Waiting for the shuttle to get here in like... an hour... because I'm a babu when it comes to flying so I've been up and down trying to sleep since midnight.

Aaaye moving is exciting.

(It really is I just hate flying.)

Doha Airport, Qatar

My plane landed a few hours ago.

I stepped out of the chilly safety of the plane, greeted by the afternoon sun, the temperature 44 degrees. I hastily made my way to the bus, eagerly through security (even though I had to unpack almost completely), and found myself in a part of the world I had never visited, or even wanted to, for that matter.

The airport itself seemed, massive at first glance, a beautiful building filled with shops, cafeterias and restaurants, prayer rooms and smoking lounges, and business lounges for the fancier traveler. I, myself, made my way through the hallways, frantically looking for a sign with a little cigarette on it. It felt troubling to find how much I craved for one only after a 6 hour flight, when I still had an 11 hour flight ahead.

After indulging myself, all I wanted was to sit down. I felt dizzy and unwell, suspecting that the painkillers hadn’t quite settled right. I took a seat on some random benches, incredibly tempted by the airports in-terminal hotel. Instead, I tried to read.

I brought with me ”American Gods” by Neil Gaiman. While I am still new to Gaiman’s literature (only having read ”Norse Mythology”), I read through the novel pages eagerly, thoroughly invested in the narrative. Reading always makes me feel better, to see things more clearly. After two hours of Shadow’s adventures with Mr. Wednesday, I put my book back into my purse, and found a little cafeteria, where I am currently seated.

I drank a cup of chamomile tea, and it felt like a magic potion. I feel miles better, the staff is incredibly pleasant. I still have a long wait ahead of me, but I think through the powers of tea, music and Gaiman, I will be fine.

But now, my injured hand feels far too painful to write with. I will finish my drink, pack up my laptop and wander back to the smoker’s lounge.

So this is happening all weekend. I have a bad fear of flying, just thinking about it makes me panicky. The noise is the worst, but they are so amazing it kinda nullifies that anxiety. Best video I've gotten so far... #blueangels #scaredmetodeath #ihateplanes #butitscool #seattle #capitolhillseattle #seafair2016 #seafair
