let's get cracking

[fahye]

My farewell barbeque yesterday was lovely -- lots of people, sunny weather, good food provided by my father (including the Best Potato Salad In The World, which was demolished in record time) and I was even given FAREWELL GIFTS which I wasn't expecting. A huge book of Russian verbs, optimistically bestowed in the hope that I will have the time to get off my ass and teach myself Russian (which I still intend to!), a nice bottle of Riesling, Anna Karenina (which I am going to take as my reading-on-the-bus-to-Sydney book) and HUGE AMOUNTS OF BANDOM MUSIC from tammaiya. Which I'm now going to stick in my iTunes and pump up loud as I pack.

That's right, folks: today is the day of Packing. The only things that should remain unpacked after today are my outfits for the next three days, and some toiletries.

And madly determined music or cheerleading-type comments to aid me in this mammoth task would be greatly appreciated :)

Hope you like mango sorbet.

It would be a tragic state of affairs if I didn't!

Your butterflymask is proving problematic :D I don't want to put it in a suitcase; I may just get my parents to bring it up to college and then give it to you later, rather than taking it up myself on Wednesday.

Mango sorbet with vanilla ice-cream was on sale yesterday XD

Meh, whatever works. I think you still have my Alexander Trilogy book as well, though :)

I do! And your Stardust. I'll bring them both :)

GAH IMPORTANT DETAIL FOR NEXT WEEK: My neighbour lives in apartment FOUR not number two as I've been telling you all this time, so make sure you ring the right bell. I've told her you'll be coming after 5pm on Wednesday so she's expecting you; just say you're my friend etc. etc.

...would an apology for getting dates mixed up and thinking that your BBQ thing was on the 22nd for some reason do?

FREYA, I AM SO, SO SORRY! I GOT MIXED UP AND CONFUSED WITH MY OWN FREAKING OUT ABOUT UNI AND OH MY GOD, I AM SO SO SORRY!

I...can't believe I...forgot...I...fail at everything.

I am so, SO sorry!

Honey! Don't stress about it, seriously! :)

[ashen_key]

*flails* But I forgot! I hate forgetting things! Especially people!

I am very sorry. But as I DIDN'T say, I DO wish you all the best in Sydney.

I am so sorry.

I understand completely, I know how stressful it is when you're starting something new (I'm running around a bit like a headless chook myself right now) and sometimes things get lost in the whirlwind.

Thanks :)

[ashen_key]

*wry* Yeah, fair degree of headless chookness. Shops, uni, where am I going, write things down ask time off ANU SO CONFUSING...

and thanks, too.
