I'm officially in the home stretch of my last few days in Minneapolis. I have two more nights in my apartment and then two nights at my friends' apartment before my trek back to St. Louis. I didn't think that I'd freak out at all about leaving but now I'm starting to get really overwhelmed with moving out of my apartment. I'm not freaking out about leaving and I'm not nervous for Korea; I just have SO much to do in the next few days!
I have almost all of my furniture squared away except for my bed but if it's not gone by tonight, I have a contingency plan for it. The huge majority of my packing will be my clothes and if I can knock that portion out today like I'm planning to do, I will be 100X more relaxed about the rest of it. I still have a few other miscellaneous non-packing things to do before I move but I feel like I have time to get this all done. Once I get packed up and out of here on Thursday, I have little-to-no-responsibility save for my GRE before my departure.
On the flip side, the biggest things keeping me from packing are my awesome excursions with my friends. I am overwhelmingly ecstatic by the amount of people coming to my farewell evening on Friday and everyone has been incredible at making time in their schedules to hang out before I leave. I had one of the best Sunday Fundays of my life with two amazing friends and yesterday I did something really cool: the behind-the-scenes tour at Sea Life at the Mall of America! I highly highly highly recommend this to anyone visiting or living in Minneapolis! It was seriously so cool. I also found out that they have snorkel and dive options, too. If I would have known that before my last week here, man I would have taken that up.
Overall, I think I'll be just fine with getting everything done and if I'm not, there is always my preferred method of moving: waiting until 7 hours before I'm set to leave to even start thinking about getting it all in boxes.
DISCLAIMER: I TOTALLY WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THAT AT ALL TO ANYONE.
