Last minute happiness

The last 48 hours had been nothing for me but drama. Every hour, new information came in and the direction to go Mumbai will change. I tried to steer the direction towards myself not going with excuses like having no business visa, missing my EY free movie (which happens only once a year), parents dun feel safe (i created that effect) n having to stay in a bombed hotel (taj). N so just 1.5 hours before my plane took off just now, i cancelled my check in, changed my flight ticket, cancelled my hotel transport n changed the dates of my hotel stay for the 5th time. Then stopped packing. Yes, i have just officially postponed my trip to next Tuesday instead. In the meantime, i will have some time to think of more excuses not to go.

And the best part was, the reason why our indian boss insisted that i went was because "we need someone honest on the ground to tell us exactly what's going on over there". So much for trusting our colleagues in India... n since the boss is from there, i'm sure he knows best.
