Context: I absolutely could not wait to go on my cruise this summer! I had so many fun activities planned that I just wanted to jump out into the ocean and swim to my destinations, just to get started!
Speaker 1: A week before my cruise this summer, I was counting down the days with bated breath. I thought I would actually DIE before I got to go on it.
Speaker 2: It's the worst waiting for vacations! You want the time before to go fast but then it to go slow during. Never works out that way, unfortunately.
Speaker 1: Yes! Completely the opposite of what you want. The universe can be funny like that. But I had an absolute blast!
Speaker 2: That's great! I'm glad you had a good time. I've never been on a cruise before but it sounds like I need to try one out!
