KC Blog. I am heading back to Acadamy!!

We meet again Hello I'm back! Well I'm almost there. I'm sitting in the Seattle Airport waiting for my flight to Beijing. I'm going back to China! I know what you are thinking, I JUST got back from China and I know I did. But I'm going back for Scott's disciple ceremony. (ill let him tell you about that) My parents wanted to go but they are sooooo busy they couldn't make it. They are sensing me as their replacement and I'm not complaining. I found out a week ago that I was going back to China so I've been scrambling around trying to get everything together. I started taking online classes so I had Scott check to make sure I could go online and do my class while I'm there. I packed two days before I left and that was a good idea. Yesterday I had to drive to the Chinese consulate to pick up my visa. It took me 2 and a half hours to get to San Francisco because all of the traffic. Thankfully it only took mr about 40 minutes at the consulate to pick up my visa. Last Friday I was at the office for 3 hours. An hour and a half outside waiting to get into the office and get a number and another hour and a half for my number to be called. When I got home yesterday I tried to clean up my house for my mom who will be staying there with my doggies. I still had to buy all the snacks and goodies that I'm supposed to bring with me. I pick up my mom and we go to target and Costco. My car is packed with treats. Omg how am I going to pack all of this???? I'm bringing two luggages to check in, a back pack, a duffle bag, and a tote bag. Im bringing a lot of gifts give me a break. I tried packing food on my own but it was clear it wasn't all going to fit. I ask my roommate Ana to go through the clothes I'm bringing with me just to double check if I'm over packing. We go through everything an I take out a sweater a pair of leggings and a pair of workout pants.... That didnt help much. I call my mom and tell her I need help. We try fitting everything in the bags but we can't. Ana suggests we get space saver bags. Its past 7pm... We go to Walgreens. None there. We go to CvS pharmacy. None there. We finally find them at bed bath and beyond. We rush home and get to work.  We unpack my bag again and are able to fit all my clothes. Some blankets im bringing as gifts and a little more stuff in my bag. Next obstacle is to weigh it. Oh boy here we go... We use Ana's scale and it says 49 lbs. Perfect! 50lbs is the limit.   We are then able to fit most of the food in the other luggage and my duffle. We take some stuff out of the box but we are able to fit 98% of it. We weigh the bag and the scale says 49lbs... Wait a minute... We use my scale to weigh it and it's a little higher. Well it must be somewhere in between. After I pack I paint my nails, my mom attempts to dye my hair (first time) and I relax. We have to leave at 5am to make it to SFO by 7. I'm boarding soon so I'll tell you about my crazy day later.
