Yesterday marked the "two weeks until I leave this place" mark. I'm still not quite sure how I feel about that. I'm completely excited to be spending five and a half months in Australia (believe you me, I start to smile whenever I think about it), but at the same token, the summer has treated me like a queen since May, and I'm starting to get that sort of nervous excitement. I mean, two weeks from today, I'm going to be on a plane, somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. Crikey +++!
The good news is, it seems as if everything is settled as far as my arrival at Deakin goes. I have my plane ticket, passport and visa. Housing is taken care of, so if nothing else, I have a place to live. Granted, I have no idea what my address is (I'll be sure to post it as soon as I find it), but I know I'll at least have a roof over my head. Last night I went to New York City to see my favorite band, the Weakerthans, with two friends. My friend Mel is going to Tokyo in August, so we spent a lot of time (amidst oogling John Samson) discussing international travel. All I have to say is they'd better release that new Weakerthans album worldwide... I need that in my life!
The only other Australia-related note I have for you at the time is that I'm planning my going away party for July 4th. So needless to say, if you're reading this, or you care about me in any fashion and think you just might, maybe miss me while I'm overseas.... you'd better be there. If you're having a party already? Well, bring them, too. The bigger the better; I'm going out with a bang.
That's all I've got for you for now. I'm still predicting that meltdown to creep up in the near future. I'm predicting... after I finish my internship and leave Kildare's. That's when it's really going to smack me across the face. Until then... later days!
