trop bientot!

Am waiting for Emma to call back so thought I'd jump on the computer. Am all packed, but with a little wee problem!! My luggage weighs about 23 kg!! NOOOOOOOO!! so i was trying to call Monique to see if she had any space, but there was no answer. My carry-on backpack is full and weighs over 9 kg and I am trying to work out how i can disguise my handbag and another bag as one bag! It might work?? How long does it take Emma to have a shower (thats where she was when I rang!) I really don't want to leave!!! But i can sleep for ages on the plane - YAY - I am a little tired, woke up at 6 to write thankyou cards, organise presents and pack... Apparently in France they are really strict with the weight thing - I could prob get away with it in Melbourne...

Speaking of weight - you wont believe how much i weigh!! (Weighing yourself is neccessary for weighing your bag, i am not a weigh-yourself freak!) 56 kilos!! OMG!! Since generally I vary between 49 and 51 kilos - this means I have put on 5 or 6 kilos! scary stuff! This means that I will probably hve to do a tiny bit of exercise when I get home - sigh! Or I suppose it might drop off when I stop eating pastries??

La La La. Want to go out for a walk but waiting for Emma to ring... We are leaving for the airport at about 7, and so hopefully everyone else has the same idea about being uber early, so we can all check in together, sit together, sort out luggage without stress, that type of thing! Somehow we also want to try and explain that we want to sit next to Jacques on the plane, he is meeting us at Paris. Not sure how successful that will be, but we will try!!

Ok, bored now and Emma still hasn't called. Rrrrr. See you all after a very long flight!

lol, or as my dad (i.e. NOT me) said, you'll have so much to talk about when you get back you'll just be like "blah blah blah (insert my dad's imitation of simone talking really fast here lol)" and forget to eat and then lose all the weight you put on!! :p

can't wait to see you guys!!!
