For many students move out day is one of the best and worst days of the year. The best because, um hey, IT'S SUMMER. The worst because it's time to leave all the wonderful, or not so wonderful, people you have been living with. People you now consider your closest friends and family. One by one you pack your belongings into bags and boxes, say your goodbyes and go your separate ways. And packing is one of the most satisfying feelings....when you finish. Below are some of the thoughts I had while getting ready to finish my freshman year of college.
1. Alright let's do this.
Me @ packing
2. Time to pack my life into inconspicuous brown boxes.
3. Wow, I have a lot of stuff.
4. How did I even collect this much?
5. Heaviest things on the bottom.
6. It's like playing Tetris, but with important things.
7. I hope no one steals this box.
8. Maybe I shouldn't ship my expensive things.
9. Oh well.
10. Still not going to pay for shipping insurance.
11. If I shove clothes between things, it's like killing two birds with one stone.
12. But what if I want to wear that before I leave?
13. I know I won't actually wear it before leaving.
14. But still...
15. WHERE DID I GET ALL THIS STUFF??
16. I definitely didn't bring all of this with me.
17. Wait.
18. Yeah, no, I didn't bring this much.
19. Oh, shiny.
20. If I turn it this way maybe it will fit better.
21. This doesn't fit at all.
22. Where did I put the tape?
23. Wow, one box down.
24. Go me.
25. I am the packing queen.
26. How do I STILL HAVE SO MUCH LEFT?
27. What is this sorcery??
28. I hate this.
29. I'll just lay on this pile of clothes I need to pack.
30. This is surprisingly comfortable.
31. Never getting up.

32. I need music.
33. This would be so much more enjoyable with music.
34. I don't need this anymore.
35. Or this.
36. I should just start a bag.
37. How can one pack for hours and still have so much left.
38. Let's put everything left to pack in one area.
39. Wow, I have so much room.
40. It's so empty.
41. Hey.
42. Is that...?
43. Oh my god.
44. I've been looking for this forever.
45. It's been right here this whole time?
46. I should have listened to my parents about organizing.
47. Seriously, what the heck.
48. Who needs packing?
49. Not me.
50. I can finish tomorrow.
51. I'm just gonna sit here, and fiddle with this long lost thing forever.
