Traveling Days


Our team has now started our 4 straight weekends of traveling. Joy! I’ve made a little equation on how I feel about it

Jeanne + Travelling + Brittany Buna = Hell.

If I haven’t told you this before, I get in trouble from Jeanne roughly every 15 minutes. And that is when I see her for 6 hours a day. Now if you do the math…and I travel with her for 4 days , and get in trouble every 15 minutes…that means I get in trouble a shit ton. I mean…I try to do stuff right but its never good enough, then I get annoyed, and I give up and start dicking around. You know the usual.

On top of all this travel, we were flying. Which mean the Buna luck is gunna haunt me. Surprisingly, we fly to Moscow, Idaho (aka. Middle of freakin no where) safe and sound with NO PROBLEMS…did everyone read that right NO PROBLEMS. We stay there for a couple days…swim a couple laps…you know. We do what swimmers do. Swim back and forth, wear our buns on top of our head, smell like chlorine, don’t shower. This is when it gets interesting…we are flying back home and I go to a self check in, cause that’s all they had (technology these days) and I start filling in my info. I typed in my last name…nothing. I swiped my passport…nothing. Do it again….nothing. So I go to the help desk and I tell her that I am not registering on the check-in. She takes my info and was like you are not on the flight. HAHAH WOMAN…but seriously. I call my coach over, perfect, just who I need to be with. I am going to be in so much shit…I could just feel it. It was minute 13 of not being in trouble, in 2 minutes it was about to blooowwwww. We spend 30 minutes with this lady trying to find me because the flight is full (surprising right?) after indepth research we find out that they put my last name as my middle name.

Ex. My name is Brittany K Soukoreff Buna

They put. Brittany Soukoreff. They forgot my last name. How do you do that?

Anyways after this was all sorted out we look behind us and the assistant coach, Ryan, is standing in line. Jeanne and I were like “Ryan, why on earth are you here? You should be with the team.” You know what he did. He pushed “yes” on the self check-in that he had weapons in his bag. Quote from Ryan Purdy 5 minutes earlier “Who would ever push yes for these silly questions…like who would say they had a weapon”…well clearly Ryan would. And they wonder who’s crazy…they always point the blame at me…and I have a coach who says he has weapon in an airport.

Also, I little shout out to Dani Yoho who broke the school record this weekend! And is placed top 30 in the nation. Holla!

Ps. The flight attendant on the airplane said holla to me. Is that socially acceptable?
