One week to go

It is hard to believe that in one week I will be on a plane to France. My grandparents came down for four days and it was great to see them and I am very sad that I won't be seeing them for a long long time. Today I caught up with Aline, Julia and Adrien which was great and tomorrow I have a dinner with my friends to look forward too. I also brought a new camera:) its red and very very cool.

Packing adventures

I started my packing today, and I know what you are thinking "what a twit she leaves in two weeks, there is plenty of time" but anyone who knows me knows that I do not perform that well under pressure so with the help of my mum we set about the task of sorting out what to take to France with me

23 kgs check in and 7kgs carry one is not a lot so some tough descisions had to be made... like what books to bring



as you can see by the amount of boxes (one bookcase is also yet to be boxed up. I have a lot of books. I managed to narrow it down to three books however:






Harry Potter et le Prisonnier D'Azkaban
Angelique et le Noveau Monde
Christchurch: An enchanted journey through the garden city. ( given to me by my workmate Michelle )

and since I have packed away most of my clothes do not be alarmed if I wear variations of the same outfit. The packing hell adventure is not over. I still need to buy another jacket, gloves and some more leggings and will probably repack again before I go
