Agreeing with Cleric's wisdom, while adding to it.
First find out how hard drive companies pack and ship harddrives and go thou and do likewise.
Ask a local computer store-they may even give you the sipping box some of their HD's came in.Next, you might consider picking up and external HD housing when you get where you are going-this would cost you about $30 based on prices here in Canada and when your old HD arrives you pop it in and you have a USB-based external. (find a brand and model that are compatible with your HD *before* you leave home)
Then you have an external HD that you can use to bring all your data with you on trips as well as facilitating future computer transitions.
*proud owner of over a terabyte of external data storage making my next computer upgrade totally hassle free*
(of course a terabyte is not saying much these days, lol)
That said, good luck-if there's something you really, really want to keep-back it up elsewhere!

Actually, I just realized that every hard drive I've seen came cushioned in the middle of a huge box, so maybe I'll copy everything over to the new drive, then put it back in it's box, THEN pack it up for shipping with the rest of my stuff.
I'm a freaking GENIUS.

why is birth control soo fucking expensive. You would think that drug companies and the government would be so fucking happy that I don't want to have kids right now that I would take a pill to trick my body. You would think they would make it affordable for the young and poor just-out-of-college woman. you would think that the government would be ESTATIC that I'm not trying to get on welfare and poppin out little fucking brats just so I don't have to work. $50 per month just so I have regulated bleeds and NO KIDS! there are way too many woman who need to be on birth control and who aren't. Give us(the responsible ones) a break on the price so we don't add to the overpopulation of the nation.
Ok.. since my little soap box time is done, I think I'll retire to my bed and curl up with my pussy.. (the cat you dirty minded fuckers!)

A rant, on the importance of hygiene.
I encountered a person today.
Now, I do not have a particularily sensitive olfactory sense, but I could smell this dude at six or seven feet.
Dear sweet Law, he smelled like vagina gone awry.
Big, obese, dude too.
The sort whose shirt doesn't reach all the way down to his pant's waist level. Probably hasn't seen his testicles in years.
Be clean folks, if not for yourself, than for those around you.

All I can say is your gyno should have given you other options, there are some generic ones that are less expensive, like 20 bucks. If you have insurance you should definitely revisit your options because you're totally being screwed.

apprently, ( and I do not know if this applies to america) But, you can get your birth control pills via online, for super super cheap ^^
Not sure how much it costs or anything- and I'm not even sure if it's true. But apprently it's an Canadian online pharmacy, and they send you the pills, without the goverment fees or whatever from the states, thus- making them cheaper. I'm sure if you googled it, and look for pages from Canada, you can fine it Micro ^^

Isn't that generally the reason why women get birth control? *ducks*
So, I was wondering, do birth control pills really come in those wheel-shaped things like in movies? Cause I remember seeing a motorized pez dispenser that looked just like those. Just a random thought.

It's like, one of the weirdest things to ever pop up in a capitalist society. Basically, these big companies will actually *PAY* to cover your medical expenses, car or property damage, etc., in return for a relatively small fee.
Sadly, you have to pay the fee ahead of time, so you can't just wait till you know you need it, or else it'd be a lot easier to budget for it.

Also on the topic of birth control, planned parenthood will generally help out in that area. Especially if one can show cause of why they can not afford it or ar hard pressed to afford it by other means.
I know they have helped many women obtain inexpensive but tested and good B.C. in the past. The trouble with getting things from outside sources is that they can be incorrect strengths, past expiration dates, not up to FDA standards. So please please please becareful whatever choice you make with your body!!!

If you've got a steady partner, are monogamous and both tested, and aren't looking to have kids anytime soon, I REALLY recommend the IUD. It lasts 5 years, works in 3 ways to keep you from getting babies, has less hormones than the pill or shots and is less harmful to your body. It's painful to get put in, but that goes away quickly, and after a year + of having it, I don't even have my monthly visitor anymore. It's the greatest thing ever.
