you make a bad danish ghost!

So Wednesday night I was sleeping on the ship at work. And things were going ok, I wasn't as freaked out as the first time I was slept onboard. Pretty much just hoping nothing would go wrong. And that I would get some sleep, that the noises wouldn't keep me up as I am a super light sleeper. So I went to bed around 11.30, after reading for a bit. And around 12.45 I was woken up by a banging noise against the side of the ship. Well it was raining and kinda windy, and my cabin is right next to the gangway and where the pipes are connected, so I just figured it was nothing. So I rolled over and snuggled back into my sleeping bag. And then I heard whispering...
...Nothing, damn, she just rolled over. This is not fun....
I was like what?!?!? So I kinda look out my porthole and see nothing. And a few minutes later, bang, bang, bang... And more whispering. And this time I realize I recognize the voices. It sounds like Amy, Amanda and Nick... WTF???
So I put on my shoes, grab my cell and a sweatshirt and go up on deck to find them.
And there is no one there....
So I look over the side and under the gangway...
Nothing.
Ok, so now I'm just hearing things...
But I swear I heard them, but figured my mind was just playing tricks on me... and I was slightly like wtf, why would the ghost sound like my friends...
Until I hear Nick's voice, so I walk off the ship to investigate and see my friends on the dock getting out of a boat.

I yelled over, nice try!
They were quite tipsy, margarita night had struck again. Amy bought Nick a juicer, so that way we wouldn't be hand squeezing limes all night. And of course they had to try it out! And thought it would be funny to try and scare me. So we stood around laughing for a good 10 minutes about it, and as I was walking off the ship, I put on my hoodie as it was raining. But I put it on backwards, and was just to whatever to care, so it was pretty funny. And we laughed and joked about it, while taking funny pictures. I told them, if only they had stayed under the stern a few mintues longer than I really would have been fooled. So after joking around for a bit, I headed back to the ship and them home to bed.

It was amusing and a great prank to try and play, but their laughing and whispering gave them away. As there is a ghost on the ship and luckily I haven't encountered them yet. The ship sank in 1905 - killing 22 Danish boys, as the ship was originally a Dutch training ship. And it is said and people have seen the ghost of some of the boys. And the creepy thing is our cabin is right where the ship was crashed. The huge hole where the boy is standing, yea. That's right where I sleep.

So the whole thing had me laughing and is another reason why I love my friends!
