Moving into College Pt. 2

Alas! Progress! I'm pretty much all packed for daily/general wear. I still need to find winter-suited clothing, considering the fact that I spent most of my life here in the warm comforts of Southern California. After all, I'm pretty sure the jacket I wore when I was four won't fit me anymore. Anyway! I got around to taking some progress pictures of my packing skills for both our benefits:





This is what I started off with. You can see the innards of my closet spilled out with a vengeance. No, it doesn't normally look like that in my closet, this was the result of my pathetic attempt to make an inventory of what I have.





On the right, you can see one of the suitcases that I was trying to fill up. It actually remained pretty empty for the better part of my afternoon. When I first took a shot at packing my clothes in, I had a heart attack because I could barely fit in a few days worth of clothes. Then, I realized something.






I realized that you could pretty much quadruple the amount of clothes you can fit in a suitcase by rolling up each article of clothing. Kind of like a fabric burrito... Regardless, I made sure mention this little piece of valuable information for anyone that bothers to read this.





And that's pretty much it for this post. I know, I didn't get very far in terms of packing and whatnot, but hey, this post was long overdue (I generally post about things a few days to a week after they happen... unless it's very very important or I'm very very bored). Anyway, the next exciting aspect of my life will most likely be college shopping, so keep an eye out for that one.

rolling your clothes, eh? what were you doing before? just the standard folding? hmmm. i'll give the burrito roll a shot when i get back home.

winter wear... the bay is known for its unpredictable weather. guess i should pack some sweaters and scarves. well i'd pack the scarves regardless. i like my scarves :P
