Packing Stinks

I think I am in denial.

I didn't allow myself to even think about packing until a few days ago... anddd I am leaving tomorrow! I think it'll all work out though, I mean last summer I didn't really pack until the night before I left for England :X

In order to prepare myself for the daunting task of packing for a whole semester abroad, I started to read a bunch of blogs (and yes, I did find them all from Pinterest). They all talked about matching the same color palates and finding creative ways to wear a scarf. Each also had handy little pictures of the clothes they "packed" all laid out nice and neat.

Let me tell you, its not as easy as the uncluttered, color coordinated pictures look! I don't know how someone can take 5 shirts and 3 pairs of pants and make about 25 different outfits. I guess I just lack that skill. But after a last minute shopping trip to Watertown I think I finally have everything I need, and then some.

Of course Mickey couldn't resist getting in on all the packing action! He was definitely trying to find some extra space so he could come with me :)

I will say, those space bags did a good job of squishing everything so I had just enough room in my suitcase (thanks again mom!).
