Packing

124 days... I keep running this number through my head over and over again and ask myself how the hell I'm going to pack for 124 days in one suitcase. ONE, SINGLE, 50 pound suitcase. Not only am I limited on space... I'm technically packing for three seasons. Summer, fall, and winter. So I really do need a little bit of everything. Shorts, tank tops, swimsuits... Jeans, T-shirts, and tennis shoes... Cardigans, sweaters, boots, and don't even get me started on a winter coat. So if you can't tell... I am a little stressed.

Since I've given up on any chance of actually packing under 50 pounds I've accepted the fact that I will be paying for exceeding the weight limit. The size of my packing list is already too un believable, and I haven't even started putting things into the suitcase. But since I'm worried about getting as much clothes possible my plan is to leave behind everyday items and then just go buy them there. So shampoo, conditioner, towels... and the many other things I can't even think of right now won't be packed. Sounds like a pretty good idea to me, but there is the even bigger issue that I have absolutely NO idea where I can buy these things in Florence Italy. But the real question is, what is going to be that ONE thing that I forget... I'm hoping it will be as easy for me to use amazon in another country considering I order 4 things from there a week. AND in addition to all of the clothes I also need to pack all of my studio supplies... down side of being an art major. Again just another reason I need amazon so I could ship all of this stuff to my apartment instead of packing it. AND on top of all of that I haven't even considered my text books, so once again I need amazon as my life saver. Well I'm off to actually start packing everyone please wish me luck... I'm gunna need it.
