I got a large suitcase, a large sports bag with all my kitchen and microwave food. Also a large box for all my other stuff like toilet rolls, cds, laptop, paper etc. and still need to put my pillow and duvet in someting if i can find a plastic bag that big.

So am i the only one who thinks i got 2 much stuff let me no thanks.

I had an entire Ford Fiesta filled with stuff. Like the boot filled, the backseat filled to a level which just about allowed use of the rear view mirror and also stuff all over the front seat. And it all fits in my room. Was an utter bitch to unpack on my own though...

Do we get a chair?

Yeah, u should get a chair, but its not a very good one. Its normally one of those chairs from a school class room. I brought my own chair after a few weeks.

Too much? I'm gonna have to take 2 cars (one of which is a massive estate)! BUT that's partly because I wanna take my bike, and I don't think that will go in with the rest of my stuff (plus my mum and dad both want to come so I don't think 3 people plus my stuff will fit in the car).

I'm bringing a chair with me. It's a pink comfy desk chair with flowers on!!! :-D Dad's taking the crappy one they give you back home and bringing it back at the end of the year :p:

I haven't started packing yet...should I be worried? lol

I'm not going until Thursday, but I haven't done much packing at all. On top of that, I'm out until tomorrow evening (to say goodbye to people... :frown:

), so it's going to be a bit hectic when I get round to packing.
On top of it all, I'm having to separate the essentials which I'm taking on Thursday, and the stuff that my parents will bring when I find out about a more permanent room.
