It pains me to say that I have no Rotary engagements until I leave for Germany, nor do am I awaiting any further information about my exchange. For the past week or so I was a ship being propelled forward by the strong forces of a current, but now I sit in a windless sea, unable to move forward. Thus there will be a lack of posting for the next month or so. But today I finally came to the realization that I will have to fit a year of my life into two suitcases and a carry-on. It’s quite a daunting task, but with my knowledge and perseverance (in actuality my mother’s) I am confident that I will be able to do so without my worry.
The Du Toit family went on an impulse shopping spree today to buy me some new luggage. It wasn’t an easy task to find the correct combination of style and practicality, but after an hour of scanning the same luggage we finally completed our task. I am happy with my choice in luggage for it encompasses a perfect balance of femininity and professionalism.There are so many things to take into consideration when packing for exchange – and most of my ideas stem from the internet. I think that I have a bad case of searching things on the internet that end up making me more stressed out. Thus my solution is to turn off my internet until I go to Germany (that was a funny joke, wasn’t it?) I am tempted just to follow my own instincts when packing, and if I make a mistake then at least I know that it was my mistake.
