So yesterday when I posted I was totally excited. Today, while still excited, I realized how much I have to do before leaving. After a very unhelpful trip to the bank, and a last minute order of currency that will take longer to arrive becuse of its "exotic" nature, I decided I better get my butt moving and figure out everything I need before I ship off... or fly off.
Packing sucks. Like big time sucks. Ok so I haven't actually started yet, but the act of list making in preperation of packing is just as bad. How am I supposed to pack enough for 5 months into a suitcase that I would normally use for a week... or a busy weekend. I bring 4 pairs of shoes for an overnight trip, and now I have to pack 7 pairs of shoes for 3 different seasons for 5 months. This will be beyond difficult.
PLUS- there are many things I need to do before I leave America for a while. Like have a burger, a garbage plate, go to Wegmans a million times, take a bubble bath. There are probably so many more things that I just cant think of, but I have 9 more days to accomplish them.
Other than the giant list of things to accomplish and the packing thing, I'm quite excited to leave! Bring on the crazyness!!!!

Sam! OMG you have a blog!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever heard of "collegefashion.net"? They have a series on "what do I wear there" with tips on packing for studying abroad. Maybe that'll help!
P.S. I'm pretty freaking excited for you!
