Packing is wack.

First of all, welcome to my blizzity-blog. If you're reading this, you probably know me and know that I am rather candid. This is the way I write and I hope you can get used to it. I decided to start this blizzog for all of my adoring fans and friends (aka my mother and father), so they can keep up with my life as I spend this semester across the pond in London. It's also for me. I want to remember this semester (except for when I'm totally wasted and fucked up COLLEGE RULEZZZ...kidding) and everything I learn, and while I have a special Moleskine to draw and write in, this allows me to document my semester with pictures and all that fancy shit. I'm already struggling to keep one of my New Year's resolutions, which was to swear less. Woopsies.

Second of all, packing blows. Like, seriously sucks. I have made (and revised...over and over) a list of all the clothing I want to bring. Four months is a weird amount of time to be gone. I wanted to make sure to have all the bases covered as far as clothes/shoes. I'm obsessed with street style in London - I'm going to have a ball people-watching. I started really packing today, and I've already cheated on my list several times. Oops. We're going to couple's therapy soon.


This is what my room looks like at the moment.

I am excited and nervous for this upcoming semester. I've never been to Europe before, just listened to the band. I'm a nerd when it comes to art and history so I'm definitely looking forward to traveling. I'm lucky to be traveling with some of my best friends, and can't wait to experience Europe with them. Don't worry, there will be lots of pictures. I am going to miss my family, and some amazing people at school, which is the shitty part. But 4 months will fly, so I'm going to make the most of it.

Well, thanks for reading (mom and dad). Next time I write will most likely be from the UK! Crazy.
