She got up from bed, still floating in the nothing-to-worry-about atmosphere. The room is in a mess, she still can't believe her day starts at 5pm. Hoodie on the bed, extra pillow on the chair, bags and boxes around the room, cardiac notes still lying beside the laptop, rubbish bin full with chewing gum wrappers, water is dripping from the kitchen tap, the deflating balloons are covered with dust and the sky is turning dark.

Finally decided to start packing. Didn't join the others for dota. She took out the drawer fulled of envelops, checking on them one by one. Meteor's letters into the bin liner, BOI too. Found the information pack she got during orientation week. Orientation week, when everyone was wearing their own protection mask, wanting to know more about others. What to throw and what to keep. Always making her headache when it's time to deal with. The wall becoming empty again. Akon's sorry blame it on me is playing over and over again from the laptop, cards and two thousand eight calender had been kept in a big envelop, packing and packing, she realise that she really does keep a lot of things. The mentos ah ren, duo-yan and da jie got for her when she departured from KL, the aikido club leaflet from fresher's week, koruna coins, all the previous flight details, bn'b she got from ms carl lusby before she came, cal work and lecture notes she saved in her thumbdrive and rainbow, chocolate wrappers she used as bookmarks, all the random receipts and papers used to do revision, broken buttons, ski pass, Club twenty one's entrance receipt, random doodles during pph lectures, all the tesco delivery and shopping lists, vodafone, o2, meteor and 3 pamphlets, letters that never did send out, expired coupon, cardiff admin contact details and the other info booklets, present wrappers, notes from friends written in the library and lecture hall, the broken file and the air coach ticket she got when picking up her dad.

She has finally satisfied with the packing. Staring at aoife's empty room, imagining her emptying room, deleting all the past, bringing away the sorries and thank you-s of Merville, UCD and Dublin and ignoring the paint that came off when she is taking off the papers she sticked on the wall.
