My Carry-On Essentials.

I leave for America in few weeks so I have packing and putting together the final pieces that I need to take with me. 

Here are my essentials for my carry-on luggage..

1. Blanket - I know that all long haul flights provide you with a blanket but those are small and pathetic so I like to take my own so that I can snuggle down and enjoy the on-demand movies and occasionally try and get some sleep! 

2. Pillow - Whenever I go on a long distance journey I also take a pillow with me, for my journey to america I was bought a delightful bear pillow pet which is so comfy. (also again I don't like the ones that they give you on the plane!)  

3. Purse - So I can spend all the money that I don't have in duty-free.... whoops. 

4. Passport - urm well it can be pretty hard to leave the country without it! 

5. Headphones/earphones - For the plane I like to take both headphones and earphones because I like to use them both throughout the flight. I start off with the headphones but then as I get tired I like to switch to the earphones so that I can be more relaxed and I don't hurt my head. 

6. Hand Sanitizer - planes are full of so many germs! So I always take some hand sanitizer with me just to make sure that I don't pick up anything bad. 

7. Moisturiser - Your skin gets so dry on an aeroplane, so I ALWAYS take moisturiser with me and put a good amount on half way though the flight and touch it up just before landing so that my skin looks as good as it did getting on the plane as it does getting off the plane.

Dealing with stress.

Sometimes life can be very stressful. Luckily for me right now life is thankful, de stressed. I have finished all of my coursework, finished my new bedroom and all I have left to do is pack and prepare for America, (which I leave for a month today!). 

Here are some tips that I have picked up over the years.... 

Listening to music or podcasts on an iPod or music player instead of your phone - means you don't get distracted and you can almost drown the world out. 

Go for a walk / run - I find that it just clears your head and you find the opportunity to work out all of the things you have going on in your head. 

Have a netflix marathon - I love to just put on a good chick flick or a good Disney movie that I know will just a great big smile on my face!

Bake some treats - There is nothing more in the world that can make a person feel better than baking a cake, you don't have to be the best baker in the world (you can by those part baked mixtures now days).

Have a nap - sleep is a magical magical thing that just leaves you feeling so much better. 

Do something creative - I love to be creative and it just makes me feel very calm and at peace. Anything from writing to painting to sewing to drawing.
