1. YOU LOOK SO MUCH BETTER TODAY

Reaching in, I dragged the bag out of my car and walked up to the truck that was left there loaded and waiting for me. I drove it to the ferry in the harbour where five semis' and a garbage truck were placed for me to drive onboard. I had started this job only a few weeks earlier. I will tell you a secret, I had never been on boats before. The ferry was doing a thirteen-hour circle back here. Two stops on islands outside the tip of the Lofoten mountain range in Northern Norway. It was summer and only a temporary job for me, the rides I had done so far had been in fantastic weather, with tons of tourists clicking their cameras at the wonders of the midnight sun and Norway's beautiful scenery. The sailor who sold tickets to the people who stood in line to embark without cars stopped by my truck window.

It is supposed to be bad today. He told me.

How bad? I asked.

Storm, we have to tie down the trucks on the car deck after you drive them on.

Alright... I said, but Inside I was thinking Oh my god!

I drove all the semis and trucks onboard and watched them tie them down with huge flat straps. Stressed I had forgotten to eat, which is not what you should do in a storm on the sea. But I didn't know any better. An hour out I started getting nauseous but didn't know what to do about it. I walked around, and random people gave me advice.

Go out on the deck, get some fresh air, it will help.

I looked at the door to the deck... it swung open, and I saw the whole ferry float up and down. I thought that if I go out there, I will slide across the deck and fall in. Plopp
