I hate moving. I really do. I have moved in&out 13 times since freshman year of college. This is numero 14. Thankfully, I haven't had to move in TWO YEARS. That's the record. Moving always makes me realize that I have SO MUCH stuff. Stuff that I feel like I need. As I've previously been moving to a place within 5 hours, we've just rented a UHaul and piled the stuff in. My mom always packed extra toiletries, cleaning supplies and food. When I moved to CT, there was a box that I packed my senior year of college and hadn't even touched for two years.
Luckily, the plan for California is as such: take 4 larges suitcases to leave with fam while apartment hunting (check), pack as much in Honda Civic as possible, ship the rest. Purchase "new" furniture & other essentials in California (anyone have tips besides Craigslist?). I have a giant goodwill pile, lots of papers to recycle and lots to give away. Major spring cleaning happening here - break time is over :)

Shelby and I have a house full of used furniture. We haven't purchased any of it new, we're proud to say. We're practically infamous for our good luck on Craigslist. Have you had bad luck with it? We have a good furniture consignment store here, maybe there's something like it in CA.
