since i can't sleep i might as well blog
anyway, i'll be off to europe in just under a week!
i'm starting to feel the excitement as the date gets nearer!
my friend told me "that feeling will hit u when u board the plane"

since a month ago, i have taken out my trusty old backpack from the dark corner of my closet (the backpack has been with me since 1997 and still as good as new!)
i started to pack little by little.
when i say 'pack' i mean i started chucking things i need to bring into the pack... or in the backpack zone (which means anywhere within 2 feet on the floor where my pack lies)..
so now i have things lying on d floor of my bedroom... from books to clothes to daily necessities to little gifts i might give to people i meet on the way... (meaning a really messy section on my floor! -see picture-)

mess on my floor

i haven't done a long trip like this (3 months trip) in a few years.
the last time i did that was in 2003 when i did conservation volunteer work in Australia... that was real fun and i met some really cool people!
so i am hoping to meet lotsa nice people on this trip too!

o ya, i'm gonna be travelling with a good friend from uni
we're both hoping we wont kill each other on this trip... haha

ok it's 5 now and i can hear the bird chirping outside my windows and buses turning into the bus terminal near my place...

i better get some sleep

anyway, i really don't know how often i'll be blogging but hopefully often enough to keep my friends and family updated on what'd happened to me and where i'll be heading... cos honestly, i don't really know... i mean there's plans worked out and all but life doesn't always goes as planned does it? after all, the real fun in travelling is the unexpected surprises that comes with it... that's what i think, at least! as long as i get through it fine that is! so... i'll be writing about these experiences over the next 3 months... hopefully it'll be fun, exciting, and full of wonderful surprises (fingers crossed!).

countdown to departure date - 11 days
