This upcoming vacation I’m nervous. It’s the travel anxiety of making sure everything goes smoothly. Did I forget the poncho? What about an umbrella. In the beginning of March I decided this trip was for me. No one was forcing me to go on this trip. I genuinely wanted to. A 5 day getaway to a warm sunny place. To relax and enjoy the view from the hotel? Who wouldn’t. My vacation will begin when I pass TSA and get a sausage egg mcmuffin. Large sweet tea. I can only imagine it now.
Today I went shopping to find a suitcase. I got my hopes up when I spotted a lavender DKNY suitcase. Until I put it on the cart and opened it. Hot red. Apple red. I battled with myself about getting it. I put it back knowing I dont think I could endure a suitcase like that. But no one would see the suitcase inside. Yes it could be justified. But morally I don’t think I can accept the facts. Hopefully soon I will find a suitcase. There are some miscellaneous items I might need. A little backpack for walking around. Comfy shoes are a must. (I hope I dont get blisters. But on the bright side I will be getting exercise in.)
As for the move. I would most likely make sure everything was in order before I left. I may write another post about my experience in my apartment. Just a small reflection piece. The current one I’m in has been hard mentally emotionally. More on that later. I want to keep this about the vacation.
Growing up in an ideal location for a getaway seeing the tourists during the summer. The heat and the tourists during the season. We had beaches. It was a drive away. My vacation was spent at the beach as a kid. Playing in the sand watching the sunset. I’ve been a huge fan of vacations in general. Vacations can be with family or a partner/solo. Away from the chaos of life. Mhm. The cruise was for a week getaway. I slept on the couch my family got the queen beds deal. With family I try my best to make do with what I have. If that means its the couch or the tub. (The motel we stayed at was smokey so I slept in the tub.) I’m grateful that we get to go on a vacation.
As a kid most of my creativity was limited. Recently I’ve been finding out the activities that make me smile or make my inner child happy. When I was in relationships I felt so limited. Finally figuring out what I want, what I like. I have a strong passion for creative projects. Recently my obsession has been stickers. Is it weird I put stickers on my breath strip case?
Most of my family travels. My Mom likes to travel alot. She stole my suitcase..well I guess she can borrow it. As a young kid I would get to travel to many many places. Learning about cultures, languages and even hosting international students. I enjoy the planning part of the trip. Hopefully I get to go to Japan next year. (One of my travel dreams.) Hopefully in the next few years I get to travel more. Hopefully more vlogs with my new camera setup. (After debating about filming equipment I ended up settling on the DJI osmo pocket 3.) Hopefully for my little adventure it will be easy to use. I havent decided if I want to split up my trip in 2 parts. I feel like 45 mins might be too long for my footage. Bite sized like 30 mins would be ideal. I will have 4 locations ill be going to. Depending on how much time I have, ideally those 4 areas.
It will depend on my energy level. The good part is I can take as much time as I need and the hotel will be close so I can regroup. I also booked it during my birthday 🎂 so it’s a fun celebration with you guys.
My Birthday has always been a sore subject. Sometimes i’ll celebrate others I won’t. This year I want it to be special. It will be my 27th birthday. Time flies. It was only yesterday when I walked out of high school.
This blog has been so hard but so inspiring. Not giving up I want to become better at writing. Most of my thoughts have been scattered. I have so much on my mind honestly. As for my YouTube Q and A I may post it in a form post to read. I haven’t decided.
My goal this week is to write a post everyday / every other. Mhm mhm. (We will see if I get inspired with some topics.) I deleted most of my posts I think? I may repost them. Overall mentally I’ve been doing good.
Filling out forms and calling to plan ahead. As much as moving is stressful it will give me a new space to have my creativity. More room and less dealing with the logistical side of things. Hopefully you get to hear about my wonderful adventures. Ill be logging off but stay tuned for more posts.
