Let's Get It Started!

Yar, I know. I should have blogged when I received the e mail from Kak Azreen. I came close, but I figured I would wait until I got the official letter which I presume would have my name on it.

 I mean, you can never tell. The e mail might have been an accidental move. The system could have a glitch for all I know. I remember the last time I got an e mail from AFS. Couldn't make head or tail from it. So I called them up, blundered my way whilst explaining my confusion and came out with a "My apologies, that e mail was a mistake"

And in case you're wondering, Nope, I haven't obtained the elusive letter.....Yet. I'm waiting... Still waiting... *Hint, hint* Ahem, WAITING!

I can't help it though. I feel I must write something. It's like the Force is pushing me to the computer seat and offering me a gazillion dollars if I type my way through this.

Ergo,

I got the flight information!! Already!!! I actually rung Kak Azreen last week to inquire about the flight details and she said she'd send it next week (this week) and I said Okay! I didn't really want to press for more because;
1. She sounded very tired.
2. I didn't really know what to say. It's so weird that my brain completely leaves my head whenever I call AFS.
3. I more or less knew I'd be leaving on the 24th. It was just a matter of flight time.

The funny thing is, I had been checking my e mail for 8 days straight, almost 24/7 till Thursday, which was when I got the news. And I was actually drowsily checking through my phone that fateful morning when I saw I had a new message.

Jumped out of the bed which such zest and enthusiasm. Like the Boogeyman  just popped in to say hello. Then I signed in via laptop. After making sure all the Germany bound kiddos got the same e mail, I proceeded to google my flight numbers. Flying Emirates, baby!!! Ah, I've always wanted to say that.

It seems that it's going to be a very long journey. Approximately 18 hours in total. I wonder how we're supposed to wear the same T-shirt all the way. We'd be Stinkerds by the time we touch down. But I guess we'll figure something out.

In a completely unparallelled universe, I'm finishing all my Korean dramas! I can't believe all the last episodes coincide with my departure date. Lady Luck must be smiling on me...*touch wood*

Till then mis amigos, (I'm going to be vain here, and assume more that one person is following this blog)
TTFN, Ta Ta For Now!!
