TTFN....

I understand about indecision, but I don't care if I get behind. People living in competition, all I want is to have my peace of mind. - Boston, Peace Of Mind

Hey everyone,
Off to Queensland in a bit. Writing this before I pack my lappy off. I know it's just for a week, but it's amazing how your mind associates an act with a feeling. In a sentence, packing makes me sad. So many associations...associations of leaving behind used-to-be loved ones, current loved ones- family, close friends, dogs, home... association of moving on, starting a new chapter, leaving behind lives. The act of packing evokes this for me. It doesn't matter that I'm only going away for a week to another 'section' of Australia, the doing rules the mind. If you get what I mean. Almost like how my dog Pluto whines everytime I bring out my big suitcase. Really. (Also it doesn't help that I'm listening to 'Classic Love-Songs' on WSFM!!)
Well wish me luck. I kinda need it. Those still in Oz, call me!! Last I checked, Brisbane is still in Australia. Which means my phone will still be working if..... *gasp* Charger!! (Lin runs off to pack charger in bag). *phew*.... The wonders of blogging.
Okay... Check on how I'm doing if u're bored. Results will be updated daily on this

And cheer us on! UNSW Ladies lost the title last year, and our first seed is in China training for the Olympics so we're not in the best of form, but we're keeping our fingers crossed.
Adios amigos, if no internet at hotel, it'll probably be quiet here for the next week. But feel free to comment/email and i'll get back to u when I get back to you. :)

Lin! (i'm trying to make up for my lack of noise here)

yeah, i know that feeling of packing all too well...that sense of condensing ur life into a single suitcase, maximum weight 32kg (tho i'm frequently overweight - does that say something about my life?!)...the finality of closing that front door for the last time for a couple of days, weeks, months...and then the terrifying ride to the airport, constantly thinking "have i forgotten something? i'm sure i've forgotten something. or have i forgotten to forget something?"

"the shortest distance between two points is under construction"(-Noelie Alito)

hmmmm....

on a happier note, good luck for ur tournament, watch ur back(both ways!), and enjoy sunny Qld!

ps.last time i checked, perth was still part of Australia too (although debatable to some....ahem...faz!!!)
