I’m pleased to say I’ve managed to catch up with a lot of my pals over the last few weeks, it’s incredible, there are people you can be out of contact with for years at a time, and yet when you get back in touch it’s like you only saw them a couple of weeks ago. It’s for those sorts of people that I’m truly grateful, and am so very lucky to have in my life. For those that I’ve not had a chance to see or speak to, rest assured that this trip has come upon me much faster than I realised it would, and hope that the occasional email will keep things going until I’m back… and if not… well I think a trip to visit me in Oz is in order!
Well, I need to finish fitting 12 months worth of clothes into a rucksack… and pack away the electronic goodies that will keep me entertained on the those rainy days, (Special thanks to Mr. Lee and Mr. Vong for a helping hand on this!) so for now I’ll bid you all farewell.
By the way, if anyone wants to receive a postcard in the next 12 months, make sure you email me your full address!
Now sing with me… I recall Central Park in fall…
Right, so last night I had a great New Year's Eve, dancing for goodness know how many hours in great company in a venue with a really positive buzz about it. Great fun, although it led to only getting 3 hours sleep... so why is it that I was still awake at 1.30 tonight! Grr. Well I've taken the only sensible course of action... get up, make a steaming pan full of Thai style soup, and put my first entry into my new Blog!
I dare say the fact I seem unable to sleep might have something to do with the fact that in a few short hours I'll be starting my final week at Visiontext, marking the run in to some very big changes, challenges and opportunities... me running off to Australia for... well... we'll see how long! It'll be odd next Monday, not having to get up to work, not having to hop on public transport of some sort and spend an hour or so in each direction filling the time... listening to music, reading, dozing... or just staring put the window! But most of all it will be odd not going into an environment that I'm utterly secure in, surrounded with friends, and all the warm toasty apathy that sort of environment incubates. On one hand I'm going to miss some of that security, and of course I'm going to miss the people, but I can't wait to shed the apathy and throw myself into this new adventure with a willingness to embrace all the opportunities that come my way!
This week's going to be hectic, probably a little emotional, but I also suspect a lot of fun... bring it on!
