Travel Woes

[Shorty]

Alcohol only seems to make to make it worse in the past few years.

[Slothy]

Is there anything that doesn't make you motion sick?

I don't really have any travel woes aside from not having the money for it. I pack light, I'm not afraid of flying or anything like that. I can get kind of bored if I'm stuck in an airport waiting for a flight for a while, but that's about it, and easily remedied with a book or my PSP.

Standing still doesn't make me motion sick.

[Slothy]

You poor girl.

Occupying yourself in an airport is easy.

Go get drunk or sleep.

[Slothy]

I dislike sleep and booze costs money.

Airport anything is not cheap, but there are plenty of other options to keep one occupied: People-watching, window-shopping, reading, journalling/sketching, and any combination of calling people/playing videogames/listening to music that your electronic devices may allow. Remember to stretch, stay hydrated, wear comfortable and easily-removed shoes, and try to get some rest on your flight. Throat lozenges work wonders for nausea and popping ears. Travel safely!

And you don't need hairspray

Sure it's expensive! I think I spent like $40 on like . 4 large draft domestic beers at Philly airport XD and then another $20 on wine elsewhere. Well spent though. I was pretty well buzzed.

Being over 6 feet tall makes flying in poor class really uncomfortable, but aside from that the only thing I really mind about travel is going through customs and immigration because those guys are assholes.

[Spuuky]

I can pack for a trip to anywhere, of any length, in one backpack. I don't find it difficult or stressful at all.

I need my hairspray because it's the only weapon TSA will allow me to have. *SPRAYS U*

Also alcohol and flying should not happen, but my hairspray also has about 98% alcohol content if I do need it...

[Shorty]

I've passed lighters through the TSA before. Those folks are not thorough.

[Shiny]

lol not surprised except I am one of those people who are unlucky and get someone who's having a bad day and just wants to be a dick.

TSA actually allows cuticle cutters...wtf...you don't allow straight edges, but you allow sharp ass cuticle cutters?!

[yukina]

Packing because I tend to forget things. And I'm a crammer by nature so I always put it off until the last possible minute.

Also, immigration. I can't help it if I look like a 12-year-old even if I'm of legal age already but the way I keep getting harassed by them during international travel, it's as if they expect me to do illegal work abroad for some sleazy company or something. Granted they ARE doing their job but I'm just pissy whenever it happens to me.

Man all you need is one change of clothes. Lugging all that excess trout around the US with me was horrible, I regret being prepared because it was super overprepared. At least I wasn't cold though.
