Packing Tips For Your Summer Trips

In This Article:

I travel a lot, and I actually have found a way to enjoy packing! If you follow these simple tips it might make packing a little more enjoyable for you and allow you to focus on where you're going!

1. Prepare The Week Before.

Start thinking about where you're going. Look at the weather forecast, think about what you want to wear when you're going to be walking around, or at the beach, whatever the activity is for the day. If you know exactly what kind of look you need, it will be way easier to narrow down your options.

2. Roll your clothes.

Giphy

Rolling your clothes allows you to make the most out of your space. Instead of folding them like you would see in a store and stack them, roll them and set them next to and on top of each other. This is more efficient and you can pack more.

3. Bring versatile pieces.

Giphy

Depending on how long you are going to be gone, bring a few staple pieces that you can wear multiple times such as jeans or a winter coat. This allows you to save space and have a multitude of outfits at your disposal with less work.

4. If your friends want to, share!

Giphy

If you and your friends or siblings are the same size, share clothes. I do this with my twin sister and we automatically have double the wardrobe we want in the place we are visiting.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked.

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
