Packing....or how to get lots of stuff into two bags

So yes, my first year in university is over. It has been a good ride, but like they say every good thing must come to an end, even if it's temporary. As you know, me being an international student I cannot carry all my extra stuff back home, so my good friend Sipho agreed for me to put my stuff in his house...Now when I told him, I said two bags..but deep down I was wondering if it was possible to get all my shit in two bags! I had one bag, but I needed to go buy another, now I was hoping to get a bag like my first one, coz it was £3, (and good quality too), but when I got to the shop, they were sold out. I guess there is a lot of people like me. The only bag they had left was £15, damn! what could I do, I aint packing my stuff in no refuse bag, adn I dunno where they sell Ghana-Must-go bags, so i copped it for £15. :-( Anyway, the packing began in earnest,(after watching Samu-L Jasson in Black Snake Moan- good movie) I had to fit the five shoes I'm leaving behind, along with books, and some crockery in one bag! That done. I had to get clothes in another bag, along with pots and pans. I had intended to put the pots and pans in a refuse bag, but I found out I had space, so in fact I stopped the noodles that were cooking, washed the pot and bagged it! yipee! so right now, the only things that are not in the bags that I'm leaving behind are....the two things I shouldn't have bought- my £5 printer, lol and my blender!
So anyway, last day, I decided to buy some food I hadn't eaten before, So i got some potato stuff- puffy stuff and some chicken nuggets. Since there were no oven pans (as the other peeps have left and I dont have one) I used the grill....which burnt my stuff....long story short, the food turned out nasty...like Nicole Richie...dunno why I said that, but whatever! I had to throw it away. At least I had pizza. Speaking of doing things different, I showered in the shower I had never showered in throughout this year.(and I wont shower there tomorrow) the shower power is so hard and I cant turn it down, damn the water beats you! I felt like Denzel in Glory..."one tear included"
Anyway speaking of food, I was shopping at Iceland a couple weeks back and I saw a packet of chicken wings, and it said- "Approximately 38 pieces", I was like- "that's some crazy ish"...approximately...where does the approximation start, you open it and there is 20 pieces, should you get pissed?? Approximately....it's like on a Pringle's cylinder they write "Approximately some chips inside"...or your Girlfriend coming up to you and telling you she is approximately pregnant."Girl is you or is you not with child before I approximately slap you!"...anyways I'm out. By the way i bought new shoes today...bringing my total shoe tally to 7! Comfortable shoes, and break from my hardy Nike boots.
Anyway I'm off to bed na, lots to do tomorrow, moving stuff, cleaning, shopping and going to the bank to cancel those people taking my money!...and buying rubberbands for my posters...and Laura's sunglasses!....and something small for daniel, coz there's no space in my bag....for the 1st time I'm coming without and dvd's :-(, but I got movies on my PC! lol. Anyway, living in the Forge has been alright!
I'm out!


My life in two bags!
