i knew that this would happen. when you pretty much on holidays, you work your schedules based on different important events coming up. my palm has already been decommissioned early as the only 5.30 Sunday’s appointment that has been a constant fixture no longer warrants the use of it to help me remember. the rest is a mixture of last minute appointments, problems, phone calls and frantic emails.
today, things are a bit more settled even though its not really the end. just a quick recap, i have found our new accommodation and is currently waiting for a contract to be signed. the rent is quite on the upside, but u can’t really compare it with melbourne’s rent prices.
i also attended yvette’s farewell party (she’s seconding to Thailand for 3 months) where we also had a little reunion of the lovely berkeley people. yuki was also there and he came down to melbourne for two days where we spent our time visiting the locals. healesville sanctuary and penguin parade were on his agenda and we’re lucky enough to have weather-permitting conditions to visit those two places.
my ferrari was also on strike. i had to send it for repair and it’s another 3 days before a quote is produced for the go-ahead-to-fix-it decision.
in the mean time, i find a bit of solace from a temporary downtime. toll transition was kindly enough to send me the boxes early. in a 36 degrees day like today, even the lowest temperature provided by the aircon doesnt give the slightest incentive in me continuing to pack up my stuff. i know i have to do it now for procrastination will bear a hefty price. but i want an interim stopgap from all the topsy-turvy and helter-skelter of chaotic change, even if it’s only for a few solid hours.
