Pre-Departure

The struggle is not over yet after receiving the confirmation from my volunteer adviser. There are heaps of precondition documents that i have to submit before the actual departure in which i need to allocate a lot of time. I have to smart enough dividing myself between my current project and per-departure preparation. I have to somehow able to arrange a document from the police in between my meetings. I have to call many authorized translator to translate my documents into English in just a day as i need them immediately.   I have to spend a day to arrange medical certificate from the hospital. Speaking of which, the nurse from the hospital gave me an ugly big bruise in my left arm after taking 3 tubes of blood for sampling, grrrhhh...

the best advise someone gave me is to take it one day at a time, i am not going to complain. although i have to argue with my boss about my leaving, to bare moral pressure of abandoning the project that i started, to leave people that i love, to pack 2 years of my life in Bali, to sell what i can sell, send home what i can send, and bring along what i really need. This 6 weeks will be a headache, but i will keep smiling.

Pre-departure can be this tiring, but i need to use the most of these remaining 6 weeks to contemplate my 2 years living here, finished what i can finish at work, have a good time and say bye to my amazing friends.
