I made a very responsible choice today
#that was: fighting the urge to boom the premium economy fare for my flight to London lmao#*book#me last night: it’s only [redacted] more!#me today: self that is an insane amount of money to spend for a 6 hour flight#I am a little butthurt that my economy ticket for London round trip is what I paid for premium economy round trip to Paris :(#i maaaaaaay splurge to book an exit row seat though

absolutely wretched thought. what if I made alex wake up post dreamish so far back that they're still in the fucking bering sea
#mine#dreamish#alex!five#having the mother of all nervous breakdowns on a boat 100 miles offshore#it's not that far back. like an extra month or so pre grey#but the added zest of being back on a big fucking boat? hoo lawd#call up the tender boat to do them a favor because they need to book a direct flight to london so fucking fast

My bank: Can't authorise this payment lmao also good luck getting through to customer support!
#every time i try to book flights to/from japan they're like hmm this seems suspicious#which i would get but they know i live in japan#i'm paying for internet in japan with that account and also use it to buy stuff from japanese websites#ffs#this whole situation is so horrible and stressful as it is why do they have to make my life more difficult :(#also stressed bc i've never flown with air china but i've heard bad things about them and yet they're the only flights available#and i'll have to fly from narita which i've never been to and into london gatwick which is a pain in the arse to get to#i just want it to be january 5th already so this is all over and i'm back to work and life is normal and moving forward again

So I'm supposed to be in London tomorrow for a 9am meeting. Just went to check my ticket which I specified I wanted to arrive at 8am for..... and it departs at 11:35pm and gets me there....... the day after my appointment 🤦♀️
#ace is a mess#travel tag#so glad i checked but fck my life im screwed#theres nothing i can do this late#im panic looking rn but i dont think its an option id checked a couple of hours before? who knows#i can get a flight thatll cost over £100 thatll get me there on time.... but i have no way to get to the airport cus i live in a stupid tow#im gonna cry of course this would happen i cant correct my ticket because the correct coach is now sold out obviously#might need to book another visa appointment and pay for all new travel 😭#*edit: ive booked another coach. itll get me to london 10 minutes before my appointment and then i still have to travel to the embassy#but i cant book another appointment while i have an existing appointment and although a flight would get me there in time#i cant get to the fcking airport cus i cant drive and theres no travel options this late cus im an idiot#aaah shoulda checked earlier god this whole summer camp process has been too stressful i need a coma

#I want to be excited to go to Bordeaux#and I am#but I’m also really anxious#I have to make three flight transfers#(grad school city) -> London -> Madrid -> Bordeaux#which makes me terrified my luggage is going to get lost#and if/when I get there#apparently there’s a transportation workers’ strike#so I have no clue if I’ll be able to take the tram from the airport to where I’m staying#it’s an archive I’ve never used#and my French reading is really good. I can do books and sources and all of that#but it’s been so long since I’ve actually spoken French in any sustained way#plus I spent so much of the summer in Portugal speaking Portuguese#I’m nervous I won’t communicate well and will make a fool of myself with the archive staff or in a shop#intellectually I know that’s not the end of the world#but it’s still humiliating#my time of the month also decided to show up today#which is making me extra nervey and miserable#I know the best thing I can do for myself is take it one step at a time#but that’s easier said than done#not the stones#me stuff#I’m probably going to end up doing orals reading on the flight b/c I can never sleep on planes

I recently finished Babel by RF Kuang, and then I read Evil Eye by Etaf Rum.
I haven’t stopped crying since 🥲.
#at least in spirit .#these two books read on a 7 hr flight from London to Boston .#killed me#i literally can’t think about anything else#looking for a support group#half joking Lolol#babel an arcane history#babel or the necessity of violence#Babel: Or the Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution#evil eye etaf rum

#personal#standing ticket in london is like £160 and in milan its like £40#and i can get a flight to milan for £35 like make it make sense#im scared of getting concert withdrawals after bbx last week so im trying to see whats around#i dont really want to/cant afford to see another bas tour this week#but i dont have anything booked until nov and everything in the uk is so expensive now 😭#i mean at least if i went to milan i could make an actual holiday out of it work keep telling me i need to take some time off lol

So I booked a Eurostar from [home] to London, and did not think that through because -- well. I'll be at my parents' after the Munich show. Munich - London is, right now, around 67€ booking directly through Lufthansa, for a 2 hour flight. My parents' - Munich is free (thanks, Deutschlandticket.)
My parents' - my place is, booking right now, around 30€ for 7-8h. Home - Eurostar is, booking right now, between 25 - 50€ for 1.5h.
Why the fuck did I book the Eurostar??
#Seriously considering letting that inbound ticket be#and booking the flight#which is a good chunk of money wasted but at least I'd still save on time#and the money is gone either way#or I could shift the whole trip into the future and go another time with this pair of tickets#and book a new return ticket from London#hmmmm#the boyfriend is in favour of that plan too

