Booked It!

Phew!

Well, I went into STA today and booked my tickets =)

I think the excitement is slowly building rather than being a big rush. I think it's probably the fact that I have a helluva lot of planning left to do that's keeping a lid on things. Still, I'm very glad that it's booked now.

One important bit was getting the extra flights from KL to Sydney for Christmas and New Year. Due to the fact that I was needed at work until the end of September I was gonna miss the celebrations in Oz. However, with this extra trip I'll get to do it and still not have to rush Malaysia. The only problem remaining is getting the accommodation sorted out. It's still three months away but I'm getting the feeling that everywhere is already booked up =(

A sad thing about the way things are going is that I won't have time to visit either my friend Michael in Cambridge or my friends Jonathan and Deborah in Swindon before I go. I am really disappointed about this as they are all great friends and I haven't taken the opportunity to see them now that they have moved away. Yeah, things haven't been easy here but now that I realise that I won't get a chance for another year it is a bit of a bummer. Still, it's not all bad, they deserve postcards =)

So, the next big things to get done are the visas for Oz and India, vaccinations and credit card. Oh, and plan, plan, plan.

Wish me luck!
