What should I do about moving away from my boyfriend?
girl you have nothing to worry about, honestly. this will be good for your relationship and your academics as well. i dont know him, but i do know that most bf can be a distraction on our lives, that being said having that distance between him and your studies will give you an advantage as oppose to having him around you 24/7, which is what it sounds like your relationship is at the moment. as for you worrying over whether or not this will damage the bond you two have, i think there is a good chance it could strengthen it. as they say, absense makes the heart grow founder. true he is only 30 mins away (and that is nothing!) but, i assume your classes will be taking up most of your free time, and you may see less and less of him. but that makes the time that you do spend with him-- that much more special!
Can dogs sense when you’re moving away?
I plan on some time this weak leaving to South Korea for a while and I find that for some reason out of no where for the past 4 hours my dog has been extremely clingy (clingier than normal) she keeps trying to lay her head in my neck, rubbing her head against mine, standing on my chest. And she’s not in heat, so what does this mean?
Moving, should I take the stray cat?
Yes, you should take him. When you do bring him to your new place it is very important that you do not let him out. Cats are very territorial and come equipped with homing ability. He will immediately try to return to his former home if allowed outside. I think that since he is a stray, not a feral, he should adapt to living in a house again. Being removed from the place he considers home will be initially traumatic for him. He will probably freak out and hide for some time. If you still cannot touch him, you have a ways to go with him and I don't know how much time you have. The best way to trap a cat is using a cat or raccoon trap such as a Hav A Hart trap. These are fairly expensive to buy but you may be able to borrow one from an animal shelter if you leave a deposit. You are going to need to call around. There are videos online on trapping cats. Google "youtube trapping feral cats" and you will find many. I will try to update later if I have more ideas.
Best way to start packing...any moving tips?
Pack for the room it is going to - think DESTINATION. Do not mix contents of boxes (i.e. kitchen with living room) or unpacking will be a disaster (my husband did this - look there is room in here! I will stikck in x... ack!). Get rid of unused stuff. Pack clothes and soft, unbreakable stuff in garbage bags - but mark them with ribbons or something so you know they are clothes, not garbage. Do not make boxes too heavy... while you may have energy at the beginning, at the end, you are tired and less heavy boxes are nicer. But true a bunch of boxes does seem overwhelming. I pack books into milk crates so they do not explode and limit the amount that can go into them so they do not get so heavy. Make sure you pack one box that is UNPACK ME FIRST - it has essentials like toilet paper (a few rolls), cleaning supplies, paper towels, bottles of water, etc. so you can get rolling cleaning up at the new place but be prepared if nature calls and not have to run out to the store. Do not label boxes with valuables with labels that show that they have items of value in them (jewelry box!) of they may disappear. Either give those items to friends to hold to deliver after the move or hand carry the items, or label them so that you know and no one else does. Start with the kitchen and work your way out from there. Discard duplicates and garbage. Two days is short but hope you have a lot of boxes and supplies such as paper and tape! Good luck!
