Packing and Cleaning

Well, My room is halfway packed up for the end of the year. I've been packing in an on and off fashion for the last 3 and a bit hours. Progress is being made however, albeit slowly. Anyway, it's terribly boring so i've decided to have a quick check-my-email-and-post-mindless-things-on-blog type break.

A hall of residence, when empty, is a strange place. Kind of surreal. I'm sure I don't remember it being this weird at teh start of the year before all the firsties arrived. I guess I've just become used to the constant noise and being surrounded by people all the time. Home always seems so quiet and depressing in comparison. Especially now when one's life seems to be more in Dunedin than Christchurch. Ahh well, only 9 weeks then I'm back in the middle of it all and probably wondering where my short summer went. Note to self: start learning the Salieri NOW, not the week before you're s'posed to start rehearsals. Oh God.. I just had a thought, that means no drinking during O week. Grrrr.

It's my bday soon. I'm not too worried about this one actually. 20 was traumatic. It took me a good three months or so to deal with the fact that I was no longer a teenager. Turning 21 wasn't so bad though; it was fun in fact. Mind you, the massive 21st probably helped with that, and the fact that I was the centre of attention and received lots of presents. I must admit i like both of those things, but probably enjoy the former more. Haha, is that too terribly atttention seeking?

I have prepared myself for the looming 22 on the horizon though. I have already mentally adjusted my age in fact. Have to keep reminding myself than I am still 21. I expect I shall have another mini-crisis when i hit 25. I shall deal with it by being terribly drunk no doubt.

By the way, if anyone feels like buying me a present I do so desperately want this.

Present? Present?! I figure you'll be too old and your mind will be going by the time you're 22, so I can just tell you I sent you one and you'll believe me. Aren't I evil? I know what you mean about the packing thing. I'm leaving tomorrow and I'm still not finished. Sisky insists I watch Desparate Housewives, and I'm not averse to the idea. One good thing about an empty hall: you can walk around naked:)
