After picking up the other coworker we take the route 40 and drive to San Juan. This route goes parallel to the Andes mountains. On the sides there are vineyards and olive crops.

We arrived to San Juan at noon then we went to the hotel to let our things and moved to the trade show to set our stand. When we found our spot it was not in the same place than the plane that we had. They changed the blueprints without tell us and sent our stand in a corner in front of one competitor. I claimed to the people who organized the trade show and they gave me a bigger stand for the same price that we paid, so it was a win.

Weather was 90ºF and the site was very very vey hot. My coworkers sweat so much but they didn't smell :D

This is how our stand looked after we organized it:


We did our best to make it looks good although the problems I had to deal with while sales manager and boss's daughter were organizing this show. If you wonder what our company sell, we sell industrial bolting systems. I love these tools :)

Outside the place there where an exhibition of machinery for mining. The caterpillar was really big but this model is not the bigest they sell.

We left the place and went to buy food to a shopping mall by 4 pm. There was a store which sell things from other countries but sadly they didn't have any others markers or pens. After lunch we went to the hotel and I settled in my room.

Since I had to work in designs I went to the lobby of the hotel and started to work in my tablet. My coworkers joined me and every one were working in something.

We had dinner in a small restaurant which is in the other side of the street. I wanted to continue designing but I was so tired that I went to sleep.

Hello guys, I'm still alive. Last days I had no chance to update my journal so now I'm sitting in the rstaurant of the hotel drinking coffee and ready to write. On weekend I was busy packing clothes and everything what I needed for the trip. I bought a new keyboard for my tablet and shoes very comfortables because if my foot hurt I wont wear high heels the 3 days.

On Monday I got up at 5 am after just 4 hours of sleep. It supposed that my coworker was piking me at 6 am but he arrived at 8 am. I didn't complain because he took a shower before left his home so that was a win. We drove for 14 hours and he didn't smell so I'm right when I say that his smell is because lack of hygiene. I have to say that he did his best not to be creepy. The driving tok so long because one of the routes was losed and we had to take another route, and because I drank 5 cups of coffee and so much water so I had to use the restroom every 1 hour lol.

We arrived to Mendoza at 10.30 pm. The hotel was fine, simple but very clean. My coworker who already know the employees from the hotel becuse all the previous trip that he did, asked to the girl for a room for me with view to the mountain, so I got a room in the 7th floor. I settled then we went to eat. Dinner was burgers, I'm not fan of eating out but nothing that I can do about that. We came back to the hotel at midnight and I went to my room very sleepy wishing can rest but I had to work in some designs. Because I forgot to ask the wi-fi password I had to connect to my computer at home using my iPhone so I designed in the screen of the phone :(

Oh while we were driving, all my customers were mailing or messaging me to give me more designs to do. Also my hosting went off for a while and emails were not working. When I tried to send a ticket to my provider for he fix this, I entered to a zone without signal so I had to wait to get connection again and send the ticket. It was so stressful! That night I designed until 1 am then my mind stopped working and I decided to sleep.

Next day I woke up at 6 am and open the window to see the mountan, it was still dark. I ook a shower, get dressed and I went downstair to ask the wifi password and work in th designs. At 8 am I went to my room and I could see the mountains. Then i knocked the door of the room where my coworker slept, not signals of him. I went to the restaurant to have breakfast. My coworker came 1 hour after. We waited for another coworker who lives in that province for he come to the hotel to joined us then we left to our final destination.

I need to get some satisfaction from this stressful trip so I researched some places to visit there. Some places are in the center of the city, like the museums, so I can walk over there. Others are away and I'll need my coworker to drive me there. I could go to vineyards but I hardly ever drink wine so I prefer to use my time to see something that I like more.

Yesterday after work when I got home I was soooo tired that I fell asleep. One or two hours later I woke up, I cooked for today then I went to bed again. So today I was not so sleepy!

Day at work was quiet so I could design a banner for the mining trade show. the trade show is from 18 to 20th April in San Juan, and they will send me there with 2 sellers. I've never been there. It's an area of valleys and mountains. The main economic activity is winemaking and mining.  If I'm lucky maybe I can visit places around. There is so much I have to do to get ready and it seems I'll be almost alone to do everything (as usual). My coworker is going to Italy one week before the trade show and sales manager will be on vacation so this mean that I have to do all the work on sales department plus all the organization of the trade show without help. 

In the other hand I'll have work to do at home. I sold another website and also there is another person who wants a website and logo for his project :)

When I got home I was not so sleepy so I did washing, washing up and I mopped the floor. This make me feel good, I didn't waste the evening. I ate pizza then I did online shopping. I bought new bands and I am thinking about to buy 10lbs weights.

 I got the airport 1 hour ago and did the check-in. There are a lot of people today but anyway the line was fast. My flight will leave from gate 4.
I'm drinking a latte in Mc Donalds and reading Sherlock Holmes while I wait to 3.30 am to go to the gate. 
First flight is from Buenos Aires to Lima (Perú), then I have to wait 1 hour to take the next flight from Lima to Orlando. I will arrive at 4pm. Michael will get Orlando in few hours and go to the hotel to do the check-in and sleep before go for me.
I want take a pill for the bloody headache but since it is because muscles I don't have any kind of pills for this. So when I get the flight to Orlando I will take alprazolam, maybe this will make my muscles relax.

Finally I slept a lil more... 6:30 hours but still I didn't pack. I'm going to do the check-in today, I'm getting anxious!!

Im testing the ultra matte lipstick of Colourpop in some nude color, so far 9 hours usint it and it still stay on. I put vaseline on my lips before apply the lipstick because it will make my lips get very dry. This is a good tip and works fine. I could not take any decent pic of my lips with this stupid cell phone 97.gif

Just few hours left to be on vacations, I can't wait! 146fs495919.gif

I can't say how stressed we are this last months. I'm literally on panic about everything, about what he tell me, about what he doesn't tell me.
I still can't believe he is going to do this with me, I'm afraid he cancel it.
I try to understand his situation and relax myself but god this is so fucking hard wallbash.gif

My projects are going very fine.. websites, make up.. better than I expected, so I wonder if the trip are going to fail. I'm not so lucky so...
Anyway I keep focus in projects, workout and I'm trying to learn how the hell I can make a decent make up with all the stuff I have.

I don't know what is going to happens but I took a decision... I will enjoy this trip even if my feelings get a little hurted.

15 months ago I had a wish, a dream with Mike. Every night I went to the bed with this dream in my mind but things was not going to be how i expected at all. Too much obstacles, too many people between us, too much panic.
I fought myself to kill this dream but I couldn't kill all that I feel for him.
But then I got a ticket to meet him because I'm not that kind of people who give up



I didn't know this ticket will change my life
