Packing at the last minute was not fun at all! I’d to rush as I slept in (bad idea) and thank God I woke up to the phonecalls and messages that Jane made!
Message:
“Liz, call me. Hee.”
I immediately did while panicking and trying to pack in my zombie mode and she said that she was already in the car with her Dad!
“We’ll be there in five minutes!”
That was not good.. Not good at all! So I took quick bath, grabbed and changed whatever that was near me, packed (again) and grabbed my still wet laundry! And I did all this blind since I took off my contacts as my eyes were red and sore!
So what have I learnt?
Lesson #1: NEVER do anything last minute!
Lesson #2: NEVER pack minutes before!
Lesson #3: NEVER sleep in!
Lesson #4: NEVER change blindly!
Lesson #5: NEVER pack wet lundry!
Lesson #6: NEVER do anything blind!
Oh, and did I tell you? Instead of the chic look I was going for, I was looking rather shabby! Anything matched at all!
1) White Trench Coat (Very cute)
2) Grey Top (Cute)
3) Beiage Pants (Cute)
4) Roxy Thongs (Not so cute)
5) Glasses (Not so cute)
Why didn’t I use any of the four mirorrs I had at home? I really don’t have a clue! And I would say that this was the worse I’ve been in my life! Looking horrid as ever, I won’t be surprised if the people at the airport were scarred!
Lesson #7: NEVER go shabby!
Lesson #8: NEVER go out without looking in the mirror!
I was relief once my two lugagges (and two booasters which weighed 2kgs) were checked in! The group then prayed for Jane and I, then Jared prayed for Audrey and I, then I’d to watch a farewell video that the lovely CG has made me – Thanks guys! No one has ever done that for me!
As it ended, I was a tad teary-eyed already (which I was surprised as I’m kindda last minute with my emotions)! I quickly gave my last goodbye (which hopefully it is not) and hugs (sorry D-Boy if I broke your virginity hug – if there’s such thing) and rushed in the departure hall and ran like mad since I was at a ‘Last Call’ and being in Gate 40 didn’t help at all!
But once all this madness had ended and that my tired ass touched the SIA seats, I started to realise that “This is REALLY happening!” and with that, uncontrollable tears started to form and flood my entire face!
Lesson #9: NEVER cry with sore eyes!
And all this crying did not stop at all! It happened when:
1) The stewardness hand my the hot towels
2) I was reading Audrey’s card
3) I was reading Kevin’s card
4) I was reading Pastor Prince ‘Destined to Reign’ book
5) The plane took off
6) The stewardness hand me the drink and nuts
7) I was watching a movie
8) I was eating lunch (Especially when I was buttering the cracker)
9) I headed to the toilet (Because I’d to calm myself down)
10) I was watching another movie
11) I was looking at the clouds
12) The captain annouced that the plane we’ll land in 20 mintues
13) I was reading more of Pastor Prince ‘Desinted to Reign’ book
14) The plane landed
I would say that I never cried so much in my life! Besides the last time when I had to say goodbye to both of my maids (whom were family to me) as we had to go to Perth.
Looking outside the airport windows and just feeling the nice winter air as I walked out of the plane had me thinking: “I’m finally in Perth!”
Customs weren’t bad at all but collecting my baggage was! I thought since I was among the early birds I would be able to quickly grab my bags and leave. Unfournately, I’d to wait for quite a while for those stupid 2 boosters! As the belt lessened with baggaes, I started to really loose my patience!
“Where the @#$% are those 2 boosters?”
I walked to the start of the belt and as I was nearly about to complain to the lady in charge, I saw them laying on the ground! Some inconsidered idiot much have left in on the ground – What an @#$%^&*@!
Lesson #10: NEVER pack boosters!
Thank God I did not have anything to declare so I was so happy to walk out those doors and into the arms of Mum, Sam and Jeanine who did not recongise my horrid looking self!
You think this is over? Not quite yet, I have to settle one more last thing, my condeded pass for uni! So off to Curtin we went and with numerous amounts of trys and rejections, I totally gave up! This was definitely not helping my emo-self!
The only comfort I was grabbing onto was not only the comfort of my family, but the loving arms of my Daddy God. He was the only one that inspite of all these barriers and humps, was my strong tower!
With the 6 months that the CG has gave me, I would wear it and keep it inside my heart! All the memories, good times, drama, laughter, joy, worship, sharing, cares, precious moments and fellowsheeping!
