Before first flight

[near_epiphany]

Despite flying 5-6 times a year (for 2 years), it still kinda terrifies me. It's ridiculous, but I'm scared of crashing or stalling somewhere or something. My trip to San Diego in July kinda made me worry about weather and how it affects planes flying.

BUT BOSTON FOR 5 DAYS! And this airport music is kinda decent. It's interesting! But I'm so so sleepy. Ridiculous. Hopefully I can fall asleep on the plane. Because sleep deprived Ariel is a sad Ariel..

Boston in 8 hours!

I feel you. I was never scared of planes till I watched a movie with a plane accident, now I'm terrified of them for a billion reasons I won't explain because I doubt it'll help, haha.

Nonetheless, statistically plane accidents are VERY rare in general, and the fact that you don't take one every day makes the chances of you being injured or dying in one even more slim. Yes, it could happen, but you're more likely to die in your everyday life than on a plane. I know the fear isn't a logical thing, but reminding myself how rare it is to die on a plane makes them look even safer than the ground in a way, and helps me relax a bit.

PS: BOSTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
