the thing is, college kind of IS like a con. a con that you never, ever come home from. and where people shower a lot more often, and sleep in real beds. but overall, the first few weeks of my freshman year felt like an enormous fucking con. seriously. (enjoy it while it lasts.)
also, i just wanted to pass on my packing technique to you. it's a patented method i like to call "throw-everything-in-a-box". all you have to do is put a big box in your room, and every time you see something you know you need to take to school, put it in the box. i know that sounds ridiculously simple, but seriously, it works. i have used this method to pack for school twice now, and i eagerly anticipate this year's round. i'm moving into my first apartment, which means it's going to have to be a really big box.
good technique!bananorama87August 4 2005, 16:46:54 UTC
I'm going to have to do something like that. The problem is that I need to purge the stuff I own as well, which means I need to lots more organizing as well. And Sarah's SO ready to kick me out of the room she could scream. So anything I leave at home has to be carefully packed away. I think I'll go work on that now.
I'm a little scared, but I'm looking forward to this whole college thing. It's going to be a good time. Ack!

Genna is a cool name. Not Jenna, or Gena, but Genna. Rock.
