*Sighs* After sitting down and taking a realistic look at my finances, I've had to come to the conclusion that I just simply can't afford to go to FC this year. Our dollar now only being worth 60% of what it was 3 weeks ago, means I'm going to need an extra 2.5-3k on-top of what I was originally planning, and there's no way I'm going to be able to have that in time. As much as I'd love to go, I don't want to be in debt after my first venture overseas...

It's so frustrating, considering that this was looking very possible 3 months ago when I started putting this together, and now it's all just fallen to shit...*sighs* I am going to book my room at the Double Tree for FC 2010 though, so that will give me something to look forward to.

I'm looking at other options for a trip though, maybe somewhere in Asia. I need some time off, to get away from all this bullshit.

And everything was just starting to go so well...

Anywho, that's all for now. I guess I just needed to vent a little.

Take care
