I have aCD player and CDs, a laptop. And I have a 2 hour drive along with it.Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Two hours? You'll be fine. Half hour of that is take off, half hour of that is landing, so you only have one hour in the air. That's one CD and half a movie. You won't even get to your book.

I'm taking a 15 hour flight in a few weeks. Feel bad for me! Even if I sleep the regular 8 hours, I still have 7 hours left!

Answer 2

Try something new: choose something to memorize.
Make it something you would LOVE to be able to recall instantly, such as a favorite inspirational verse or poem or passage from a book.
I like to memorize helpful lists, such as Thomas Leonard's "Twelve Ways To Approach A Problem." (I had to peek to find the last two.)
1) Ignore it or deny that you're having a problem
2) Have a bigger problem
3) Break the problem into smaller chunks
4) Outsource to experts
5) Ask others for a solution or to help you with the problem
6) Find, invent, discover or use a tool or solution
7) Master the key skill sets
8) Monetize the solution
9) Install consequences
10) Make the problem worse
11) Stop having problems
12) Recognize the perfection in the situation
If you choose something to memorize that would actually be useful to you (a list of spelling words that give you trouble?) you can change your life during that two hour plane ride. Good luck, and enjoy the flight!

Answer 3

Two hours isn't that long on the plane. I've spent 9 hours in the air to Hawaii and more than that to Paris.

Sleep. Rest up for your adventures. Listen to your tunes. Read your books. Play 'Solitaire' on your laptop (but remember, you have to turn off the Internet before the plane takes off).

After take off, the lovely flight attendants will come around with beverages and snacks. Before you know it, it'll be close to landing time. Two hours will be nothing. If you finish your book, read the In-Flight magazines.

I highly recommend taking a snooze. Jet lag is not fun.

I'd sleep in the car as well, unless you're driving of course. Or you can read up on your travel destination. Again, listen to your music and stare out the window at the new scenery.

Answer 4

You have all that and you think you'll be bored after 2 hours? RELAX. You're not going to be locked in a box by yourself for 2 hours. There are people. There are windows. There are snacks. Calm down and just enjoy the flight.

Answer 5

Suduku puzzles, read those airline magazines, take a book. Actually 2 hours is not a bad flight. Try 12 hours from Texas to Australia.

I've been on 22 hour road trips-all I really did is sleep though....You could read a book, stare mindlessly out the window, write something, or listen to a CD. (Let's just hope it works better for you than it did for me-I puked.)
