別の外人

This is my last day in the UK now. Got Laura staying with me at the moment, so tomorrow my parents will have two large suitcases to take to the airport. Fun times. I still have to locate my final few Chinese books, and pack my shoes, some socks and a cardi, as well as all of my electronics and an empty bag or two, but then I will be done and dusted, ready to leave the house at about 8.30am tomorrow.

Last night, went into town, met up with Kim, Reva and Demon which was nice, even if I got all teary. Dunno if it was the cocktails (an Alexander and a Chocolate Martini, yum) or just the fact that I won't see them for ages, but regardless I got all teary. Then I got to properly say goodbye to the UK coz we got one final look at the utter incompetence of First Great Western, when they decided to reroute my train to Chippenham via Bradford-on-Avon xD Yay thank god I don't have to go on that train for a year :P

Need to decide whether to take my bear... you may laugh, but I love my bear. Probably shouldn't take him then, he might get lost or damaged... Still have to pack jewellery as well, so prob no room for him. Also need to print off a few more maps and stuff.

Preparations wise, got a few more things sorted over the last few days:
I now have my accommodation contract :D It's awesome :D I love my new flat already and I haven't even gone yet :P This is my room:

I don't think it comes with the bedspread, but it does come with the sofa and AIRCON THANK THE LORD.

There are two bathrooms, a living room which looks large, 4 other bedrooms and a kitchen. Looks snazzy :D I kinda can't wait to move in now.

Although I get to live in a 5 star hotel in the meantime...

On the aeroplane, we've got our seats sorted, sitting by Peter and Laura to Dubai, and then by them and Camilla, with Anna, Juni and Jamie behind us. Should be fun :D

Also got Sunday plans sorted, going to Nagoya to meet up with Chika, Miki, hopefully Mari and Marie. Getting the train from Shin-Osaka to there, and then I'm going on to Utsunomiya alone. Hopefully gonna go to Tokyo for a day, maybe meet up with Miles or Katy :D

... It's actually happening now. AGH.

Oh, and this is a video tour of my flat. Enjoy :P
