Unexpected and Slightly Stressful

So, remember how I told everyone I was leaving Sunday?

I lied.

This morning I got up, went to breakfast with my family and Sean, went to the airport and got on a flight to Atlanta.  An hour later I was on another plane to Miami.  All going according to schedule.  We flag down the shuttle to take us to the hotel, and we arrive at the stylish marble front desk.  I find out that my reservation is not actually until Sunday night. How did I miss this?  I go to look at my ticket to Caracas, and sure enough, Departure: Monday, 22 August.  Freeze. Shock. What? However, this would not have been as horrible if not for the other lovely setbacks that happened today,

Stressful Things That Happened Today:
- Woke up at 5:45 AM
- Said painful goodbyes
- Check in luggage was too heavy, making the cost for that bag a whopping $115
- Listened to music that made me remember aforementioned painful goodbyes
- No lunch
- Constant reminder of when the airline we were on once lost my Mom's luggage
- Check in suitcase broken when claimed in Miami
- Missed the first hotel shuttle
- Spent the next half hour walking around to different money exchangers (all seemed to be on break)only to find that nowhere in the continental US exchanges Venezuelan currency.

And THEN I find out that I wasn't supposed to be here until tomorrow.

At least the flights themselves were peaceful.  Right now I'm chilling in the hotel with my Dad.  He's still leaving tomorrow like he planned and because of that will not be seeing them off, but hopefully I'll be meeting up with more people from the program tomorrow and so I won't be alone.  I really wish I hadn't messed up those dates on the ticket.  I would've really enjoyed more time with everyone in Indy. So I'm kind of upset about that.  But I'm also kind of excited about this whole trip actually happening.

I didn't mean to make my first post such a depressing one. I'll try again next time, and hopefully I'll be able to get something right eventually.
