Travel Day
I leave in about twenty minutes for the airport. I had almost everything packed last night, and so I was only scrambling a little bit today. Last minute additions to my backpack (AKA all of my worldly possessions for the next month) include:
-a nice, airy skirt for uber-hot days, plus matching top
-a teal bedsheet decorated with fish that once had a place on my little brother's bed (I won't forget it on some anonymous plastic hostel mattress like I would a white sheet)
-a mini anti-persperant from the dollar store (my other one was taking up too much room!). Dollar stores are brilliant for travel-sized items, P.S.
-a smallish hairbrush that nonetheless looks like it could actually do something to my hair. I didn't want to bring the big blocky hairbrush that I normally use (it looks like those giant square metal brushes you use to card wool, if that analogy makes any sense). Also acquired at the dollar store (for $1.25!)
I also despair of the fact that my comfy hiking shoes are bright red, and the fact that my backpack and matching daypack are both forest green. Matching fail. I like Christmas, just not on summer trips. ;)
In conclusion, here is a picture demonstrating the turtleshell-like nature of my backpack, taken before a test walk with tripmate Erin last month:
Not pictured: the shoes I'm actually going to be wearing, the pensive, almost zen calm that I'm feeling at this moment.
