a night before leaving home

holy crap! it has actually come. it has quite happening. i am leaving tommorow morning to start my university life in vancouver. holy crap!

ok, no panic grzesiek, no panic. it's going to be all right. those big iron birds are there to transport you safely and quickly. or shall i say quickly and safely? brrr... anyways, the luggage restrictions piss me off so far. i hope they'll let me take the laptop on board. apart from the small laptop suitcase i have a massive backpack, which certainly exceeds the weight limit. i pray for nice, blond women at the check-in, so i can get my way through (as i always do!) without wasting cash.

everything else is quite ready and more less arranged. i said goodbye to all my friends, grandfathers, grandmothers, great grandmother (well, that was at funeral, unfortunatelly), little sister, father and mother. no pain, really. melancholy (as i expected), though my crave for the unknown still wins. i am looking forward to leaving.

so what is the plan? i shall explain: tommorow, early morning my mum is driving me to the kraków airport and around 11:00 am i am supposed to depart. then i am sleeping over one night at london gatwick airport (ibis hotel - i have already booked a place, trustfully it's not some british sort of shithole for which you pay a lot of pounds). on 24th at 8:00 am i hope to meet daina zvidra (a latvian girl from rcnuwc) in the hall of the south terminal. we pick up the tickets and we check in and then... we fly away. over the ocean. for the very first time.

i will try to report from london gatwick.

goodbye poland.
goodbye cheap beer.
goodbye beautiful women.

i shall be back, though.

soon.
