Going to back to school is a fun time. You get to decorate your room, see your friends again and buy new school supplies. But to get to the great moments of back to school, you first have to fit your entire life into a suitcase. For me, it's nearly impossible; I have about 10 too many pairs of shoes. The process can cause a lot of anxiety in your life, so here's a little Mindy Kaling to brighten your packing.
When you realize you leave tomorrow and look across your room towards your empty suitcase and your full closet.
When you start packing clothes you haven't worn since you were a freshman in high school because you'll obviously need it if you don't bring it.
When you tell your mom that you're worried about everything fitting and she tells you to just leave some stuff behind.
That moment half way through packing when you've completely given up on everything and are ready to drop out of college rather than finish.
When you give yourself a pep talk because it's time to close the suitcase and this is going to take all of your strength.
When you finally close the suitcase and find that one thing that you really needed to pack.
When you finish packing and realize you have nothing to wear until you're in your dorm room but decide to rock it.
The feeling of relief when you get to college and have everything you need because you did such a great job packing.
