The Thirty-Ninth: Day by Day

It's creeping slowly towards the day that I lift off and enter surreality. Only 4 days now before I'll be in London town, prancing around the streets with my best friend, shopping and eating everything in sight. Maybe not everything: I don't like salmon.

I feel under-prepared. I randomly woke at 6:45am this morning and all I could think about was travel cards and clothes I should take. I almost got out of bed and started packing (yes, I haven't started packing yet, at all). Instead, I quieted my mind and slept for another 3 hours before rising. However, one of the first things I DID do was call a 1800 number to unlock my iPhone for international use. After being redirected a few times, I found out from the lovely Indian man that the iPhone department is shut today because it's a holiday?!

NO IT'S NOT. IT'S JUST MONDAY.

Anyway, they're calling me back tomorrow. Ugh seriously, make it easy already! My favourite part was when I tried to tell him that it'd be too early to call me at 9am EST because I'm in the west, so I asked him whereabouts in Australia he was calling from. His answer? "Actually ma'am I am currently overseas."

Thankyou Ashleigh, for receiving the most obvious answer to the dumbest question. Of course an Australian telephone company wouldn't have their customer service offices in Australia. Silly girl.

Today, I will be productive. I'm going to throw my entire life into the washing machine and clean it so I have something to pack in the next few days. My oh my. I also need to tell my university that HEY, I won't be coming back, and also go and buy a camera charger....and....and memory cards for it. Rightio. Things to do.

I should probably get out of my pyjamas.
