As you guys heard from my last post I am going to Vancouver!! Which is quite exciting but the problem is.. we are going by CAR!! OMFG!! And it's going to take about a day in a car to arrive there!! I am so not excited now.... So here it goes! This post is going to be on how to endure road trips....
Obviously, to endure road trips you need to be entertained, keep your mind off the clock and Are we there yet? questions.. SO! you will need things to do in the car! And this is what I am planing on doing to survive a long road trip:
1) Sleep
Yes, I know its such a lame idea since, some people don't even sleep (well maybe even can't) in road trips. But if you do get the hang of sleeping in a car, it is a great way to pass hours and get beautiful skin! So the night before a road trip sleep very late and wake up early! Or not sleep at all... then you will definitely( okay.. well most likely) doze off.
2) Gaming
I CAN'T SURVIVE WITHOUT GAMES IN A ROAD TRIP!! I would probably die without them! This is the best of the best way to survive!! Bring your Psp, Nintendo, and especially i pad, itouch or iphones! Just bring any gaming things, maybe even Tamagotchi's? They will become well... ARE a LIFE SAVER in road trips!!
3)Listen to Music
Another thing I must do to endure road trips! Just put on your music (preferably not on the radio, use a music device like: mp4, mp3 I touch, I pad, I pod, I phones instead, since there may be people in the car that may hate your music and get pissed off at you and kick you out of the car!!which would totally suck!) and with your music players just jam to your favorite songs! (Although people might think you are weird if you don't do it in your head, but whatever!)
4) Photography/ Camwhore
When you are tired of music and games, but still have batteries on your devices that has a camera (or if you have a camera) then start taking pictures of the scenery outside, since you may not ever see it again and practice on your photography skills or even better just take pictures of YOURSELF! And if you have i phones or apps in your devices that can edit and make the pictures even cuter and more beautiful! Then that is even more better to waste time!
5) Play cards
This is when you're electronic devices run out of batteries, just find someone beside you and play cards with them...It can last you hours in a car! Also, if you are alone and have no siblings, then just play solitaire or learn and practice magic tricks with the cards?
6) Watch movies/TV
Download your favorite movies or TV shows on your I devices the night before you leave.Or if you have a portable Dvd player bring that along and it will keep you entertained... well until the batteries run out that is.
7) BLOG!
Although, there is no Wi-Fi or internet in your car (well maybe there is then good for you) if you don't then use your cell phone or I devices and use the "note" function if you have one and start typing! Then later on when your reach your destination you can copy and paste then post online. But, if you can't wait then you can always find the closest McDonald's to you or somewhere you can get free Wi- Fi and then post it online.
8) Snack
A really unhealthy and fattening way to make time fly by, but if it works then who cares? At least your mind is off of the horrible long road trip. OH! and I just thought of another one after you are full of snacking then do some leg exercises or stretches so you won't get as fat... well that is if you have enough room to even move...
9) Read
I know.. to those of you who hate reading (which is me), this would probably be the last thing I would do... But, sometimes it may really help you get your mind off things so give it a try then throw it out of the car.
10) Knit or Cross stitch
I tried knitting in my last road trip and surprisingly it helped a lot to make time fly by!! Also in the end of the trip I even had a scarf!! It's like hitting two birds with a stone? BTW I never tried cross stitching yet its just an idea, but it may get messy. SO! I recommend trying to knit! For the girls... or even guys if they like or are interested in knitting
11) Talk or start a conversation
This is really helpful when you have nothing else to do... especially for the driver since that is all they can do, which is talk... It may also help the driver stay awake and not be bored, because if they are bored it leads to sleeping which is VERY DANGEROUS!! Wait.. but it may also be dangerous if the driver doesn't focus on the road, Hmm.. well at least you are not bored?

12) Nails
Since, you have a whole lot of time why not do your nails or help others do their's. Plus, since you can't do much in a car you will not screw up your nails! Although.. this idea is probably going to stink up the car but at least you will have beautiful nails!~
13) Bother someone
Another way to be entertained... The other person would probably be annoyed, but at least you are having FUN! OH! and remember to bring a marker (preferably permanent) so when one falls asleep you can just draw a mustache on their faces and you will be laughing the whole ride, because they can't wash it off in a car!! ( well unless they make a pit stop.)
14) Rubik's cube
Trying to figure out puzzle things are a great way to waste time! When you are finished you are probably almost there! Well, unless you actually know the trick.. then you are no fun!
15) Draw or sketch
It will probably be ugly since the car shakes a lot, but you may also create a new kind of art, like a shaking master piece! Hahaha.. get it? (or not..)
16) Play I-spy
If you have nothing to talk about play i- spy , it entertains you and make you realize the pretty scenery. But remember don't be a sore loser and cheat and change the object you are describing!!
So now you can enjoy your road trips! But, REMEMBER NOT TO DRINK TOO MUCH WATER (even though people say water is good for you, but not on a road trip) UNLESS, you want to pee in a porta potty which is very dirty and smelly because no one ever cleans it and its like peeing in a hole!! ( which really sucks for us girls... especially ones that cannot squat to pee.. (me) and have to sit....just by thinking about it ew.... ) Or even worse YOU MAY HAVE TO PEE IN A BUSH!! ( although it is good for the bush because, it gives it more nutrition.. BUT EMBARRASSING FOR YOU!!) Therefroe.. good luck on surviving the ROAD TRIP and have a safe trip to those who are going on one too!!~
