So, here's what I've been up to:
Nothing. I'm exaggerating, but really, I'm super unproductive. The suitcase to the left is not mine, but it is empty like mine and is red like mine.
The problem is, I have to pack because I'm leaving Tuesday morning to catch a flight at 9:15am. Yeah, that's fantastic. I have to get there 2 hours ahead, AND the driving takes like almost 2 hours... so that means I'm leaving around 5am?!??!?!
This is going to be a problem. Haha.
So, I have not packed yet and I have lots to do. Yesterday I went to KMart and got a plug adapter for Australia, a travel pillow for the horrible Coach seats and my favorite, I got 4 little 3oz plastic bottles for facewash, lotion etc. The flight's 18 hours so I'm hoping to bring my mp3 player and listen to some book tapes. I was about to download the Twilight series, but after watching the movie with Amir I reconsidered. Anyway, I wanted to bring my laptop and get some work done, but it turns out that adapters/inverters are SUUUPER expensive. No go on that idea!
I also fake booked a ticket for Cathay Pacific to see if I had any chance of moving up a few row or out of Economy, but it seems that out of 353 seats on this Boeing 777-300 plane, there are two still open in economy. One of them just so happens to be on my left... yay for space?!? I guess I should be lucky that I'm sitting in the aisle, although I am in the second to last row, very near the bathrooms.
Hopefully the food will be good. The website says that they have a full stock of food that you can snack on anytime. I might just really, really take advantage of this. And when I say I might, I mean I will. It makes sense, because heck, what am I going to do on a 18 hour flight!? Anyway, I paid for it! Also, I should stock up on food when I get to Hong Kong, or even Beijing for that matter because layovers are annoying, and I don't want to get hungry and buy super expensive airport food. By the way, I'm staying in Hong Kong for a night because my layover is super long. That should be an interesting blog post. :)
