Ok so, yes next week I will be heading to Vegas...as in Vegas, NV. The city where hang overs and crazy shiz happens. Then again, not everyone who goes ends up finding a short naked asian man in the trunk of their car. So, I'm trying to see that I don't over pack especially since I'm only going for a few days. 3 glorious days I should say. 3 glorious days that will be the best 3 days of this year! Ok, so now that I have composed my self...the point of this post...the top 10 things to not pack when going to Vegas for only 3 days are:
1. TOWELS - that's what hotels are for! Why bother taking up like half of your lougage space with some huge ass towel that you are probably not even going to use? Not to mention you will probably end up bugging the hell out of housekeepers for towels. They will probably hate you by the end of the weekend.
2. BOOZE - hello it's Vegas! Booze is pretty much oozing out of the streets around anybody in Vegas. You can probably just get drunk from breathing in the air there. Just saying. Not to mention you might get detained at the airport and be called a terrorist.
3. BOOKS - Ok incase you haven't realized it, the year is 2012. AKA...you need to upgrade when it comes to technology. Buy an eReader. They are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy less than they were before. Not to mention books add weight to your luggage and take up space that your heels could be taking up instead and the chances of you reading that book on a plane is like 10%.
4.LAPTOPS - Ok so yes a laptop is pretty much my life because well the internet is one of my bff's but not to the point where I will actually need it because to be honest, who has time to get online while being in Vegas?? Come on people! It's Vegas! We have no time to sit down and check out facebook statuses! That's why you buy a smart phone and update your crazy drunken nights via mobile! And then once you get back you realize what an idiot you were the whole weekend! It's what I call the awesome cycle of vegas vaca's. ;)
5. CURLING IRON - No you will not need a curling iron... first of all when you are in a club I don't recall there being any signs of AC's around. Just pure B.O. and sweat! Yep, that measn that A, you are probably going to have a puff ball of hair or B, straight as hell hair by the end of the night. Just leave the curling iron alone before you hurt your self.
6. BLANKETS - No, you will not, I repeat No BLANKETS! Believe it or not people actually pack blankets for a 3 day weekend when clearly not only are you staying at a HOTEL but you are also not camping. Not to mention you wont be doing a whole lot of sleeping in Vegas, just a heads up on that.
7. CIGARRETTES - Ok aside from the point that smoking kills, you don't need them in Vegas. If you really want to smoke you can just step outside or into a casino for that fact and it's FREE! Yes free...just inhale the air around you when you get to Vegas. It's as easy as that. So why bother throwing in a huge ass box of cigarettes??
8. BATH SALT - Yes, rediculous and random as it sounds, people want to take bath salf where ever they go. Yes, it makes your skin extra soft and smell good, but really?? Come on, please don't make me take it away from you and flush it down the toilet.
9. EXTRA SOCKS - Ok, I don't know about you but personally, who uses socks after winter? Unless you are wearing sneakers or boots you should not be wearing socks. If socks are involved you should only have one pair in your whole bag. Not 3 or 4 or 5 but just ONE! Who knows...you could be using that space for more important things...like condoms.
10. SOAP - Now don't get me wrong, I like to be clean but what hotel now in days doesn't carry soap? They pretty much want you to take it from them especially when they leave so many next to the sink. So yes that is code for don't pack soap that you could pretty much save for at home uses.
So now that we have these 10 things taken cared of I hope you think aboutn what you are packing next time and not have to get annoyed on that last day of your trip because your bag doesn't close. It's ok, we have all been there. ;) Reality is, we still end up over packing. It's a cruel, cruel world.
