PACKING LIST FOR MOVING TO ANOTHER COUNTRY

Hello!

Now that everything is finalized, I can say without hesitation that I'll be moving to Boston this month, to pursue my Masters' in Science Journalism!

Background: *screams* woohooooo

Therefore, I started writing a list of the things I would have to take. I researched and found no proper packing list which was suitable for students (especially) who are moving to another country. And then it flashed - what if I make a packing list and put it in my blog? *pats self*

So, here it is!
I wracked my brain and wrote this list which includes stuff for both men and women (mostly women, I must say).
Feel free to download it or take a printout and check off the things you have taken.

Hope it helps!



A couple of things before I sign off -

1) I am a stationery freak, so I included that section. Please ignore it if you don't intend to take any. But I must say that it is better to take the basic stuff, because stationery will obviously be expensive where you're going.

2) Coming to the kitchenware, I heard that they do not allow pressure cookers now (not really sure). And of course, all the Indian Stores will have all the utensils and even the sambhar/rasam powders (again, it's my hunch. It all depends on the country you're going to. USA - yes, they do have it, but it's better to be prepared).

3) It may seem far-fetched but trust me, you'll need it. And also make sure your suitcase is not over 23 kilograms!


Have fun packing!!

Stay Healthy and Happiee,

Love,

Vivacious Inspirit.

UPDATE - The Hell! I forgot to add the most important thing! Sanitary napkins! Shit! *runs to the list*

I LOST MY PHONE

Disclaimer - I am writing about Android phones. I have no idea about iPhone, except that it also has 'Find my iPhone' app in it. So what do you do when you lose your phone? If this is your first time losing it, then you better hurry. AND it will really help if you've turned on the location and internet in your phone. Trust me. It will be worth it. If you have not, then please say goodbye to your phone. I'm sorry for your loss. By sheer luck (I don't know what else to call it) if you have turned on the location and the internet, then  - 1. Borrow your friend's phone and install the app 'Find My Device' from Play Store. 2. Sign in as a guest by entering your email address. The app will locate your phone. 3. If you have just misplaced it or dropped it nearby, you can hurry and reach your device. But, if someone has stolen it (yes, there are people who still steal mobile phones. It is 2018 and apparently this has nothing to do with people...

Judgemental.

Hello.... Yeahhh, I know I said I would blog whenever I can and here I am! So today I'm going to talk about judging people. Do you know when that moment when we see a person, a stranger and we just observe them.... For a while....?? ( yes,mostly when we are jobless) And we tend to make split second decisions about them by seeing their behavior?? Yes. That. We have to stop doing that. I was at a petrol bunk once. Waiting to air the tyres... And before me was a person, maybe 30 years or more?? I don't know since he was wearing a helmet. Anyway,we're waiting and he went before me... And told the person to change the air pressure.. You know there's a definite air pressure for the front and back wheels of a bike and its mostly 28 and 32... He asked him to change the pressure. There was a long line behind us and I wanted to reach home early... So I was kind of mad that he asked to change the pressure. I thought, 'wow,this man is so rude! Can't he see the lin...

A MONTH

Helloooooo, It's been a month and 10 days! I am so sorry I kept you waiting... 😛 I seriously never thought that so many things could happen in a month. One month!  Just 30 days! 4 weeks!! Come on!! What can happen in a month you say? Well, let me tell you... The past month (or so) was.... I dont have a word for it (maybe I never will)  but I do have a whole lot of expressions. For example - " gahhhhhh "  or " bleghh " or " rawrrrr " or maybe all of them? Lol... It was a frustrating month. It still is. Kind of. There are so many lessons I've learned and have my eyes opened in ways I cannot imagine. (lol again) 1.) Nobody, nobody , NOBODY can love you more than your parents. (there are exceptions, of course. Some people who adopt a child or guardians who look after kids like their own. These people are all included in my point.) You should be grateful each and every day to have your mom waiting for you at home, cooking you hot m...
