I have a dilemma.
Kat, who has so kindly offered to put me up in Japan (♥!!!) will have to work on Saturday so won't be able to meet me until the evening/night. That means I'll run around by myself in Chiba city for a while (KRK movie? XD A good & bishie-ful way to kill time! It's the first day of showing but I might still be able to get a ticket~) My plane lands at 10am, so with customs & travel, I'll prolly get there at around 1-2pm?
I'm trying to decide which suitcase to bring with me.
Large one
Pros: It has wheels, can stand up and be pushed or pulled along. Sturdy.
Cons: I'm unlikely to find luggage storage that can hold it during my first day there, so I'll have to push it around with me O_O The suitcase itself is heavy already and I only have 20kg luggage allowance. >_>
Small one (ie the one I took to SqueeFest/Hana/Tine's place)
Pros: Much lighter. Has wheels, can be pulled around. I can bring one of those very strong, large bags (called red-white-blue in Cantonese XD they're made with a sort of plasticy canvas?) and just use it when I accumulate shopping later on in the trip. It's much more likely I can find a locker that can store the case while I run around on the first day. Together with the bag, this gives overall more storage room than just one suitcase.
Cons: Large bag won't have wheels. I'll have problems with it when I leave Japan =/ Also, two pieces of medium-sized luggage is not easy to handle by myself.
Either way, I'll be taking Heathrow Express and then taxi on the way back, because I've hurt my back before and will not risk hurting it again. It's the trip between Kat's place and Narita Airport that I'm worried about.
I don't have much to take on the way there but I predict I'll have a lot on the way back.
What would you do, if you were me?
(Squee!!!! Glay/Himuro concert on Sunday! I can't wait \(^0^)/)

TOPLESS?
TOPLESS KAZUKI?
I'M GOING TO SEE KAZUKI TOPLESS?
OH. MY. GOD.
*spazzes*
And Glay. GLAAAAAAAAAY. I can't wait for the concert on Sunday. It's a short one... 2.5 hours only? But. JIRO. HISASHI. TAKURO. TERU.
JIROOOOOOO. My heart beats faster just thinking about him. THAT MUSIC. THE WAY HE BOUNCES ON THE STAGE. JIRO. JIROJIROJIROJIROJIRO.
(Glay > Kazuki any day, but of course I heart Kazuki. If someone ask me if I love Jiro or Shirota more, though... now that's a tough question. Probably Jiro. Jiro > Shirota > Kazuki, I suppose.)
...can anyone tell I just can't wait? XD;

Aug. 3rd, 2006 11:07 pmI got bored with packing. ^^""""" (this website is fun!)
The thing I like about summer travel: the clothes to bring are light and non-bulky.
The thing I dislike about summer travel: I don't like wearing summer clothes and therefore have very little of it to choose from.
And being a boots-whore, I'm tempted to bring a pair with me. Except the pair I want to bring has heels that are so worn it's actually a bit too short for the boots XD; Why didn't I get them fixed when I went home in April?
In the end, I'm bringing very little in terms of clothing. I'll just buy there 8D
