Hey everyone,
The day is upon us - it's my last day in the North!
Tomorrow I'm going to London with my friend Lauren and we're having a day of theatre and drinks (how else would I say farewell to my favourite city in the world?!) before she waves me off at Heathrow on Thursday where I'm flying to Sydney via Hong Kong.
I can't believe I'm finally embarking on my adventures.
Unfortunately I'm too busy to write a large post today as I still have a bit of packing to do, as well as seeing some of my relatives before going out for a goodbye meal with my parents and godfather.
I got a bit weepy earlier today, but now I'm just excited!
It's been a lovely last week seeing everyone - I've had a Nando's date with Chris, a Charles Grey session with Lauren, unscheduled Quayside pub crawl with Sam and Hattie, numerous £2.50 pints with Daniel (who is off on his own adventures to Texas in a few months to visit his American boyfriend, Nik. I'm SO jealous, I've always wanted to go to Austin!), and a meal at Zizzi's with the schoolies.
What started as an innocent trip to the Baltic with Sam ended up with us starting on the Cosmopolitans at 3pm!
Adieu, Newcastle.
I promise to keep you all updated as much as I can.
But for now - adios, lovers!
Muchos love,
MessyCarla.
PS: Italian Catholic Mother has successfully forced a St Christopher pendant around my neck. Whatever keeps her happy!
