At the moment I'm taking a break from packing. Ugh. At first I didn't mind it so much because it was easier than packing for a vacation. I say this because when you go on vacation, you have to decide what you really need to take and what you can live without. When you're packing for an entire year, that's not the problem because you take just about absolutely everything. The reason I am not so fond of packing now is that my one suitcase is 14 pounds heavier than allowed and there's still room in it. This means that I have to see how much I can cram into my smaller suitcase without having it explode and hope that they both end up under the weight limit. Only problem is, I don't know if I can cram enough stuff into the smaller suitcase in order to make the bigger one lighter. And what on earth do I do when I come home if I've got more stuff than when I left?!!?!

I suppose it's not so bad if one of them is too heavy. As long as it's under 70 pounds then it's only an extra 35$. I can't believe my big suitcase weighs 64 pounds and it's got nothing but clothes in it... I don't even have that many clothes! Sigh.
