Well it takes few months to find out if your H1 is approved or not. Now the gap between Opt expiration and H1, you will not have any status therefore you could join a kaplan university or something  OR you could go to nepal. I went to Nepal for a month. However INS will give you 60 days (NOT 2 months) to prepare for packing. Now you will be lucky if Oct 1ST lies within the 60 days then you are all set.

IF NOT ENJOY YOUR VACATION BACK HOME.
