In Which I Aplogize for my Neglect and Reflect on my Pre-University Preparations

Hey everyone (assuming "everyone" is reading this...),
I can explain my lack of posts. Really. You see, I've been spending a lot of time preparing to move away - there are 6 weeks til I leave, 2 of which will be spent in NB with the family. So essentially, I have a month to sort through 12+ years worth of crap. I'm figuring out what I need to take with me (this boils down to "whatever will fit in my Bug"), what I need to sell/donate and what I need to keep at home.
This is surprisingly hard - in a sense, I'm saying goodbye to my childhood. Books, stuffies, old toys... everything has sentimental value. I have to be merciless though, since I simply won't use the majority of it after I leave. And in a way, it's refreshing. It's been said to me before that "the state of your room and of your possessions reflects the state of your mind", and if that's true I'm really getting the chance to clear out my mental crap and start over. It's a thought that's both calming and terrifying.
Ciao for now, I'm off to the final Harry Potter premiere (in 3D!)
