i loathedetestdespise packing. caitlin and jana can vouch for that, because they witnessed my really cool [read: disgustingly peeved] mood the night before i came home for the summer. rather, the wee hours of the morning on the day i returned home for the summer. when i first started packing for the summer. when i realized i couldn't fit all my shit into 2 suitcases. very problematic if you plan to transport said shit via plane.
here is my packing strategy:
1. wait til the last possible millisecond to start packing
2. proceed to overpack to an outrageous extreme [bring things such as your entire cd collection, appropriate clothing for weather ranging from monsoon to hail storm, blocks of one or more: gouda/pepperjack/havarti cheese]
3. upon returning home, never unpack. [example. i've been home from wustl for ten days and here is my room:
uhhh hey jana [neat freak], did you wanna come to new jerz and uhhh how do i put this clean my room?
blahblahblah well have a good weekend please everyone. i will be in the poconos with some family [assuming i start packing at some point.] miss you wustl dudes.
