Re: Essential items to pack for Atlanta?

Let's see...

- NERD button (notice that its my number one item)

- Clothes, which include my spiffy tie dye skirt that matches my team shirt, as well as clothes to wear while hanging out after competition hours.

- A sweater/fleece, just in case it is cold like last year.

- BATHING SUIT - I swear to god I will go swimming at the hotel pool this time. (and I have about 4 new ones that I am dying to try out).

- "toiletries"

- iPod for plane ride

- Logos for Arefin's offseason competition (Mission Mayhem)

- Embroidery thread, beads, hairties, and tin foil, so that I can give everyone (at least the girls) hair wraps in our team colors.

- All my Mardi Gras beads that I have collected over the years!

- Safety glasses

- Money

- Cell phone

- Raffle Ticket for Webhug

- Painkiller of some sort (for headaches)

- Caffeine of some sort

Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Dave!

I fondly recall many a late night trip to the KK on Ponce during my years at Georgia Tech. We always hoped we'd see the "Hot Now" sign switch on just as we parked the car. Nearly crashed once, trying to make a quick left turn on the way back from Decatur, when that sign switched on while we were passing Krispy Kreme!

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Not just a checklist of what you're going to pack, but a checklist of what you DID pack so you don't forget anything!
