Is it too early to start packing?

I'm going away this weekend on a much needed trip to visit old friends. I haven't seen most of them since early March. 

Lately, things have sucked around here. School stress, work stress, loss, fighting with people/boyfriend... it all becomes too much and at time I can't deal with it so I just sit somewhere and stare at the wall.  

So Friday-Sunday, I will be gone. Little mini-vacation with some of my favorite people in the world.

This is the first time in a long time that I haven't had any homework to avoid. My room is clean, there are no quizzes or tests to study for, no reading (I'm actually ahead). What to do? I want to start packing, NOW. I still have a lot of time.

Plus day 10 of 30 days of truth
(One third of the way!)

10) Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn't know

Oh boy, I have so many people I wish I didn't know AND need to let go.

I think people I need to let go are all those people that have lied to me. Not little white lies, because let's face it, we're all guilty of that. But like major lies.

For example: In college, there was this guy named Silvio. He was cute. But he started dating some chick during freshman welcome week. I went back to school during second trimester. I ended up meeting him at an All Greek event (meaning he was in a fraternity).

A few weeks later, he called me out of nowhere. We were both drunk. We ended up in my dorm. I told him that I didn't want to do anything if he was still dating his girlfriend. He told me they broke up. BIG LIE.

The next day, I told my friend Mariel. And all hell broke loose. I'm guessing through Facebook, she found out he was still in a relationship. I was so pissed off.

I was bitter, for a few years. Then I just hated the guy. And he was trying to make moves on all my sorority sisters, and even made one of them cry! That was the last straw. I wanted to slap him. But I never got to.

I'm still mad, bitter, whatever. I need to get over it. It's not that I felt bad that he lied to me. But I felt bad that he cheated on his girlfriend with me. When she found out, YEARS later, she cried. I don't blame her.

Silvio is definitely on the top of the list of people that I wish I never knew.
