Excess Baggage

Picture Credit : Invisibletape

Well it seems like sharing isn't all that bad. I just shared the news about me moving to Sydney yesterday and my papers from the institute came through today. But nothing comes through easily and when it does we usually don't value it all that much : easy come, easy go!!! I have had first hand experience with the same. I have never valued relationships that 'just happened' without having to try very hard and no surprise they fell through very easily too. It's only when you have strive to get something that you tend to 'value' it for longer!! That seems to be the case with me anyways.
I was trying to get tickets for Singapore Airlines so that I could fly the A380 from Singapore to Sydney but all flights are booked for January and I will watch for a day or two and then may have to look for another airlines. The work is just started : there is the accommodation to look for and bank stuff to arrange and I have to try to get all my clothes, shoes and stuff into my bags and try not to cross the baggage allowance!! I am glad that students get 48 kgs because otherwise with the meager 20 kgs I would have been able to only get my shoes across to Oz!! I hope that only baggage I get along with me are the clothes and shoes everything else I'd want to throw into the ocean so that I could start life afresh minus all the conditioning from the past!!
There is a lot of things that still need to fall in place and I have my fingers crossed and now that I have shared it with you all I am sure your best wishes are going to expedite things. Thanks dear readers!!!!
