Forever in Wonderland: Packing (I'm awful at it)

Anyone who’s ever moved knows how difficult it can be.

Should I pack all of my martini glasses or just two?

Do I really need to bring every pair of shoes I own?

Can I fit all of my adorable stuffed animals in my tiny car?

Okay, so maybe that last one only relates to me. Don’t judge. I love stuffed animals.

Anyhow! Packing is hard.

I’ve been doing a lot of organizing/sorting/preparing to pack over the past couple of days in preparation for my move. I’ve moved several times in the last four or five years so you’d think I’d be a pro by now. Not so.

I have a lot of random stuff, but this time around I’m trying to be more concise in what I bring. I don't need all of my books and movies. I don't need every piece of artwork I’ve collected/made over the years. Thankfully I can leave a lot of stuff at my parents house and then, if I realize I need it, they can ship it to me.

But basically, I’m trying to be less high maintenance and really only bring the things that I need.

And things that I need include:

· *My Keurig coffee maker

· *My entire closet (a girl’s gotta look good in Hollywood!)

· *Most of my drink ware collection (champagne glasses/beer glasses/wineglasses/etc.—if I’m going to host fabulous parties I have to have all the appropriate stuff

· *All of my hair products (despite having over 50 bottles of random crap, my hair still never looks the way I want it to)

Okay, you get the idea. I’m not the most low maintenance person in the world. Hell, I’m the girl who showed up to college with a massive U-Haul trailer, ready to move into my tiny dorm room.

BUT (lots of buts in this post haha) this time around I hope to fit everything comfortably in my car and I hope to try and live a little less extravagantly. This being said, it’s not like I’m packing Louis Vuitton shoes or Versace dresses. Ha. I buy my shoes at Justin’s boot outlet and my clothes at Buffalo Exchange y’all. Don’t get it twisted.
