For every minute spent in organizing, an hour is earned.
Benjamin Franklin
What a hopeful quote, makes me really want to put in more time to organize other parts of my life (although just the sheer horror of other people’s face is motivational enough).
Today, I spent my time preparing for the trip to Japan, it was really fun since I’ve always had a knack for such things. Honestly tough, I feel like I know the area pretty well know since I’ve been scrolling through Google Maps to find the best areas and stuff. Something to work on though, is my nit-picky habit. I really like to scrutinize the details, to the point where I get irrationally mad when things don’t go right. So, for this trip, I kept it more loose, without tight timelines and such. I also had to account for my mom’s tastes too, since she’s also on this trip. We’re like yin and yang, like fire and water, like beans and fruit… we just don’t like the same things. So! With a mind of a mastermind, I attempted to balance the amount of city exploring (aka shopping) and landmark viewing. And so! Here is my itinerary:
It’s pretty meticulous, the places are in order so that it’s convenient to travel, and timing for each event is important as well.
