chronicles of my mexico trip - part 6: my first night

the plane landed at 7:20. my crushee boss promised that he would try to pick me up at the airport. but that promise was made before all the mess up with the transit visa. they had a meeting with SEARS on the day of my arrival and i wasn't counting on it anymore.

shux.

imagine being exhausted from 40hr total time to get to mexico and being anxious with all the upcoming pressure. i couldn't walk. i was the last passenger to leave the plane, still wishing that i was elsewhere. i was hoping for a divine intervention, or at least an alien abduction to calm my nerves.

no miraculous light shone up, and i have no choice but to go on.

the immigration officer talked to me in spanish. i gathered all my strengths and silently repeated the line when i feel so dumb and helpless. blsm, di ka nagcum laude sa UP para magpatalo ng ganyan.blsm di ka nagcum laude sa UP para magpatalo ng ganyan. i answered all queries of the immigration officer in spanish. whew!

this is a brand new blsm, ready to conquer mexico.

and really, all it takes is little push, and good things don't cease to happen.

MY CRUSHEE BOSS PICKED ME UP. he was there!

he went straight to the airport after their meeting. he saw me at the currency shop and said, "there you are!".. those are the three most beautiful words i heard ever since i boarded the train to the hk airport. he said the traffic was bad and that his cab encountered some problem so it took him quite a while to get to the airport. he was relieved when he found me.

haay, true love. true love. and "that" is what you call destiny.

we're alone in the cab, and i inquired about his next job in macau. i didn't pretend anymore, and i said "it's so sad, you leaving" in my saddest tone. he said he was surprised since he doesn't expect any one from the office missing him since because he doesn't get along socially with the others.

i was really sad, not just because he's my crush. but i consider him one of my good colleagues, and that's one person less to help me cope with this job.

but hey, i don't have to think about that now, do i? i have the next 10 days with him, and i just have to make the most out of it.

we went straight to the hotel and we had our dinner. i checked in at my room, and woo! nice! lovely hotel! and i got it to all to myself! i was at bed at around 12midnight.

have to wake up at 4am since we're leaving for monterrey at 5:30am.

and darn jet lag! waaahhh! i couldn't sleep! sheeesh.
