Three Days!

Here is the very exciting finale to my Diploma Dilemma story. The registrar's office never returned my calls so it looks like I will be dragging my really big and really precious diploma to Korea in a cardboard tube in my carry-on. Hope it doesn't get bent or torn. LOLJK it's just going to vaporize when my plane crashes anyway! I think I'm going to Fed-Ex it back home after I'm settled into my apartment in Seoul. That will definitely cost at least $60.

I have already packed 99% of my stuff. Packing all the things you will need for an entire year is REALLY DIFFICULT. Plus I'm only bringing two suitcases (because I am too cheap to pay for extra baggage) and a large carry-on bag and my backpack. One of my suitcases is all clothing, and one of them is medicine, shoes, sweaters, and my winter coat. I still can't find my black leather winter gloves or my black turtleneck which is my favorite shirt of all time, and I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to locate them in the disgusting mess that is currently my bedroom because I picked up a cold from someone (thanks, Derek) and I can barely breathe, much less poke through the various piles of stuff all over my floor and in my closet. Wow, I am going to end this installation of my Great Trans-Continental Journey with another thrilling cliffhanger... will I be able to find my gloves and shirt in time for my flight?! I sure hope so.

!!!UPDATE!!! I found my favorite black turtleneck all the way at the bottom of the most difficult-to-get-to container in the basement. Score. And I found my gloves in the top drawer of my dresser where I now remember purposefully placing them when I moved back from college so I would remember where they were.
