PACKING!!!

Normally I love to pack and I am packed weeks before and living out of my suitcase before I go on the trip but for some reason I could not bring myself to pack until last night after midnight while watching Nastia Luikin get robbed of the gold on the uneven bars. Anyway, I finished packing my "packpack" for Europe and now I just need to pack some things for the east coast that I plan on shipping back home before flying across the pond.

So this is my packpack... its a mountainsmith scarlet and is made out of recycled waterbottles! (fancy!!) It weighs more than a small child and has everything I will need (sort of) for 6 weeks in europe and supplements for my 2 weeks on the east coast. It's actually pretty impressive what I have managed to fit in here. Packing list is as follows:

• 2 long sleeve shirts
• 3 short sleeve shirts
• 3 camis
• 2 pairs of jeans
• casual shorts
• leggings (for wearing underneath jeans when its cold)
• rain coat
• hat/gloves/scarf
• bathing suit
• towels
• hoodie
• 8 pairs socks & underpants (more or less...I had a hard time choosing. haha)
• flip flops
• Toiletry kit including but not limited to: brush, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, showergel, deodorant, laundry soap, face wash, febreeze, toner, makeup, and about a million other products all tiny sized...
  
• sleeping bag
• sleep sheet (for hostel beds)
• waterbottle
• first aid kit
• manicure set
  
• sewing kit
• ductape
• flashlight
• fork/knife/spoon
• maps
• duffel bag (to put the whole thing in for flying)

Something tells me I'm forgetting some of the stuff that's in there but you get the idea...tons of stuff but not really because its for 2 months. I also have a day pack which has my ipod, camera, wallet, etc. I think no matter what I do it will feel like I am forgetting something and since I'm going to be right next to a K-mart when I get to the east coast, I shouldn't worry about it too much. Whatever I'm missing I can buy there.

Ok, well I leave in the morning at 8am for the airport. We're all checked in online and have sort of good places in line for seats on southwest so here's hoping for legroom! 16 more hours! Eek.
