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 :)
