Pre-Departure!

Well here I am, it's the night before I jet off on my big adventure!! I can't even believe it's finally here!! I feel like I waited forever for it and now it's FINALLY happening! I'm really excited but it all just feels so surreal, I can't believe I will be flying for the FIRST time ever tomorrow night!! Scary! lol! It'll be lots of fun though, and it'll be nice to see Erin tomorrow afternoon. It's going to be a very long day tomorrow, I have to get up around 7ish I suppose, then take the 9am ferry to the mainland, and then it's off to the airport and we'll get there at about 12pm or so, and then meet with Erin at 2. Then after that we'll check in and then we get to play the waiting game! Our flight leaves at 5:30 and is a 9 hour flight. Now the part that makes this day even longer is that when we get to London...it'll be 10:30 in the morning, meaning that we'll have to stay awake for another whole day! Since I'm told that the best way to fight jet lag is to NOT sleep until you're actually supposed to sleep! Then to top that all off, we'll be on a bus by 6:45 the next morning...sounds like a lot of fun right? Haha, it will be an adventure for sure. I'm just praying that they won't loose my luggage, that would be an awful way to start!

Last night was really fun, we did a bit of a send-off party, starting at Peacock Billiards and that was lots of fun, had some food, played some pool, spilled a pitcher of beer all over a friend of a friend lol. Then after much ado we moseyed on over to Retro Night at Evolution which was an absolute blast!! It was so much fun, I was really pleased with how the night turned out. I did have a whole lot to drink though so I definitely wasn't feeling so hot this morning but it turned out alright, no puking so that was a plus! Haha! Then I spent the day with Yasmin and that was lots of fun, didn't shower until like 3pm LOL!! Yea, all in all it's been a good day, I'm finally all packed up and ready to go so I guess my next entry will be from London...hard to believe!!

Cheers!
