It Begins

Tomorrow I will be taken away.

With only my best interests at heart it was decided by the powers that be that I required a holiday. I have been booked on a 6 day celebration of laziness, excess and gluttony known as a cruise with the expectation that I will relax and enjoy myself. They are thus far oblivious to the folly of their actions.

I have packed and prepared to provide myself with some tools such as to avoid the slow death that will surely stalk the hallways of this floating monument to consumption but I fear my best efforts will not be enough to shield me from the temptations presented to me and fend off the amassed swine that will surround me constantly. The sure onslaught of the dull and entitled will wear at my psyche and push me to breaking. I take with me the tools I have available to stave off the boredom and shield me from their anti-intellectualism, I have books and music and study to occupy my mind and hold the decay at bay.

Here I shall endeavour to record my experiences and my trials as a testament that others should be able to observe and find caution in their future travels.

I hope this shall not become a record of my final days.
