Packing List

I've yet to compile a proper list of things that I should bring - it's far too early for that - but here this is, to ensure that i do eventually bring some things which i'm certain i'll forget..

useful lnks:

a site that has now closed mentioned a bringing a pair of pumps/sandals that look like they've never been worn outdoors for you to change into when you enter the school building..

and my list of stuff to bring:
a traditional/cultural costume (the punjab suit i wear every racial harmony day)
