begin countdown: take 1

i am finally officially counting down my days till i leave the country. it's strange how something as big as heading to the other side of the world can be discounted by everyday shit that goes by. i keep counting, but i hadn't been CELEBRATING the act of counting down to my doomsday where i will live on bread and water - correction: rye bread, in amsterdam...and what other than...cookies :P only kiddin'! tat's not all i'm doin (i swear!)

i will be in: budapest, prague, vienna, london, amsterdam, porto, lisbon, sintra, madrid, tokyo in 34 days. too much? blame kenny (i mean, thank kenny, that sweet guy...........). he set up the hectic as hell itinerary to get as much out of the maiden trip as possible. if it was me, i'd stick to 3 countries in that kind of timeframe, but that's coz i'm lazy.

or i'll just throw up 5 day straight like last time to disrupt the flow of the journey.

speaking of lazy i still hadn't picked up our air tickets for the trip :D

salsa lessons have been great so far. i will miss them when we head overseas. our final salsa class is the night before we wake up at 5am to get to the darned airport to fly to tokyo for an overnight stay. i hadn't been out of the country in a couple of years - namely the one other time where i cried on the way to the airport. why do i get emotional about things that don't mean much to others?

i feel the need to pack quite soon.

should be catching up with catherine, james, julya, jamie, derek and co, all before i set off!

anyway i almost forgot to do the actual countdown: 9 days to lift off...
