packing.

Have recently discovered that packing for 3.5 months is nearly impossible - what with my gross amount of clothing and just general lack of decision making skills (I've never worn this before...but I miiight wear it in Europe....). Slightly worried about my inability to lounge around in my pajamas at all hours of the day - but I suppose that I'll have to learn how to eventually, seeing as how I'll be entering the real world as a real adult in T-minus 1.5 years. And apparently adults don't wear their pajamas everywhere. Damn you Italians and your impeccable style.

This should get interesting.

29 days until lift-off :)
