I have become an A+ packer

I have decided that after packing for everywhere I go for the past three years, I have actually come to enjoy it.  I made a long list today at work of what to bring for the week in Italia.  Then I crossed everything off that I knew I wouldn't need.  I didn't even have to use the list to pack.  It just comes so naturally now.  Maybe after doing these short weekend trips over the past month and taking only what I can carry during the day in my handbag, I have simply learned that I do not need to bring a whole lot to look presentable enough for a few pictures and to not be mistaken as homeless.  

I am all packed with the minimum amount of clothing and shoes as possible.  The weather forecast looks warm and sunny all week, which is great.  It will allow for me to get awesome use out of my dresses.  And dresses take up pretty much no room when packing for an entire outfit.  Lucky for girls, and boys who think it's okay to wear dresses. 

Finally got a chance to paint my nails and toes today.  It has been way too long.  It made me think of my roommates last semester since they always liked to crack jokes about me painting my nails twice a week.  Now that I have no time for that, I really am thankful for taking advantage of a semester of pretty nails.  

Kind of sad that we are leaving London when the weather is beautiful.  It is hot and sunny and not raining, which is unusual. I'm over it though.  

Must write my paper now, that is due next Monday.  How's that for being responsible and managing my time?!
