this was supposed to be posted last week

I tried making a packing list yesterday when I was supposed to be listening to a lecture on Therapods, or Sauropods.  I don't know.  How am I supposed to do this?  I know they give me a pretty specific list, but come on, the worst part is I really think that my current wardrobe is unacceptable, like I need to go buy new stuff.

 

I decided to sell almost everything, except for those items which I am particularly attached to, so help me out, give me 5 bucks and help me raise some money to buy a short wave radio and a new rain jacket, and in return you can have a piece of me, haha.  Yes your very own Bridget memento.

 

Here is the packing list thus far -
