It's actually late right now and I should be sleeping, but the sound of my roommate snoring just keeps me awake all night. My god!, does this guy ever gets peacefully sleep?!, I bet a giant dinosaur could be attacking the city right now and he wouldn't notice!
They assign me whit this creepy-weird guy from the pharmaceutical company assisting on my work. I hadn't seeing him before, so it was quite a shock when they told me I had to spent almost a month living whit him...(and GOD!, I hope to get some sleep during this month!), they also said he is one of the "important guys" so I had to obey him somewhat during this period of time, there shouldn't be much of a problem about it since we are here only to collect some documents from different organizations and nothing more than that. I guest he is no lame but I hardly think he is one of the top guys.., I dunno.., there's something sneaky about him sometimes it makes me feel uneasy.
The only real problem so far is he's particular annoying "trademark", he has a very particular voice, like so acute it sound awful, and his blue eyes and blond disarranged hair makes me think about a bird every time I see him... even so he is not that bad, sometime we can talk for hours about stupid subjects non related to work, they didn't told me his name tough, and wen I asked him he said I could call him "John Doe", no doubt it's a fake name, I really can't think about a reason why he would hide his real name to me, but if it makes him feel better beats me...
Now comes to think, he is very protective about his image too, I have the camera right here, since we where supposed to visit some fancy places I couldn't miss some shots for my personal album, but every time I take a picture he cover's the lent, also, it seems he has found a way to keep the camera out of him by taking it and picturing me...not that I mind though, actually, I almost never have any picture of myself, so I gust that's the reason why I haven't taked off my camera from him so far...
But let's talk about the trip shall we?
We had to take the plain together, the airport was the first time we saw each other, then, we went to the hotel, I must admit I don't get this place, it's a very sophisticated building, but it has only ONE big room for all, no bedrooms or living room, no, all together, to change clothes I've got to get inside the bathroom, and there isn't any kitchen neither...it's like they supposed you are only having your meals on a restaurant...not that I mind, the work covers all the expenses of the trip, but it's odd to have like 4 meals always on restaurant's...my-my, I miss my kitchen...
Anyway, first day we had to go to the mall, the city it's not as half as big as home, but it works, it has a theater, some restaurants and pools, there's also a small records store...

I must admit I had a good time, but the second day was off, so we spent the entire day doing nothing on the hotel (as you can see he had my camera already). The view it's simply wonderful, you can see almost the entire city from here (it's not like it's a BIG city...but the view it's still grate).


The third day (that means today), it was a completely different story... We had to take a filthy bus and then a train to get a small town named Kijuju on west side, the heat was awful, I simply couldn't breath, and the smell on the streets and train station

...man, it was like traveling back on time to the middle age...all the few buildings made of concrete were all like abandoned and full of graffiti, junk and cars scattered all over, worst mess I've seeing in time...besides the people wasn't very friendly neither, they look like they're gonna spit right onto your face or something...my god, I hope we don't have to do business here again, really, I do...

What I don't get was why we where supposed to be there in the first place, they told me it was all about some documents (very important documents I guest for sending 2 people to get them to the other side of the globe) we had to collect on that area, but as soon as we got there "John" told me to wait on the entrance of a filthy wooden house and it came back a few minutes later without any papers on his hands and said it was all done...it seemed odd at the time but I was happy to get back to the hotel as soon as possible, get a shower and some sleep...man...it's like too late now...and I haven't slept at all...
Well, hope to keep on touch from here...
Best for all!
