I am now committed (or is that should be...)

[selenay]

I have just done the scariest thing ever in my life.

I bought my one way plane ticket to Canada.

9th August. Let the count-down begin.

Just because I'm paranoid, I've sent an email to the Canadian High Commission to verify that they're really really, one hundred percent, completely and totally, utterly sure that I have all the necessary paperwork that I'll need to emigrate to Canada. Because obviously there is a tiny part of me that is still expecting that someone will turn around and tell me that I'm in fact not allowed to do it and will kick me out of the country as soon as I arrive.

I mean, full citizenship, passport, Social Insurance Number and voting record should really be enough, but it never hurts to be over prepared.

It's really going to happen :-)

I'm really happy for you honey *hugsyou* xxxx

Thank you, honey :-)

Hee, go you :-) And now, sit back and prepare to watch the weeks fly in - until you get to the last six ;-)

Heh, I fully anticipate cruising along, thinking everything is going fine and then suddenly reallising "OMG, too close" and panicking like you wouldn't believe. All good fun, though :-)

That's very exciting! My aunt will confirm at the start of February, but it looks like she's going to be here at the start of October. So I'll have to come and visit you either before or after that.

That is very cool :-) You may be able to catch the fall colours best if you come after her visit, but it's so variable that it's impossible to predict! I visited in the second week on October a couple of years ago and the leaves were beautiful. Even if you miss the leaves, I'm looking forward to showing off how beautiful my country is :-)

I'm more concerned about it not being too hot!
