Today, I overcame my debilitating seasickness long enough to have a shower and take a breath of fresh air on the cruise ship balcony. Then as a reward, a passing seagull shat on my head. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after a stressful series of events, I went to the beach to unwind. I sat on the sand, breathed in deeply and closed my eyes, trying to find some sort of inner peace. Then a seagull shat on me. FML
Today, I got to live my life's dream of going whale watching. Apparently my true life's dream was to get extremely seasick, sunburned to a crisp, and pay $60 to see only seagulls in the end. FML
Today, I boarded my very first cruise, in order to relax and unwind for week-long vacation. However, when I got on the ship, I found out that I get seasick REALLY easily. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went on a 1 day cruise to the Bahamas. It happened to be on the same day of the worst sailing conditions. We spent 6 hours throwing up together. Him into the sink, and me into the toilet. We spent $200 to see the inside of our cabin's bathroom. FML
Today, I returned from a 5-day cruise for my senior spring break, filled with gorgeous sorority girls from all over the country. I was seasick the whole time. FML
Today, during a boat trip with my boyfriend's family, I got seasick and went to the side of the boat to puke. A current rocked the boat so badly that I fell overboard, prompting a panicked rescue and my boyfriend's mom muttering that I'm a pathetic attention whore. FML
Today, I found out the hard way what it feels like to have a seagull poo on your face while cycling. FML
Today, I was out riding and a seagull pissed on me. It got in my mouth. FML
Today, it's day two of my two-month summer job on a Mediterranean cruise ship. I'm incredibly seasick, and the ship is still docked. FML
Today, I got my own row on an almost full transatlantic flight. All it took was having food poisoning two hours into the flight. FML

Why did you go on a cruise if you have debilitating seasickness?

Maybe the OP didn't know they had seasickness until they were on the cruise.

One thing you can do to help is go to the back of the boat. It sways slightly less than the front, as it is the front of the boat that cuts the waves.

The first time I went off-shore tuna fishing, I synchronized puked with a friend for about four hours on twelve foot swells. Another friend turned yellow, then green. My brother, who was drunk, but not seasick, thought this was hilarious and kept screeching,"why ask why," because I had drank an enormous amount of Bud Lite the night before and this was Budweisers' annoying ad campaign at the time. The salty captain informed us,"we were not allowed to puke off his boat," To which my friend said,"shut up bitch, can't you see were chummin." The amazing thing was how fine I felt while it was my turn in the chair reeling in, only to resume puking once the tuna was boated. Once I was back on dry land, I remembered to wave good-bye to the captain with my middle finger. One of the best times I ever had.

One of the coolest things about cruise ships is the doctors, who are always very willing to subscribe medications of all sorts, especially seasickness meds. You need to visit him; you'll very much enjoy the rest of your trip!
