Set in Plastic

Well, it's set. I am most definitely going to both Europe and New Zealand next year... unless my credit company recalls my trips.

Yup, today I booked my flights to London (April 4-June 20, I'll be back for a jet-lagged celebration of my 25th birthday), and to New Zealand (January). My credit card is weeping, but I am so excited, I just don't care!

I also have an almost certain job for next year, working for the Victorian Institute of Technology. I feel a little bad, cos it's a permanent role... and I'll have to quit to go to Europe... but it's Europe! And it's a job, which I need. Have another temp job lined up for a few weeks in December, so I may not have to claim myself completely destitute just yet. Oh the irony of having no money, and two overseas flights booked and paid for.

I still haven't worked out the best Eurail pass to get yet... it's SO confusing!
