Okay, imagine you are walking through the woods. It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, the flowers are blooming and you are having a great time!

Now, on top of that, add a 27 pound backpack full of bricks. 

*waits for reaction*

Yeah, I don't think you would enjoy it as much with the backpack...

That's how I'm feeling about the backpacking trip I am going on. I have so much stuff I have to pack, and most of it is absolutly useless. It's like I'm packing five pounds of extra bricks on my back. It's not gonna be fun...

Oh, and when packing the useless stuff, you realize that you don't have even HALF of the stuff that is required! So then you have to run to Walmart, grab them and spend twenty bucks on absolutly usless stuff. 

Seriously, if you want me to pack this stuff up a mountain and back, at least allow me to have less weight. I don't need TWO sweatshirts and TWO extra jackets. I have a VERY warm sleeping bag and I really don't think I need thermal pants. A tank top will be JUUUUUUST fine. 

Oh I forgot! After you pack all the stuff, get up suuuuuuper early (5:30am) and climb into a crowded van with at least 17 other girls. I think that I will be:

A) falling asleep

B) grouchy

C) Not having fun at all

and D) wishing I had brought a book. 

Yeah... You should probably except the fact that I have mixed feelings about this trip.... 

Thanks for reading. Please comment and vote because... um... because... I don't know. Do what you want. I've got to update another story and cram in a bunch of reading material to last me for half a week...
