off to China
so i’ve been packing for weeks, which has proven to be an incredibly stupid idea. In my mind i figured i’d have enough time to make sure I packed everything, but the truth is I’ve just had a mess that moved around my side of the house. Traveling from my closet to the bed, bet to the bathroom floor and now everything is neatly laid out in my moms “blue couch room”...
