WTF!!!!?!?!?
I only just NOW realized that next weekend will be "in the 20s" of this month!! WHAAAAAAAA?
air
It was like, just yesterday that my departure from the dark continent to go back home was sooooooo far away.
Now it's LITERALLY just over 3 weeks!!!!
Which means so is my final exams!!! And I'm struggling with the noise & air quality survey units like a mofo. This is not good!
And next weekend us & P. and Alan are going hiking in the waterburg next weekend so there is NO way any studying is going to get done for 3 days, there. I think this weekend I need to put myself on lockdown no matter what. After gym tonight, that is. Lockdown. 100%. Study fest. Wheeeeeeeeee!
I'm almost getting nervous about leaving. Lots of worries and emotions and stuff. Coming back in intervals of 4 years or more really puts a lot of stress on you. Pleasing everyone and itemizing every 5-minute interval of your required face time isn't helped by making more time, which we thought it would (i.e. we're coming back for a good chunk of days, this time) it only adds to the mess by meaning you have to schedule MORE obligations. And when it comes right down to it, NO ONE understands. As far as they're concerned you are NOT on your own holiday, you are on A MISSION TO PLEASE. And I don't know if there's enough room in my baggage to pack my crash helmet but it looks like I'm gonna have to find a way.
And there's not much time now to get organized. I have to sort out the whole transition of Eric moving into our place, figure out what days he's going to be away at his family's place in Ftown so that I can organize Sue for those days instead, I need to make the packing list, buy the presents from Africa, I need to FINISH MY WORK at work, hand over, STUDY, finish my final assignment, take the exams, get to South Africa (figure out how to please everybody down there who wants to see us on our way out), strategize the first-in-6-months meeting of Ma & Pa P, and FINALLY, FINALLY get on that plane on the 10th of December.
Our neighbours got burgled in the middle of the day yesterday. Nice. No, which sucks because this crap always goes on around the xmas holidays when all the foreigners are gone to their respective countries, so now I have just one more thing to worry about, only it seems that they've come early this year. Ugh. And on that note I need to work my ass off now. Breaktime's over. And I've got a mountain in front of me, obviously.
