Last few moments having my own space in New Zealand

Okay, my life is legitimately packed up now. In my room left I have: my packed backpack and smaller rolling luggage for Australia, the shoes I'm going to wear on the plane, my laptop, a couple books I think I might bring with to Aussie, my keys I have to hand in soon, and the cup of tea I'm drinking. The rest of everything I'm leaving here I've put in my flatmate's room already. I cleaned my flat, vacuumed my room, cleaned out my cupboard and space in the fridge.

I LEAVE FOR AUSTRALIA IN 7 HOURS. I think I'm checking out of my flat in like.. an hour and a half? I think. I can't remember what time I told them. I'm ready regardless, just going to fiddle around on the internet until I check out I suppose.

For y'all's information, I'm flying into Cairns tonight, will be there for 3 days, fly to Sydney for 3 days, fly to Melbourne for 3 days, fly back to Auckland for a day, then fly home on the 13th!

Since this might be the last numbered count, here are 11 things about me:
  1. This summer, I'll be working at Cold Stone and at the Fair.. again.
  2. I also just signed up to volunteer for the Fringe Festival again, which is exciting because it's one night and I really enjoyed volunteering last year. The venue I'm volunteering at (I'm only signed up for 3 shifts right now since I have no idea how busy I'll be) is Lyn-Lake, so hooray! I'll be in Uptown, at a theater I've never been to before. I'm excited.
  3. I hope I have less than 10kgs packed for Australia. If not.. I don't know what I'll unpack to get rid of at the airport. Hmm. I legit am only bring 4 shirts, one pair of pants, two pairs of shoes, my fleece zip-up, a long sleeved shirt, a tank top, leggings, a swim suit, a towel (to leave in Aussie when I'm done), toiletries, a dress (just in case), a light coat, a scarf.. and I'm bringing a hat and gloves JUST in case. Plus my journal, basic things like my wallet, camera, phone, and iPod, and a couple books for nighttime. That list makes it seem like a lot, and even so I'm probably overpacking, but it's really not that much.
  4. I hope when I get home I can figure out a way to get the "control" key back on my keyboard.
  5. I like making lists.
  6. I can't wait for next semester.
  7. I hate money, yet it's always on my mind.
  8. They totally eliminated the wrong people on SYTYCD last night.
  9. It is impossible to do a Kiwi accent if you are American. Legitimately. I think I can say my name in a Kiwi accent but that's about it. It's a bummer because I was hoping I'd come home with an accent...
  10. Favorite TV shows: Friends, Veronica Mars, Dexter, SYTYCD, Grey's Anatomy (but only the older episodes)... and not necessarily in that order
  11. I can't believe in 11 days I will be boarding the plane to come home! In 11 days exactly I'll be chilling in the airport!

Love love love everyone. I'll talk to you after Aussie :)
