Almost there . . .

It is one hour before I leave I head to go to the airport. Last night I said farewell to my church and other friends, including Mira. In a way I am sighing inside, in another I am simply staring into space thinking "what on earth"? I am actually going, lik literally physically.
Yes, the penny has finally dropped. Plop.
Ouch.
I know now that reality can actually hurt.
Thanks for all the support and everything. Now I just hope I can fit all my bags together.

See you in Japan!

Hello everyone.
News, news, news, news!
Yes, believe it or not, the day draws closer and I am leaving in three days. I know, time really does fly (on silvery wings) and I am going so very soon. How do I feel, you ask? Well nervous, excited, very apprehensive and unsure what exactly is going to happen. Perhaps everything will go pear shaped, I'll get lost, my flight will be delayed etc, or everything will go perfect. Lets trust in God it'll be the latter eh?
Anyways, I am now meeting with Ms. Fukuhisa at Narita airport, so that makes me happy. I have got a new phone - ooooo - that works in the great JP, and have 2100 yen sitting in my room. Sounds a lot, but its only £180.
My parents recently took me on holiday with my dear sister Carys (I love you!) and that was amazing. Photos can be seen in my most recent album. It was to Cadfael land, somewhere where we have wanted to go for a very long time, but never had the chance. But no, it was great! And the day after I got back was my sponsored silence. Thank you all those who gave me money, and those who offered. But that is not to say I have enough, in fact, if you would like to make a donation to my cause, please mail me in someway, via facebook or other.
So yes, I am going, and am now needing to get down to the bank (the gringo) before it closes. I received a great generous gift from my grandparents, thank you so very much xx
