So as I sat on the floor of my bedroom playing Tetris with my suitcase, I regarded the list I had started about a month before of what I needed to pack. Sure, I had remembered my toothbrush and sonic-screwdriver, but what about my passport? I still had to sign that sucker... so where did it go? I looked in my cookie-jar where I had placed it for safe keeping and discovered it was not there. Apparently it had made its way to Valparaiso Indiana with my sister! Well, now I get to see her one last time before either Christmas Break or June! :3
Also, Yesterday being our 21st birthday, I went out to dinner at our local Irish pub Ballydoyles. Jeff, our bartender, happens to be from Cork! Imagine that! I feel so much better knowing that there are folks over there who I can contact in case of an emergency.
If anyone has any tips about packing for a year overseas, or dorm-life, or international flights, or all of the above, please let me know! Also, does anyone know if it is possible to send a bike through the airport as a checked-bag?
Cheers!
