Eastern Europe here I come!

flying off to eastern europe on my 13D11N tour (by ASA) later this evening. feeling kinda excited about this trip. it would be my first time going for a winter holiday. however, this trip cost a big bomb in my pocket even before I took off!

had to get alot of winter clothes as there aren't many in the house. thankfully for the arrival of uniqlo, i bought most of my winter tops from there. the prices are reasonable and the material is good. had to purchase some stuff for my camera as well, including a new cam bag and a spare cam batt.

feeling a little stressed to get good shots since it's my first time bringing my d90 so far away. hopefully it won't conk out on me due to the low temp. alot of things to take note of when bringing dslr in winter. headache!

prior to the trip, i took a flu jab on the recommendation of the tour guide during the briefing. honestly i felt that it had weakened my immnunity. i caught a flu over the last weekend! wat a bad timing rite?? now it's turning into a cough and i'm afraid i would bother pple on the long flight. think i better go pack some cough mixture along.

yesterday, the tour guide called us to remind us about check in time and the weather. seems like it's rather windy (though no rain no snow so far). the day temp would drop to around 1-2 degrees by the time we get to poland (which is this coming weekend). made a last min decision to rush down to the new uniqlo megastore at 313 somerset in a bid to grab the down feather jacket. thankfully there was still sizes available and in the colour i wanted.

so i'm almost all packed up and ready to go. gonna hv my dinner soon and i'll change into my clothes. hope it's gonna be a nice and smooth sailing trip!
