14 hour plane rides sound fun at first, I think my mum sold it to me by explaining there would be provided TVs and snacks which is basically a regular Saturday for me anyway, but I've never been on a plane for longer than 4 hours. I didn't realise you could get cramp in your shoulder until now and I feel sick from the chocolate that was supposed to calm my nerves. "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are due to land in around 5 hours time, due to turbulence we advise you to fasten your seat belts. Once again thank you for flying with American Airways and hope you are having a nice experience with us today" announces a leggy blond stewardess with a Whiney high pitched voice. I quickly fasten my seatbelt, my heart beating rapidly out of my chest, I take a swig of water. My mum and dad are flat out asleep and my sister is playing video games on her tablet. I don't think I can last 5 hours more on this plane. I look towards the stewardess, who seems to be fine with a smile on her face, but they have to smile, it's part of their job, my conscience reminds me. Nothing seems to be helping; not the chocolates and plane snacks or the random episode I picked from Melissa and Joey not even the stewardess who is now laughing with one of her colleagues at the back of the plane. I quickly grab my mums bag and search for her sleeping pills, when I find them I chug two down with my left over water, place my headphones over my eyes, close my eyes and hope the best.
