journey: initiated.

I've realized a lot just being away for not even nearly a week. The things that seemed so important Tuesday don't seem to make a tiny bit of difference anymore. Waiting in the San Antonio airport now, all things feel like they have fallen into lace. This is all pre-destined and all situations that WERE have ended for the best and the ones that have started....are all for the better. They truly are behind me and literally miles and miles away and i'm so glad. Saying goodbye was not as hard as I thought it would be. I think because I Was just SO ready to go. Ready for the unknown, stories untold, adventures unraveled. I just want the chance to finally be me away from what other people know me as.

Monterrey, Nueva Leon, MEXICO.

This trip has already proven to be very eventful. I get to the Monterrey airport and they bumped my flight up to 5:00pm instead of 6:30 (YAY), so that means I'll get to Mexico City in the daylight. THEN i head to the ladies' room and I'm on my way to find a place to eat. I find a bar in the middle of my terminal(?) thingy and have a sandwich and coke. I call my mother to check in. I get ready to head to my gate and realize my passport is missing. CHECK ALL POCKETS, no where to be found. FREAKING OUT....I think of the bathroom and run awkwardly towards it. Check all places and NOTHING. In my frenzy I hear.....

Cyntia please come to gate 4 (blah blah blah).

I sigh and go to it. THe bitch looks at me all crazy, like this is the first time it has ever happened and grumpiliy makes me sign my name and hands me my passport.

(sigh of relief)

WHY DO THESE THINGS HAPPEN TO ME? Lesson for Cyntia while in Mexico: STOP FORGETTING IMPORTANT SHIT. These things happen to me seriously so often, at least three hours a day, are dedicated to me frantically searching for shit. FML.

on a lighter note, Eric and I talked about his opportunity to come visit me before he goes to Thailand. Perhaps around the 25th of August...get excited. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Monterry Mountains...love them.
