I know I'll be bringing probably six or seven boxes, but pretty small ones. A couple for clothes, one for bedding, (Yay pillows!), one for computer stuff, one for cooking stuff, and probably one for binders/folders/general school stuff. I don't think I'll be bringing that much compared to many people though.

I agree with everybody else about living on res even if you're close. I'm only up in Burlington, but I decided to move in anyways because it'll make it way easier to make new friends, and as an engineer being able to get up and be in class within five minutes is definitely a major bonus. Plus, I kinda think anybody who'd want to have their family around through first year is pretty silly.

She is only saying that since she is a rep ... LMAO

I think picking which clothes to bring may be a heart-breaking experience for me
But I'm bringing loads of stuff. I've been buying/packing since late June haha
I live about 2 hours away so it's not all that convenient to have to bring more up, either.
