Packing

So packing for 4 months and several seasons is a daunting task. To put my normal packing in to perspective lets just say I normally take two fully packed to the max suitcases on a two week cruise. I had no clue how I was suppose to fit four months worth of clothes in the same bags. Three hours later, that included several re-packing's and a much needed snack break, I managed to cram about a quarter of my wardrobe and necessities, like my JIF peanut butter (which is a must bring since you can't find it anywhere) in to two ginormous bags. I also went out and bought the biggest purse I could find, so lets hope Logan security doesn't notice my three carry on bags.

I am so excited for Florence. I've wanted to study abroad since I was in elementary school, when I was first bit by the travel bug. After two failed attempts it's finally here! This is an experience of a life time so I'm going to live it up by visiting as many countries as possible and learning as much Italian as I can. Saci should be a very interesting experience seeing as it's an art school and I can't even draw a circle. But, maybe i'll find a hidden talent, or at least a new place to live and work for a while.

Well that's all for now, enjoy the good life while you can ;)
