The Titanic II was supposed to sail this April, but the superstitious were too many, so they set the date in September. The response was massive, every world company wanted to be involved with this cruise, they even left room for an overseas school. The ship did honor the old "ship of dreams" slogan; on the outside it was an exact replica, inside, there were nearly 20 decks with the finest amenities from golf to theatre, it even had an on-board Titanic Museum. I hope the thing isn't haunted, because I just applied for a scholarship in the Arts program.

"Little did we know where our little 'wanderlust adventure' would lead us."

The auditorium became quiet when a man in a fancy suit made his way to the stage. The RMS or Royal Marine School had partnered with several businesses to offer full scholarships to study abroad the Titanic II.

After months of essays, video tapes and endless interviews I found myself at the local theatre. "We're proud of the determination showed by each and every one of the young students..." The man held his speech with rhythm, but I couldn't sense full honesty. All they want is a good story, i thought. A good story so they can praise themselves in the enchanting tale of helping a poor orphan fulfill his dream of going to college.

I have been living everywhere and nowhere since my parents died when I was 15. I never came back to Wisconsin, and if I'm being honest with myself, I really don't think I have the courage to. I've always been quite the bohemian, longing to travel the world, explore different cultures, different feelings, always looking for something... or maybe just running away from reality, a reality I would have to face someday... but not today. Today is the culmination of the journey that began that day in Paris when I saw the ad on the newspaper.

I made myself a living making drawings at the main touristic spots in Europe and people seemed to enjoy my work, so I sent a letter to the RMS with one of my drawings when I had the chance.

"Semester at sea was slightly more realistic" someone whispered shyly, interrupting my thoughts. "There's one spot in each program, and we're talking the greatest ship in the world"

"When you've got nothing, you have nothing to lose" I replied "My name's Jack Dawson"

"Fabrizio" The short tanned boy said with a flashing smile as we shook hands.

"You're not from here, are you Fabrizio?"

"I'm from Italia. I'm traveling alone in my own wanderlust adventure" he had a very thick accent.

"Cool. Me too."

My eyes couldn't believe what was written on that diploma. Jack Dawson. Art Scholarship. September-March 2022. Seven months. Seven months traveling the world. Studying art. Traveling the world. In the world's largest cruise ship.

"Ragazzo!" I got used to that voice interrupting my inner monologue pretty quick. "Congratulazioni amico mio" We just met, and he already considered me a friend? That's nice. I looked over my shoulder to find him, I saw a few overexcited faces, many disappointed, specially from the parents, and most of them wanted to just go home already since they were going abroad anyways.

"Congratulations to you too!" I stole a glance at his diploma. "Wow, Culinary School?"

"I bet Gordon Ramsay will love my food when we dock in April!"

"I bet he will"

We exchanged phone numbers and quickly became best friends. Our thoughts resembled and we had a very similar way of seeing life, so it wasn't hard; besides, we would be classmates on the ship. It had been a good night.

You're now live!
