leaving for melbourne on sunday, so i'm packing right now! wrote a list of stuff to bring (to the tiniest detail), and my list of toiletries (and crap) is longer than my list of clothes. before packing i was damn worried that i wouldnt have enough clothes, but turns out i have more than enough so i'm cutting back on some to prevent over packing. damn scared of overpacking now, after i only wore a quarter of the stuff i brought to london&paris.

  1. 7 6 5 tops (over packing right here, but dont know which to cut)
  2. 4 3 shorts + 1 jeans
  3. 4 3 dresses (overpacking?!)
  4. 5 bras + 9 underwear
  5. 2 sets of sleepstuff
  6. swimsuit
  7. slippers + flats
  8. nail stuff (clipper, polish, remover, cotton pads)
  9. doctor's face cream (x5) + sunblock (overpacking)
  10. vain stuff (concealers and shit + scent) + makeup remover + face wash
  11. lip balm, leave in conditioner
  12. shaving stuff
  13. bathing stuff + 1-2 towels
  14. toothpaste, brush, floss
  15. 2 combs, rubberbands, clips
  16. lotion for my curls
  17. contact lenses
  18. medicine + itch cream
  19. hp charger + camera etc
hope i didnt forget anythingg!!!! bringing alot more than i want to bring, but i cant help it! :( maybe i can cut some less essential stuff and borrow from the 3 other girls going with me, lol!

and i am fucking excited i wanna go nowwww!

not buying a new bikini anymore so i'm saving that $60, huge part of my 'budget'.

anyway, today i went out with minping and i bought quite a few things. i got a pair of shorts, shoes, a mini top coat, and face wash from my doctor! thats $98 :( then it was 6B class gathering which was extremely stupid. me and minping met them late, so we just ordered our food and ate. after that we just mingled around discussing whether to watch movie or not blahblah, and the i decided it was stupid to travel to the west so i just went home. the rest dont know where they went but i have a feeling they didnt do anything else and went home too. 6B is so uninteresting lol.

only bringing $50 out for tmr so i dont spend more than that. lucky my nets card has nothing inside, haha.

edit/
googled for tips on how to pack light and they are fairly useless. one site said 'if you're not going to wear it more than 3 times, dont pack it!'. so i took out 2 tops, one shorts and a dress. the towels are a pain though.
