Packing Hell

I don't think most people realize how mentally and physically straining packing is. I thought I didn't have much, but things kept multiplying as I packed. I spent three days straight mostly packing. I was so stressed out that I even cried a little today between packing and taiko performances. I don't know if it was my nerves that caused this (or the other way around), but I started to have a massive stomachache that gave me chill shocks throughout my body. I felt so cold. It was different from the flu and I know I'm not sick. This made the packing process more difficult, but it was better than resting in bed because I was more conscious of the sharp pains nabbing me. Forcing myself to move around was a good distraction. ^^;

After 1 large box, 2 medium boxes, 3 small boxes, a suitcase, and two makeshift garbage bags storing miscellaneous items, I'm done! I'm writing this because I made it...!

Finally!

I've always done packing on my own since freshman year. Everyone always has friends to help them, but I somehow end up doing everything myself. ^^; I don't mind~ it's a good way to build strength. Right now, I'm just waiting for a vacuum cleaner. And my friends to come get me and carry my things to their room. I'm going to secretly stay in her room for the next 5 days before boarding a train for Vancouver...! It's not even 9PM yet, but I'm so tired that I want to go to bed already.

Haha. Packing can get quite insane! I shared a suitcase with my sister when we went to Japan. It was such a relief once it was over. ^^
