What seemed impossible became true!
Can you imagine?? The men showed up at the bus station with my passport, at 9 in the morning today, just before i was about to enter the Brazilian embassy. Dolphin said she still have to tell me the story. I will not be able to meet them, since they are not
in Shenyang anymore. So, i also was kinda lucky today, like something related to good timing. I arrived at the embassy at 8.45 (surprised with my good orientation, i just needed to look up twice in the map, after going out of the metro station). There are already people waiting. I checked the block, embassies only, the one from the kuait was the nicest, not bad. Waiting outside in the cold, until i was the next in the line. Then a couple, he brazilian, she chinese come in just like this, without waiting in the line. Hum, actually after that i figured out, i am at the Brazilians embassy, i am brazilian, why do i have to be waiting with the other chinese applying for visa, when my issue is with the passport section anyway. So, if i was half an hour faster in entering the embassy, i would probably just have signed the document of lost of passport by the time i receive Dolphins call, with the good news.
Hey, what a history, kinda unbelievable. It was a bit late, but not to late, since i saved some money anyway, and a good amount of bureaucracy work.
Could only buy a ticket to Sy on Wednesday, the fast train, didn't want to take bus or slow one. Would be doing some sightseeing, but it is gray and raining outside.
So, will write some emails, and relax for the moment. Then work later.
