Packing for uni #1

Hi all,

So tomorrow lunchtime my mum and me will be driving up to Oxford with all my stuff so I can move into my new house. We arn't taking 2 cars because I have so much stuff (although I do have a lot) but because I need my car at uni so I can get back home etc. Trying to park is going to be an absolute nightmare as my new house is on a narrow but very busy street with parking on either side of the road, trying to find one space is going to be difficult enough let alone 2! Once I have them I will post some photos of the inside of the house but as of now I do not have any and have only been inside of it once before, but from what I can remember the house is pretty big :) It has 6 bedrooms (well hopefully they are supposed to be converting the attic into the 6th bedroom) and a large kitchen with dining table and sitting area. At the moment there is only one bedroom but I was told when they convert the attic another one may also be put in so we shall have to wait and see. I am moving in with 5 other girls from my uni, one who is going into her 3rd year and the other 4 are all in the same year as me (2nd). My bedroom has a double bed and a back door leading into the back patio area but that's about all I can remember so will have to write again once I am there to give more details. I don't think everyone is moving into the house tomorrow but I think there will be 4 or 5 of us so hopefully we will go out or something and have time to get to know each other as I don't know the girls particularly well yet. The photo above is one of my house mates Evie and the house (it's the house on the right that she is actually standing in front not the left one.)

Seeing as it is only about 24 hours until I will be packing the cars up ready to leave for Oxford, you would expect me to be all packed and ready to go? Wrong! I did yesterday evening start sorting out my kitchen equipment but got bored and so stopped. This means today I have a stupid amount of things to do, I need to wash all my clothes, organise what clothes I am taking and pack them in my suitcase, go to Tesco and do a food shop so I have food to eat when I get there, collect my contact lenses, go to Boots to get some makeup, go to the gym and probably some other things I can't think of right now. All this needs to be done before tonight as Nick is coming back (he went to uni on Monday for a bit of his freshers week) to spend my last night here with me which is so sweet of him and mummy is buying us Indian for dinner :)

I will post again later when I have progressed more with the packing etc, wish me luck
