mad packing frenzy aside, i really am happy (too happy, in fact) to be coming home. ten months is just too long to be away.
:)
oh, and i did get to vacuum and do a gazillion other things before leaving the fukui home. now, one more class to get through and then i'm off.
**do pray for my trip. and i'll probably (reallyreally, not-just-for-pleasantry) see you soon. ;)
supposed to fly in in less than 2 days but i'm too frakkin' busy to feel psyched. today i worked 13 hours straight that i neglect: (a) feeding my facebook dog, (b) doing facebook mob jobs (c) deciding how and where to pack my clothes and (d) what i'll wear to the airport. (cries in panic).
last year's flashback of that time i checked in isn't helping either. last year, my baggage was about 3kgs too heavy. had to unload stuff (well, bags of chocolate) crouched in one corner near the check-in counter. oh the horror. (cringes in shame and prays to the airport gods it doesn't happen this year).
in panic, i might end up at the airport without a passport, without money, or without a clue how to get to the airport from nagoya (sudden amnesia!). and at the airport, what do i do with my fatgiantbag before it's time to check in? i don't really want to spend a penny on those expensive lockers but i want to be like those cool passengers at the airport, the kind with teeny-tiny baggages. plus, i haven't really written a word to start that green raket, which leads me to think i'll probably be working while on vacation. and i don't really want to vacation home with a flu, with a guilt-inducing deadline or with my period (which tends to dropby when it's most inconvenient).
somehow i ended up with a big bag chocfull of japanese pasalubs again. i think i need help, i suspect i'm a souvenir whore.
I'm about 4 work-filled days away from home. Looking forward to seeing everyone, eating plenty (chinese dimsums, i'll chew you soon!), and getting my fill of gigs and exhibits. This one should be REALLY good:
