Countdown

slated in moments at 9:54 am

leaving in nearly 24 hours… i should get into my bed nowish… i won’t be back there again til next year. tomorrow leaving the house at 3amish.. if i do get any sleep, it’ll be a lil half-nap downstairs or something.

computer will stay behind. it’ll live. i’ll live. travelling lightly—we’ll see if i’m capable of this—i’ve not yet begun to pack… i did, however, get most of my music together and other files i’ll wat on my 40-gig iAudio M3. it’s not an ipod, but it’s got radio and voice recording (ooh..just realized i may be using that feature for more than i’d thought…yesss!) and it’ll take good care of me. gotta bring my two lil photoalbums… need some clothes,underwear,shoes, notebooks,pens, ...hm… ooh..passport and related stuff… better remember to bring my IC (identification card)..

i’ll be in Tokyo a night, Kuala Lumpur about a week, and Penang most of the time. possibly will make it up to China (first trip ever, if it happens) or to Singapore (it’s been a long, long while)—but we won’t do both if we do either. ‘am going to visit my Grandfather and family, sans the cousins who are off at universities in various other parts of the world. am going with my parents and brother; been a long long long time since the four of us have left this country together… good gracious.. it really has… oh gosh… have we been back there together but once since we moved here? i think so…

chocolate chip cookies! i hope i remember/get to grab some at the store tomorrow (no time to make)... must visit MVA to take care of car stuff.. i’ll miss Bluey, but it’ll (he/she?) be in good hands.. gonna be a cold cold winter said the Almanac.. i’ll be pleased to be in 80+ degree weather.. just give me a chance to complain about the heat and humidity. i’m pretty sure i’ll mind it less than my fingers and toes all numb cuz it’s frickin cold.

i’m going to sleep a bit now… 25 hours left for sleeping, eating, showering, packing, MVAing, goodbyeing, arranging, billpaying, fish caring, everythingelseing.

  2. I’ll leave the complaining about the humidity to you, but I can join in a chorus about 80 degree weather running up to Christmas ;-).

    Have a great trip. Enjoy the heck out of everything. Greet a random stranger and tell them Remi said hi. Nothing like a little friendly chaos in the world.
