I have lived out of a suitcase since I was 10 years old (I grew up in a boarding school, but I will tell you about that later). This evening I have to pack my suitcase (again) for a business trip to Sydney. Business trips sound glamourous, but they are really quite boring; they are not much more than an extension of a rush hour commute. Instead of spending 1.5hrs on your way to work, you spend 9hrs (including your beauty sleep) on a comfortable, 1st class treatment to your office.
For 2 days.
That is the reality of business trips. It is neither glamourous, nor wonderful. For any graduates who are thinking of getting into an industry that invovles "International Travel", I want to stress that often you spend 3hrs+ at airports getting from A to B, you are expected to go to the office even after a 9hr flight, and that there are no showers on board... even on 1st Class.
Living out of a suitcase sucks!

Well my dear DWF, why don't you start your second business? Buy cosmetics cheaper outside and sell in Japan. Try to find positive side:-) Yeah, enjoy your mileage programmes.
hiiiiiiiii mizzzzzzzzziiiiieeeeeee!
yeah... there are places that I could live that are worse than my suitcase. But the thing is that I would *prefer* to live in my own little place.
hmm... maybe I really should invest in a nice, personal, expensive suitcase.
Nah, scrap that thought!!
