Quite Random

Tick tock

College work is all done now, at least until next year. I managed to get my final assessment posted off in time, after staying awake until 5am last Sunday night. While the topic of the assignment was recycling as part of the waste management hierarchy, I think I may have ended up writing about the best way to get a tutu on a pink elephant, but maybe they’ll give me marks for thinking outside the box. Going to work on two hours sleep proved to be an interesting experience – it felt just like normal, except I couldn’t walk in a straight line and my brain arrived in rooms two minutes after my body.

Now the course is done, I have two weeks left at work and it’s time to brain dump and tidy things up. I must empty my drawers, clear my inbox of the seventy things I procrastinated recently, write some documents, and work out where to go for my leaving drinks.

Things I should be worrying about now: sorting out my accounts, finding somewhere to store my stuff while I’m away, and checking my vaccinations. What am I worrying about instead? What to call the blog for the trip. Trivialities rock. Possibilities:

• Apocalypse Cow
• Carry on up the Mekong
• Barang, Barang, Who’s There?
• O Brother, Khmer Art Thou?
