My, Earth really is full of things!

I came home this winter, as is my wont, with as little as possible - backpack with books to be read, carryon-sized duffel with a DDR pad and a few choice pieces of clothing.

I'm going back, tomorrow, with two checked bags.

1: Hardfill for DDR pad, clothing wrapped around pad to protect awkward corners, giant blanket wrapped around everything.
2: DDR pad, RoboRally, some of the books I either brought back or acquired here, a manicure kit (still something of a WTF item to me), what little clothing I have that's too nice to be used as padding, Hilary's extra clothes, and yet another pillow.

The second suitcase in fact matches another suitcase I already have, and Dad said he'd rather it be thrown away - the two belonged to my great-grandmother. Such a sentimental person, my father.

How do I get this much stuff? For my last semester, no less.

You're welcome to use my clothes as padding. I don't think I left anything delicate there.

I used to always pack one duffel and my laptop to go home for Christmas break. In my duffel I packed a second duffel. I don't exactly understand it but stuff always multiplies during Christmas break.

It happened to me too- I just decided to ship everything back.
