I planned to, wanted to, start packing one week in advance, but apparently my plans failed terribly. Which explains why I am still packing now at this unearthly hour! With less than 6hours more to the flight! And guesss what I realised I left out this ginormous pile of donated clothing, which means I have to repack. Oh happiness.

I have this premonition that I'm gonna forget to bring something. I just know it. But what exactly, I have yet to determine. Don't you just hate this feeling.

Anyways the flight later, which departs Singapore at 8.20am, will fly to Bangkok, following a transit to Udon Thani (where in the world is that!). Then somehow or another we will arrive at Nongkhai where we'll be teaching English and interacting with the children in the village. And guess what! I am excited about the trip! :D

It's a good 8days there and the whole group of us, 27 to be exact, will be back in Singapore by the 23rd, around evening if I'm not wrong. What I hope to get out of this trip, I am not too sure yet. I also don't wanna let myself be bound by any expectations because I may be disappointed. Just going there with an open mind, to give whatever I can give to the people there, and who knows, maybe the people there will be teaching me more than we will be doing so.

Anyways, last words to my dearest teammates: please take care of yourself ok train hard don't slack don't get injured get plenty of rest plenty of water and most important of all don't miss me I'll be back before you know it. (:




i haven't forgotten!
