Three weeks left – that’s it! In three weeks today I will be packing up the car, hugging the family and boarding a plane (probably in floods of tears and a slghtly drunken haze due to essential pre-flight gingo tongos) to Singapore. To live. For years!
When I first made the decision to go on my adventure, there was a good four months of build up before Go-Time. There was time to pretend it was never going to happen and that nothing was going to change. There were millions of weekends to think about what I might want to tick off my list and what I might need to do to prepare for the move. Hell, the move wasn’t until “next year” – I had loads of time to play with!
Now though, Christmas is gone, the New Year has been marked, celebrated and has started in full-speed. And so it’s happening. Soon. In three weeks to be precise – the big move is coming up, and it’s coming up fast.
Putting aside the fear and the sadness (which hasn’t gone away, and I am pretty sure it’s not going to for a while), it’s getting incredibly exciting now!
The flat is looking beautiful and shiny, awaiting my arrival, and I’ve even signed a contract (with the company I’ve been having discussions with for the past four months) so hopefully a work visa will be with me just in the nick of time! It’s all happening, and it’s all suddenly very real.
