St. John’s to Toronto<\/strong><\/p>\n

As I write this, I’m on the first of three flights before arriving in Taipei. The Group Study<\/p>\n

Exchange, traveling to the other side of the world… It’s all much more real now. Yeah I know, it’s about time, right?<\/em><\/p>\n

Thank heavens I took yesterday off from work to finalize packing and take care of some last minute things. Even with that bit of extra time, I really needed a lot more.<\/p>\n

I didn’t really sleep <\/em>last night and instead took an hour and a half nap. I’m overtired right now, but am hoping and planning to do the bulk of my sleeping on the flight from Toronto to Tokyo. We leave around 12 pm which is almost a full 12 hour difference with Taiwan. If I can sleep on the front end of that 15 hour flight, I’ll begin the challenge of resetting my biological clock on the right foot. <\/p>\n

But obviously I’m not expecting to sleep for a solid 15 hours. I don’t think I’ve ever slept for that long… Even when I was an infant!<\/p>\n

I’ve taken a quick look through the available movies. I’m thinking it’s been far too long since I watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit. And Amelie is still one of my favourite movies. Haven’t had a chance to see Bad Teacher yet either.<\/p>\n
