The Countdown

Its Tuesday. I have 4 days left at SVA, and about 100 days of work that needs to be done. Luckily they hired a replacement for me, who started one week ago today. He's good, he knows his shit, but it's made my work load go up about 10 fold. It's kinda ironic how that happens - a new hire is supposed to take work off your back, and instead puts more on your plate.

The freaking out began today. I had a dentist appointment, after which I realized "I have 4 days left of work." Fuck. I have a TON left to do before I can leave SVA, and even MORE before I can leave for New Zealand. I have to find a job, find an apartment, find a car, find find find FIND EVERYTHING! The freaking out is getting very intense. I need to start getting stuff into gear, but there's not much I can do. It's like my engine is reved but the race isn't starting for another week or two.

Alrighty, back to searching for a flat.

I'm excited for you. Here are my unsolicited words of wisdom (?)

New Zealand is absolutely incredible so unfreak out. Even if you find find FIND nothing, you'll still be in paradise with a girl who seems to like you.

The last few days of work are very weird - even though I somewhat looked forward to the five minutes I spent cleaning out my cube, it was still pretty nostalgic even after only a year - try to enjoy it.

If your trip to the dentist was anything like mine, you got hosed.

Go Brewers.
