Asiasource 2005, How did I make it ?

Body

Do I'll be flying to india to attend asia source, A camp co-organized by tacticaltech.org and mahiti.com.
I knew about this on Monday, the 17th of Jan from abdo, Next day, I asked my boss for a vacation to fly to india, He didn't mind.
So Since starting from wednesday it'll be the feast, I wasn't able to do anything till next sunday, I went to the Indian embassy, The guy there refused my papers as I didn't have a signed paper indicating that I'm working somewhere.
I went to the office on that day, Got the paper.
Next day I decided to start looking for a flight and damn! I didn't find a place, I decided to go submit my papers and then look again as i was about to miss the ast time for submitting the papers.
The guy there didn't like it, He said that this paper is NOT stamped, Oh no!.
We finally agreed that he'll proceed and i'll bring him the stamped paper next day.
I sterted looking again, I found a place, from Cairo to Mombai, transit at Bahrain via Gulf Air, Then from Mombay to Bangalore via Air India.
I went to the office, Kept working there till 8 PM to finish some things, Got the paper.
I was there next day, My dad went to the bank to get the money for the ticket, I went to the embassy too gove him the papers, He said come back after an hour and 45 minutes, I went to see what happened to the tickets, Found that the booking was cancelled as I didn't confirm and pay the day before, I told the *pretty* lay there to re-book it and that the money'll be there within 30 minutes, So she did.
OK, Good, payed for the tickets, went back to get the visa, Then came back to get the tickets, We had to pay an extra 300 LE as she miss-calculated the 1st time, It was crowded there and we had to go to the army to get the travelling license "postponed from the military service as I have no brothers.". We were there after driving for more than an hour "yes it's a damn far place".
When you go there you have to leave your car and take a bus, We took the bus and went inside to find that we are late, We had to walk for about 40 minutes in the sun to go back to the car.
We went to another place, They said no, If you are travelling today we'll give it to you, After talking with 5 people they refused, So I decided to go to the office, My father was going back to get the tickets, He was supposed to go home after that, Take a shower and go to the clinic.
I was at the office, Finished all the things I have to do and left at 7:15, Went to buy blank CDs and 2 rewritable CDs, One for me and one for alaa.
I started packing up my things at 3:00 AM. Slept at 5:15, As I was supposed to wake up at 7:30 to go and get the travelling license. I woke up at 8:30 or so, Took a bath and shaved. Went down, I passed by the office to get Youssef's digital camera as I don't trust mine, Gave hm alaa's rewritable, Said bye to Gihan, Abeer, Youssef and Enzo.
I went to take the damn travelling damn thing, It took 15 mnutes or less, Off to the airport.

Now here I'm, I didn't sleep wel the last 3 days, Sitting at the airport writing this and playing frozen bubble on my beloved Nokia 6600, As I didn't find a better thing to do.
I didn't bring anything to read.
Thank god I found electricity here!
