good luck, bro

it's not even 12 and i'm already falling asleep onto my laptop. this doesn't bear well for the rest of the day, does it?

i was really exhausted last night, so much so that i didn't manage to get any studying done at all.(except for what i managed to read on the bus on the way home, but i nearly dozed off then too. it certainly doesn't help that the chapter i'm reading is really a bunch of technical terms that require phrasing and re-phrasing to make sense of the sentences.)

anyway, i fell asleep in a daze last night, and woke up this morning to a bustle of activity at 6am. bro left this morning for perth for the next phase of his pilot training, and since it's 10 months long this time, the whole family wanted to be there to send him off.

bro and i were close, though probably not as close as my younger sis and him. the three of us used to be really tight until life (and love) made it harder for us to hang out together very often. he's a real gentlemen...smart, articulate and funny, and i really love him for being the man that he is. yes, proud sister here.

good luck, bro. don't come back too early, you hear? we'll see you in december.
