I hate suspense, I really really do

[britkit27]

So...now I'm in that awkward timestamp where I feel it's too early to start putting things in suitcases (and some stuff I can't put in suitcases cause I, y'know, kind of need it over the next week) but I really want to get started on things - actually to be totally honest I really want to get started on the things I'll need to be doing once I

*cough*iPhone*cough* or a Blackberry. I have the original Bold and I've been eyeing the new Torch...

My plan for packing for large trips is to put away everything except what can be packed last minute (toiletries, electronics, and the like). That way, you're mostly prepared. Have you made a checklist of everything to take over? And gathered it all for easy packing?

XD You do realize there is no way in hell my dad is buying me an iphone. The only reason he'd be getting me an touchscreen one is because he found some insane deal on it And even then he's talking about getting that one for himself and giving me his current phone And they're kind of big :/

I've covered my brother's bed in everything I want to bring that I'm not going to be using over the next few days. I don't have a specific checklist, really, but it's organized into sections so I can see what I do and don't have. I just want to start packing but am hesitant to start until I have everything there so I can really see how to fit it all to my best advantage. And I have to make sure that I don't put all the heavy stuff in one suitcase or it'll go over the weight limit >>

The iPhone 3Gs is only $99. Just saying. Blackberries, compared to Apples, are a bit heavier and are kind of bulky, even though the keypad is very nice.

You could keep all the light & important stuff for your carry-on, then spread the rest out equally?

[britkit27]

You've never met my father XD 99$ for a phone is too much. Believe me, I wouldn't mind an iPhone but while he's the one paying for it? Not going to happen.

I have two rollaround bags I can/will check, and two carryon one of which needs to be a just-in-case overnight bag. I'm sure I can figure it out once I start packing...I just feel it's to early to start packing. XD I'm running myself in circles, don't mind me.

Crazy talk. Your father sounds about as frugal as mine. Conspiracy I suspect.

Take a deep breath and calm down. It'll all work out fine. :D

[britkit27]

Oh, definitely. Mind, that frugality is for a damn good reason atm and has served us well in the past in getting us vacations to awesome places but...well XD yeah.

^ ^;; I'm sure it will too, but...I hate the suspense >.

[monarchist]

Very true. You and your cruises. /jealous

Uh... think happy thoughts. :D

[britkit27]

^ ^;; I can send you a postcard?

Am trying :D

[monarchist]

THIS BITCH LOVES POSTCARDS.

[britkit27]

XD I'm afraid they're not very exciting, they just have a picture of the ship on them but I can send one if you like.

Oh, how did letter translating go?

[monarchist]

POSTCARDDDDDD! :D

Uh.. I've been super lazy and haven't done it yet. =/

[britkit27]

XDDDDDD I'll dig it out and try and send it by tomorrow.

XD ok.

[monarchist]

Tonight! I'll pull out my workbook and do my best. I have a feeling I'm going to have major fail issues.

[britkit27]

:D I'm sure you'll be fine. I'll try and be online if you have any questions ^ ^

[monarchist]

Okay. I shall do my best!

Hey, I don't suppose you'd happen to know how to get a blackberry to work in Japan? I have a curve and it would be super convenient to have it work there, but I didn't think there was a way...
