In the packing notes I am giving a solution that worked for me. It can serve as a reference point for you but you'll probably not have the exact same packing list or organizational logic as me, so just give it a try. It will make you feel really good when you have figured out the most efficient way to pack.

The whole concept of "practicing packing" is funny to me. But if you're gonna get good at anything then you have to practice. After reading the sticky I now know why my bags have a tendency to fall over. It isn't the bag... it's my packing technique. I would put shoes on each end of the bag thus making it unstable. I'm going to practice packing with all the heavier items in the bottom as suggested.
