I change from minute to minute.
Its is literally ALL i can think about as well.

I've been at work since 8am and done absolutely nothing, my day has involved checking tram routes to and from CBD from our hotel, working out where i can pick up my tickets, getting all my itnierary ready. (As you can see i'm pretty anal).....
 
I was relaxed but suddenly things have changed.

My nerves are starting to build already. I hate to think what I'll be like by Thursday/Friday

All my emotions have been exhausted just getting to this point. Now that we are in - I am a Zombie to the Purple!

I've gone from being absolutely elated on Saturday night at the game to being in a state of depression from not getting tickets in the ballot, hopefully I can scab a couple of tickets from somewhere.

It's funny I wasn't overly confident against the Swans I actually feel more confident of Freo winning the GF against the Hawks.
 
I was bloody angry and manic this morning but now I'm in a state of calm as I've possibly managed to scab a ticket off someone. All I have to do now is pick it up on Wednesday and I'll be a very content person :D
 
I've got nothing lined up after Thursday afternoon. Still have an off chance of getting tickets, but if not I'll be completely useless towards the end of the week anyway.
 
Had an exam today.. throughout the whole thing thoughts like "Holy shit freo are playing in the grand final on Saturday!" kept flying through my head in spite of my best efforts to concentrate on biology
 
Its pretty much all I think about 24/7.. feel like im on the match committee trying to plan the hawks downfall... its such a high risk / high reward time to be a supporter.

It'll either be the greatest 3 hours of my life or afterwards Ill be curled up in an emotional ball somewhere, refusing to talk to anyone

Hope the exam went well!
 
I am now the most deflated and heartbroken individual.

I had an unbelievable chance of getting a ticket to the game and now because the ticket was in the AFL Members area (AFL Members get membership card and photo ID checked to prove that the card is theirs), I now can't go as I risk spending a lot of money for nothing.

So ****ing angry right now :mad:
 
5 nights = 2.5 sleeps

Hehe I had my first sleep since Thursday night last night - 3 days without being able to sleep I was so anxious, and then excited. I'm calm at the moment, but I watched the replay for the 3rd time last night and teared up. I'm going to lose my shit during the game - just know it. If we win - look for the blubbering guy cradling a bottle on the cappuccino strip.
 
Whilst its our first ever GF I am totally relaxed - enjoying GF week with Freo in with a huge shot at the flag :D . Partly its due to us being rated the underdogs by most but them still acknowledging us a real threat - always more comfortable heading into a game that way.

Confident that Hawks will be overconfident again, and our form these finals compared to Hawks is looking good - we WILL bring the intensity stepped up yet again for the GF - just need it from the first bounce and not to go missing for any time. But its the GF - our first - our players are going to deliver their best :D
 
Yep I'm pretty relaxed for now. Have our tickets and everything else sorted and have plenty to keep me busy until we fly out Friday, which won't stop me spending way too much time here and watching footy shows. I'll be stressed Friday only until we're physically sitting on the plane and of course I'll be ridiculously amped walking into the MCG Saturday but for now I'm just confident that the boys are about to do us proud on Saturday and unlike last week I'm fine with waiting for that to happen.

Since Saturday's win I've been frustrated and depressed I can't fly over...

When I'm nervous I take it out on people and end up feeling guilty and crying for being a bitch.

Yeah, this week is going to be great...

Was initially depressed about missing out on the ballot.

Cancelled all flights and accom now, and am now EXCITED FOR SATURDAY!

Get into Freo EARLY and find a pub to watch it at! Atmosphere in Fremantle during the GF going to be great. probably not as good as at the 'G' but still, going to be incredible atmosphere there!

CANT WAIT! GO THE DOCKERS!
