OMG!! I'm leaving tomorrow!

Hi guys, like I told most of you before this is my blog about my adventures in Rome. I haven't posted much lately because I am not there yet, so stay tuned cause once I'm there I will be writing/blogging like every other day or so and posting lots of pics and videos so you can experience Italy with me.

Right now I'm in sorta panic mode, I really need to pack. Now usually I love to pack,(weird right?)I take great pride in my packing abilities. I love packing and repacking, folding and rolling clothes so they fit just right, using my lists to make sure I have just about everything I could possibly need under any circumstance (this is sorta funny cause one of my all time favorite books which I am reading now for the hundredth time is Max Lacado's Traveling Light, but it's not so much about packing though he uses it as a metaphor, but about giving up the burdens we were never meant to carry, ah but I digress..) and usually I will do this weeks in advance of my trips and usually over and over again as it's one of my many oddities that usually makes me happy and brings me comfort. This time is different though. I've never packed for 4 months before. How does one pack for 4 months, 2 seasons, school, exploring museums, country sides and cities and for fancy dinners and hopefully dates with beautiful Italian men? So packing light as suggested by my school and all I've read on different travel sites is proving to be a challenge. My goal is to be packed today and with one large suit case and a carry on, (since I will be alone I need to think about that fact that i need to be able to carry/ handle my luggage by myself). Yeah I know, I know I probably won't get it all in one suitcase but I'm gonna try.

ps
Pray for me that I don't get stuck tomorrow in the airport for like 10 hours as it's supposed to snow UGH!!! If I do get stuck though your gonna get one heck of a started blog for my trip,LOL!!


*Notice I'm still avoiding packing by writing this blog, LOL!
