Heading for Summer

For students here, summer means one thing: holidays. A whole year of studies is over. I’m no longer a freshman! It’s weird. The whole process, however, is extremely exhausting. Who knew packing was so hard? Tons of boxes, and having to depend on kind people to store the stuff. The box sitting in the middle of the living room is formidable. It’s a tv box, the type that a child could use as a house in an imaginary game. Or the perfect box for Spongebob Squarepants, in that episode where he and Patrick play pretend. Yes, I actually remember such an episode. Truth is, it’s not just a time or two when wanting to watch a show that I hardly ever watch, the tv broadcasts the exact same episode that I had watched before. Of the tons of episodes, what are the chances of the same episode showing? Bah. Well, I digress.

So back to packing. Why do I have so much stuff? I should have got rid of my textbooks, but it’s too late for that. The luggage is piling high.. but I’m fairly confident that I could crush the clothes enough to zip it shut. There’s the printer, and the guitar amp. I was going to sell that, but well, this is a remote place, and an advertisement on Craigslist doesn’t get many hits. So now I’m stuck with one more thing for people to store. And I wish I could bring my guitar along, but I’m not about to risk it in a gig bag, on a plane which might be too full. And not to mention quite a bit of traveling in the next couple of months. Not quite worth the extra worry.
