I am getting ready to move back to my university for the semester (2nd senior year :p), and I have discovered Newton's Law of Moving:

*You will always lose the small but extremely important things: the charger for your Zen Micro, the cable for your printer. Pens, pencils, and scrap paper will not only always be there, but will get in your way until the day you die.
*No matter how much you say "I will only bring what I need with me," you always end up coming back at the end of the year with 3 times as much crap as when you moved out.
*Something seemly trivial will always break during the move, but later when you unpack will prove annoying: the FFD button on the TV and the little stand thingy on the righthand side of the keyboard.
*No matter how careful you are with a box full of kitchen stuff, a coffee mug will always :censored:ing break!!!
*No matter how much you look forward to seeing your friends again and being on your own, you will always miss Mom's cooking, playing with the dog and the big comfy recliner in the den. :o

That's why I don't don't have coffee mugs. Not much point seeing as I don't drink coffee :p

Another rule. If you have a roommate, he or she will always leave things behind that they no longer want rather than throwing it out, thinking that you for some reason might want it, even if you have signalled disgust with said item on many previous occasions.

Another one.

*You will get a $300 speeding ticket (:censored:ing school zone) right before you leave for a town an hour away.

Luckily I can do defensive driving and it will all cost $150 to get it wiped off my record.

Hey Sphinx, I blame Big Daddy Weave because I was jamming to their new song and didn't realize I had entered a school zone . . . also forgot school was in session . . . :o :rant:
