Finally

after switching my flight 90000 times (not really 3 times) and being more than 4 hours delayed, and being switched from Washington to San Fran to Denver finally back to San Fran I have arrived safely with my baggage!

finaly there...well the airport at least

After a grueling eight hour day of packing I somehow managed to fit my life away into two rather small bags weighing less than fifty pounds. While my pure genius might surprise you- don't be fooled, when originally packed each weighed about 65-70 pounds and I had to get them down to 50. So there went another 30 lbs of my life0 meaning I had to leave behind so many things!

Anyway I am now at the airport waiting to go to Scotland with a layover in Washington DC for two hours then in London Heathrow for two hours. I promise my posts will get more interesting when I actually start writing about my adventures!

packin' up

I leave in exactly 2 days at 8:05 am and have yet to start packing. Considering how much stuff i have to go through this seems like a daunting task.
But no worries it'll get done- right? Its actually scary when i think of how i have to fit the next 6 monthes of my life into two small suitecases. As i go through all my clothes i have a general rule. If its not long sleeved and guarenteed to keep me warm i'm tossing it!

O well- better get going. I'm not too worried. For all you who don't already know. My Christmas gift to my mom was a trip out to see me in Germany in March so whatever i forget i'll just have to rely on her to bring me!
