Packing Australia, Round 2
Almost three months ago, I was packing up everything that I couldn't bear to part with, but could do without for a couple months (most of my clothes, shoes, books, and sentimental objects like letters and photos). Now it's time for round two, when I'm donating everything to charity except for the bare essentials and valuables... Hopefully it doesn't come up to more than 20 kgs! I'll be traveling with my guitar again... my poor guitar that only gets played when someone who can actually play comes over... but which I love so much that I couldn't bear to actually sell it or give to anyone.
I wish I could carry Sidhaesh like that over to the other side of the world... but I guess he's got his own studies to finish, and isn't as crazy as me when it comes to suddenly uprooting.
It seems my life is a series of sudden departures... I wish I had the time to say goodbye to people properly, but then again, maybe dragging goodbyes on really just ruins the moment? I don't know, I've never been able to follow my plans the way I've wanted to follow them.
So... Five days to go... Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday
The days are so blurred into each other at this stage that I don't know what I'm doing on what day anymore.
Packing is tough, it's final.
