not long now

I will try and update this blog more frequently when i am away, i just feel a lil silly when i'm still in southampton, however things have happened which i think merits a post! having not had a hostel available in paris for the last week, i checked hostelworld (my new best friend to be) and up popped a very nice one near my train station, so that is all booked and a massive weight off me shoulders, as i was shitting meself that i'd arrive in paris and have to stay is some shit b&b or guesthouse with businessmen miles away from everything. I've also got me travel insurance sorted, paid for my trip from st petersburg to beijing, have only one more day left at work, where yday i got some amazing presents which i just love. Me dad bought me my bag, which i am very fond of, he is called Michelle, as it makes me look like a turtle, ( i chose turtle over toitoise as turtle's are cooler as they have that whole ninja stigma attached to them). i had me leaving do which was lovely, had a great time chatting away and was great to see everyone and i think everyone had a lovely time. i had my last injections yday which is great. i've got a busy 6 days before i leave on thursday, playing at st mary's tomorrow, out for meals monday tuesday and wed, which will be cracking. So everything is coming into place quite nicely, really looking forward to setting off and starting it, as it has been ages in the planning. it's getting quite real now. yay x
