The Kick Off Point

I am anticipating a revolution in my life in few days. It’s why I’m starting this blog. It’s why I am composedly accepting all the displeasures life throws at me. It’s why I am one jumpy soul at the moment. It’s why I’m unconditionally loving my world. It’s also why remembering my passwords has not been any easier. Not so coincidentally, they all have something to do with ships and Japan!

On Monday, I pack myself off to Japan where I’ll be spending 10 days before I go on a ship and sail to Solomon Islands, Fiji, Vanuatu and Brisbane with another 300 boys and girls from countries like: Brazil, Chile, Fiji Islands, Japan, United Mexican States, Micronesia, Oman, Solomon Islands, Sweden, Tanzania and Vanuatu. It's all part of the Ship for World Youth program.

The preparations we, as a delegation, have been taking upon ourselves have been hysterical. We’ve been working on putting our national presentation together, shopping for traditional and formal outfits, shipping cargo, selecting gifts for other delegations, seeking sponsorship, attending cultural and language sessions, thinking of the sort of activities we want to be in charge of on the ship and tens of other things.

I’m yet to pack, so I can only make this a short post.. And to the best of my ability, I’ll blog every time I have access to internet (only I cannot be more excited about having so limited access to telephone lines and internet equipped devices throughout the trip!). Also, given that I'm a photo addict, I’ll be definitely posting lots of pictures so stay tuned.
