloose by Kenny Loggins. Some of the oldies. Don't judge, they're classics, I was thinking about going to a dancing studio when I get there and practice dancing. I think it would be a great experience and something to help with my stress.

I looked at my ticket after they took my bags and put them on the plane. I just smiled thanking them and as I boarded the plane. I was so excited and happy I get to be on my own now. I just have to call and check it. I'll probably call twice a week because there's so much to do in London. I have to find my apartment, I have to find a job, I have to get to know the area, and unpack my bags. There's so much to be done. After everything settles down I'll call every other day. I'm a 20 year old woman. I have big plans.

I went to the bathroom. I then found my seat, buckled up and I was glad it was a window seat because I'll be sleeping the whole time which is 7 to 8 hours depending on the winds and rain. I'm from New York, so yeah. I grabbed my blanket from my carry on and covered up with it. I turned my phone on airplane mode, leaned my seat back, and waited for the plane to take off. Within 20 minutes the pilot made the announcements rapping and it was cool. I smiled and looked out the window as the plane took off on the runway. I couldn't contain my excitement any longer. I smiled widely and continued to look out the window as we took off.

I haven't been on a plane before, so I have no idea if I'm going to get sick or what. I sure as well hope not. I can see clearly now all my worries and complaints fade away into the clouds and melted by the hot sun. It felt amazing to be free finally. I put my earphones in and started to fall asleep listening to some calm and soothing music.

I woke up to feeling sick in my stomach. I got up and scurried to the bathroom. Good thing there's no one beside me. I through up in the toilet and held my stomach. I stopped and looked up and looked in the mirror. I turned on the mini sink and took some water in my mouth. I spit it out. It got rid of the flavor a little bit. I got in my pocket and popped a mint in my mouth. I put my hair in a messy bun and left the bathroom heading back to my seat I got on my phone and played games the rest of the flight to London, which was 2 hours.

I smiled when the light showed up to put on our seatbelts. I got sick 5 times in the last 2 hours. I did what was told and looked out the window. I felt the bumps and smiled widely. I looked around and saw the sign of Welcome To Hearthrow Airport. With London, England after words. I took a breath and got up putting my blanket it my bag again. I was on British Airways which I would say is one of the best airplane company in the UK. That's what I heard any way.

I looked at my phone at how cold it was. I noticed it was in the 60s. I put on my purple sweatshirt and got off the plane and took in the new fresh air. It as amazing. I'm glad I wore skinny jeans that were comfortable. I smiled and got my bags and looked around at the somewhat cloudy sky. I smiled and turned off the airplane mode on my phone and headed into the airport.

I looked around, "Wow!" It's a huge airport. I got my bags checked and went through security. Then I called my dad to tell him that I made it safely. I just hope that my phone will work. I called and I heard it ring. I smiled widely as it rang.

Within a few rings I heard his voice on the other line, "Hello?" he yawns.

I then remembered the time difference, "Hi daddy. I'm sorry to wake you, but it's Rosetta. I've arrived in London. I just wanted to call to let you know"

"I'm glad you made it safely," He didn't sound so asleep anymore.

"I know it's 3 AM there in New York, but it's 8:00 AM here and I'm tired. Is everything at the apartment and where is it at?"
