i'm pretty much done for now actually. i bought the largest box available at the post office, packed in all the clothes that i can ship over for now plus some study material - japanese of course - and other things like earrings and accessories (a reduced collection of course) as well as postcards featuring some aspects of singapore.
the box that i bought isnt the biggest allowed though, which makes me wonder why the post office doesnt sell boxes larger than the one i bought - 60 x 40 x 30cm. the limit is that L + 2H + 2W has to be less than 300cm - mine is only 200cm. i could do with more space! but i resigned myself to the fact that since i have to ship the second batch over, whatever that couldnt go into this box can go into the next. i think i'll buy one of the same size, and just fill up all the extra space - i'm hoping there'll be more than enough space - with balls of newspaper.

i was out with classmates today after commencement, were at wala wala having some drinks when i was not-so-nicely reminded (unintentionally, i grant him that much) that i'll be doing more drinking in japan and am almost certain to get even fatter than i already am. sigh. all the nomikai that could potentially occur.... urgh. there's only so much beer i can stomach at one go! hopefully school teachers dont drink that much..!

oh, and the thing about liquids being shipped? DHL doesnt allow them too. so it means that my 90% full bottle of toner and moisturiser has to sit on SQ with me, which almost makes me wanna cry cos that's A LOT of weight we're talking about. and there's no way i'm gonna leave my clinique skincare behind when that amount of stuff can last me for the next 1.5years or so! :( means i just have to leave some other stuff out.....
