Day -14

Right, first post... I have decided, after discussion with my Mum, to settle on the entirely arbitrary date of the 11th of October for my departure. This has upset my little sister, as it is 4 days before her 17th birthday, but I'm sure she'll get over it.

Things to do before departure include...

1. Finalise ticket booking
   
2. Sort out travel insurance
   
3. Go to the doctors for jabs and the like
   
4. Go to the chiropractor again, in preparation for hours on planes in tiny seats (regardless of the airline, the seats always seem to be designed for people 5'8" and under)
   
5. Choose what to take with me, narrowing down my pile of 68 decent T-shirts
   
6. Think about productive things to do in each country
   
7. Pack, and go to London for a week to say goodbye to everyone necessary
   

...and a few other bits and bobs, as well as hundreds of things I'm sure I've forgotten.

Wish me luck. If you want.

1. -edit- Figure out how to change these gay little flowers into numbers. Although this comes pretty far down the list.
