Holiday Timetable
I'm going on my Melbourne on Sunday afternoon, but seriously I can't wait. I've been counting down the days for two weeks, but it always feels too long to wait. This also happens to be my last week of school before break, so I guess everyone's feeling the same. Here's my hectic schedule:
27/9 Saturday: Pack my suitcase, maybe go visit my friends for the last time before I leave, do a bit of playing for fun, double check everything for the trip.
28/9 Sunday: Visit my badminton training to pick up my uniform, say goodbye to everyone, check everything again, at 3:25pm board plane to Melbourne, arrive at 8:50pm, get to the apartments, unload luggage, sleep.
29/9 Monday: Wake early, light training practice, last minute strategy plans, drive around the city.
30/9 Tues: First day of official tournament, play team events.
1/10 Weds: Team events, ending presentations.
2/10 Thurs: First day of Individuals.
3/10 Friday: Second day of Individuals.
4/10 Saturday: Depending on how well I go in the Individuals I get a half day, pack everything, leave Melbourne, arrive back 11:00pm approx, sleep.
5/10 Sunday: recovery sleep.
6/10 Monday: First day of Higgs state tournament.
7/10 Tuesday: Team events, presentation.
8/10 Wednesday: Individuals.
9/10 Thursday: Individuals, ending presentations.
10/10 Friday: recovery sleep.
11/10 Saturday: holidays!
12/10 Sunday: holidays!
13/10 Monday: SCHOOL AGAIN.
Oh really it's not fair how my break will disappear so quickly... but what can I say? Not everyone gets to go to Melbourne for a national competition. My timing couldn't have been better to fit in the Higgs. Mum says I'm not allowed to try for the Under 17's state team because she thinks I'll get in, and we can't afford another trip to Melbourne. I guess its partly true; this team will have 5 places open instead of only three, and since their are barely any girls playing its fairly easy to be accepted. Oh well.
I guess it'd been even more awesome if I could do the whole process again, but I'll wait until I've gone to make a proper judgment.
