Take off your shoes, put them and your jacket and your wallet in a bin. The computer goes in it's own bin, the bag goes alone, the guitar goes all alone (poor dearie). Walk through.... BEEP BEEP BEEP
Yup, airports the most gloriously hated places in the world. Sure, they get you to your destination, but every year it gets worse and worse! And alas, today I am in one... right now, sitting here.... all I can hope is that the plane ride will be quiet and warm enough to sleep and that my flight doesn't get delayed again. BU since I love lists so much I have a list of things to entertain you at airports! (and planes).
NUMBER ONE:
Bring technology! we live in a highly technological age, most airports have free wifi and mostly everything can connect to wifi so bring your computer, iPod, iPad, tablet or wifi enabled teddy bear and enjoy the gloriously time consuming power of the internet. Do things like read blogs (like mine!) or write a blog post, or stumble, or see how many clicks it takes to get from sardines to Hitler on Wikipedia(which is surprisingly entertaining).
TWO:
Listen to music!
Remember that technology you had earlier? yeah, remember that it can play music too. You can sit there listening to the soothing sounds of death metal while the world passes you by. BUT make sure you are still able to listen to the airline announcements, that is the only way you can be sure that you get on when you need to.
THREE:
Reading!
Remember what that is? you know, from a book? My suggestion is bring something light, something that doesn't require too much focus or is too heavy. You need to be able to listen and watch what is going on around you, something too engrossing could prove terrible (like this one time, when i was the last one to get on the plane because the book i was reading was so good).
FOUR:
Knitting or amigurumi, see i used to sew on planes, but then they decided that needles weren't safe and whatnot so now bring a plastic knitting needle and sit down calmly, you've got time, limited space and nothing else to do.
I would give you more but alas, its time to get onto the plane, byes!
