March 12th, this was indeed one of the March 12ths of all time. Because we are still on a boat out in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, which is quite cool. The water was quite chill today, just like the rest of the crossing so far, ‘tis a little meh, but it’s not unwelcomed weather, don’t hate being able to stand up without constantly being thrown to the side. Tomorrow is the first OS test of the second semester, which is cool. A couple of people are going to be trying it, so good luck to them. Overall, a standard day on the Alex II.
