Goodness, the monumental first post is here. Unfortunately, I do not have any parting words to really justify my excitement, so this post will have to do.

a different kind of little red book
I leave for Beijing in 24-some hours, and I am crazy excited to the point where boredom is simply inexcusable for the 13-hour flight. I have a new red journal to write! I can’t wait to write about daily happenings and fill up the pages with doodles. NEW JOURNAL — now how is that not exciting.
I am attempting to fit everything into one suitcase (under the 50 lb limit), one backpack, and one purse. I would totally take advantage of this two-suitcase-limit-for-international-flights-only but we all know that I am going to come back with like, six cases the size of baby hippos. Sorry, baby hippos, but I don’t think that you’d want to be forcefully shoved onto a plane compartment. We’ll see how my packing prowess measures, as I attempt to fit heaps of clothes, anvil-sized books, a laptop, tangled-up electronics, toiletries, and whatever else I deem necessary.
Riiiight. In my defense, it is 3:18 AM and I should have better things to do. Like rest my eyelids. Or exercise my dream interpretation skills.
In other words, I have ZZZZZZZZZs to manufacture.

That’s a beautiful picture, and wow, Beijing + plane + new journal = excitement overload, hahaha. Oh, oh, oh, are there going to be any sunsets/sunrises on your flight? I LOVE seeing those from the sky.
I’m terrible at writing in paper journals, because I always want to write so much but it takes so much time and my hand gets so exhausted.
Wow, that sounds difficult. All the best with your ambitious packing plans.
LOL, nice.
Go manufacture those Zs!
