My sudden joy has been overshadowed by this single question that has been haunting me for the past month or so... "How in the world do you pack for a 4 month trip??"
I have spent the last two days packing... just on shoes! Most fashionista's would know, (and a certain Hamilton comes to mind..) that a pair of shoes can make or break an outfit. And while I am going abroad to attend school and not a fashion show, (a direct quote by my father BTW) I must say I certainly do not want to end up on Korea's issue of Glamour as a DON'T with my eyes covered by a BOLD BLACK LINE!!
I was given the dress code policy by KAIST University a few weeks ago. And it clearly states: NO SHORTS, NO SLIPPERS. Whaaaa..????? As an Angelenos, the flip flop has become a staple to my wardrobe year round. So to take that out of my shoe closet is a huge dilemma...
So in conclusion, you can only see that packing has become a huge burden for me. Can you feel the stress level as I write this??? And if you must know, I have decided to pack 16 pairs of shoes, lucky 16. :)
With that, I say farewell Los Angeles! Farewell to everything I love about LA, the smog, the traffic, the perfect 80 degree weather, flip flops, tan-o-rexic people on the beach, Mr. Chow and of course my lil Pepperdine community, friends and family. My next blog will be in Seoul, Korea so stay tuned!
PS. I want to thank Benjamin Hamilton for lending me his croc collections so that I may have a visual on my page today. Thanks B, you're the best!!! xoxoxoxo

What? You're heading over to Asia without a pair of croc? It's huge when I was in Taiwan. This is definitely not kosher. Let me sneak you in a pair before you leave. I'll be sure to get you some pink flowers and Mickey head as decorations too!