Once again I have messages and asks to reply to that I haven't got round to yet because last couple of weeks have honestly been hella stressful but I promise I'm not ignoring you; I just haven't recovered enough to respond yet.
#i'm flagging big time ngl#sorting the whole trip back to the uk has been exhausting#haven't even finished booking flights yet and i still have to get a train ticket from london to my city#and then either tell my bf i can't stay that night bc being a bridesmaid i have to stay over at the wedding venue#or tell my friend i can't stay over the night before the wedding bc it's been 10 months since i saw my bf and cats and i wanna cuddle them#why does my life always seem to involve having to choose which person to disappoint#i honestly feel like life right now is just throwing me choices that involve losing either way instead of winning#it's never like. trying to choose between chocolate cake and salted caramel ice cream where both options are a win#it always feels like choosing between having my hand cut off or my foot cut off#and when i tell people this they're just like 'but you shouldn't see it that way! it's so sad that you choose to view it like that.'#so yeah i'm exhausted because i'm depressed and poor and stressed out about going back to the uk#just wanna sleep for a week but noooooo#at least this week is fairly light. short commute relatively easy classes and i like the staff i share the classroom with

you know what? i am just so glad that we dont have to worry about the climate crisis anymore. apparently it has all been resolved and honestly, it is so so good to see that everything is normal and the world makes sense. i have to see my thesis supervisor in january. a flight from hamburg to stuttgart with a stopover in munich is both cheaper and quicker than a train ticket for the same dates 6 weeks from now. it just makes sense! i swear it makes sense. haha 😀 i could fly to london ON FRIDAY (that is the day after tomorrow) for €28,39 (granted, with ryanair, or i could wait until next week and fly with a real airline, BA, for €60 😃) but it would cost me anywhere from €12 to €25 just to get to the airport half an hour from my house. (half an hour by car that is. two hours by train lmao) i was also thinking about visiting my dad sometime between xmas and new years. sure, it's a busy travel week, so €121,80 for two train tickets doesn't seem too bad, right? only for €137 i can book a return flight with lufthansa. and that's 50 minutes on a plane vs 4+ hours on a train. �� what a world we live in! i mean honestly, they could PAY me €137 and i still wouldn't book a domestic flight. this is germany, not fucking australia. but please explain to me how any of this makes sense. you cant. because it doesnt. but yeah. it's even more infuriating with intra-european travel, and especially travel between mainland europe and the uk. like isn't it so wonderful that the channel tunnel is treated like some sort of carnival ride and you have to include 1-2 hours of check-in time in your itinerary because eurostar have delusions of grandeur and make you take off your shoes airplane style and also close their ticket gates 30 min before departure so they can sell you overpriced coffee and sandwiches? isnt that fun? like come on be serious for a moment. its a train. choo choo bitch why is your platform walled off? it shouldn't take a degree in international relations and 5-7 years professional experience in passenger transport for me to book a train from redacted germany to london england and yet here we are. i mean right now you can't even book eurostar trains via deutsche bahn directly lmao, and if you do a silly little preisermittlung, DB will charge you more for the eurostar train than what you'd pay if you booked the eurostar train directly on the eurostar website (rofl even) so of course you buy two separate tickets. but then if you arrive late in amsterdam or brussels or paris and maybe get stuck in the security or uk border control lines eurostar will just close the gates on you and go whoopsie ha ha bummer you have two separate tickets did you really think 2 hours transfer time was enough lol. and even if all of your trains happen to be on time and you do make the connection in a-dam/brussels/paris, you have to be so generous with your planning that you end up turning what could have been a 7 hour train journey into a day-long ordeal.
#this is not a hypothetical scenario btw#i went to london multiple times in 2019/20 and got stuck in brussels TWICE#the first time they said fuck you#i had to book a new ticket for the next day and get a hotel#the second time i got lucky and they just put me on the next train#like i am a certified plane hater#i am a licensed train lover#i actually WOULD be willing to pay a small premium if the experience was genuinely good I WANT THIS TO BE GOOD I WANT IT TO BE GOOD SO BAD#I WANT it to be a PROPER alternative to air travel#i want to be able to RECOMMEND it to people#but if its between this#and a 90 minute flight that is also cheaper??#like come on#anyway#this wasn't meant to turn into a rant#also gemma and diana if youre reading this#i know its been 86 years (well. one and a half) since we planned this trip but i really hope that i can make it happen soon#ish#🥴#&
