Packing

Everything is in boxes for the most part that I brought down from school and a few more things I threw in here and there. As sad as it is to pack up all my things, I'm actually really excited; mostly to move into my first apartment in Greeley. This summer in France, I'm going to learn how to cook, FINALLY!!! I've also got a head start on my packing for France. I've got most things in my suit cases, besides the clothes that need to be washed and the other things I need to buy like mac and cheese boxes, peanut butter, maybe some other dry food type things. We're going to have to ration our American treasures. While in France these are some of the things that I'm going to miss... my sister's moveout, my cousin Daurie's high school graduation...my cousin kendall's 22 birthday, my mom's 50th birthday, father's day, my cousin Daurie's 19 birthday, Dalton's 14, Darren's 17, and Keenan's 16 birthdays those are just a few.. I know there are more things, but just in general for the family stuff. I've decided against taking my computer for a few reasons, it's only 1euro/hour at the internet cafe and I'd rather spend the money than have the chance of losing 2000 and i don't really feel like carrying around an extra 6 lbs when i don't have to.
