I have started packing!
I know it is a little early and my last post reeked of procrastination but I thought getting an early start would be a good idea. Since I will be gone for the full year, I need to pack for the cold months as well as the warm. I started my packing with winter items and have definitely been successful so far. Usually I throw my items into my duffle bag in a haphazardly frenzy. This time around, I am attempting a 180 so that when I arrive, I will be one happy camper with all of my nicely folded clothes. Another thing I have been doing is slowly accumulating new items that are necessary (in my opinion) for my trip. A while ago I decided to invest in a new camera so that I wouldn't have to resort to posting crappy iphone pictures. I settled on a Nikon COOLPIX P530. It arrived just in time to go wedding dress shopping with my friend for her upcoming wedding next July. Btw I am her maid of honor (so exciting!)! I really like the camera so far but have yet to go through all the settings and read the manual. Hopefully I get that done before I leave, otherwise I suppose I can do it on the first leg of the trip -- the ten hour flight to Germany. I also invested in a fanny pack. I know many of you out there are cringing as you read this but mark my words, the ever-so nerdy accessory will definitely be making a comeback soon! Also I hate lugging bags or purses on my shoulder. That is about it for now. I'm going to try to post some photos soon from my new camera. Stay tuned!
