Je arrivé home ^^ >.< :(

Ssssoooo I'm back in Portugal >.<. My uncle was able to get a ticket for the 7th of January from Maputo, Mozambique to Lisbon, Portugal (my original flight was suppose to be on the 5th of January, but because of some other shenanigans, I wasn't able to catch that flight).
My dear cousin Deny took me to the airport, the check in started at 6am, I basically didn't sleep the night before, my flight was at 8:20am. A flight from Lisbon to Maputo, takes about 10 hours, but in this case the airplane made a stop in Johannesburg, South Africa (yeah my 2nd time in South Africa lol), but I had to stay IN the airplane, for like an hour and a half -_- booorriinngg, and then from there straight to Lisbon. The airplane belonged to the Portuguese airlane TAP, but it was one of the older planes, at least comparing to he one that I took from Lisbon to Maputo in early December. The one that I took in December, like everybody had their own personal T.V. monitor, so you could choose whateva you wanted to see, ear, or play, now the airplane that I took 2 days ago, only had like 6 T.Vs. on the middle road, and they showed 1st the News - 1st in Portuguese, then in English - and later 2 Movies - Wall Street 2, and The A-Team - then you had the opition of like 10 radio stations, but since I didn't sleep much, I passed most of the flight napping.
The airplane arrived on time in Portugal, about 19:30ish, the boring part was the waiting for the bags.... some bags came out, the ones that had a red priority sticker on it, but then a Lady from the airport warned us that there was gonna be a delay of like 15 minutes, for the rest of the bags to come -_- aaahhh. And then they started coming, and I waited, and waited, and waited, and I was starting to get nervous and afraid, thinking that maybe my bag got lost >.< but no, aleluia!
My parents came to pick me up, and the we went to Queluz were a cousin of my mother lives, and we stayed for the night. I was soooo tired, I think I went to bed at 11pm, and got out of bed on the next day at 12pm, I wanted to stay longer of course, but I couldn't, 'cause we were leaving to our house later.
Once at home, I unpacked my bags, something that I rarely do once I arrived home, unpacking for me, normally is a 1 week process. But this time, I didn't wanna waste time with that.... just to think that later ths month I will have to pack my bag again to Prague, it drives me crazy >.<.
Now I'm gonna go to bed, tomorrow is Sunday, the Official "Coach Potato Day", I will sleep till as long as I can, recovering. and then try to catch up with the lods of series I was waching before I left...
Although Mozambique has alot of problems (in my point of view) I allready miss that place, and all my Family over there. This time around I spent more time in the South of the country than on the North, the 1st time I went to Mozambique in 2001 I spent 2 months and a half on the North (Pemba) and about 2 week on the South (Maputo), this time it was the other way around, but I only spent 1 month in Mozambique, if it wasn't for the fact that I'm going to Prague in February, I would have stayed longer...
I loved being there, and this time I had more adventures, some that I can not write over here haha :p.
As soon as I get my Laptop situation sorted, I will write some more stuff about my journey. Just for the record, my Laptop's baterry is completly addicted, and my charger fried o_O yeaahh, so all of my pictures are in my Laptop that I took with me to Mozambique. I have another computer at home (Windows XP Professional 2003), it works, but it's sooo slloooowww, it drives me crazy -_-
Well that's all folks, I leave you with a pic of myself at a beach in Murrebué. I guess it's the name of the "city" or whateva..... that was the warmest water that I ever been in, like WOOW, like insanely HOT!

Still in Mozambique...

Hello everyone.... How was your holidays? And the New Year shenanigans? Mine was quite good, quite different, I went to the beach :p. My aunt has a property on a beach in Murrebué, and me plus a whole alot of family spent the night over there, I only slept like 2 hours from 4am till 6am, inside my aunts car. Cause the tends were occupied by the grown ups, and the house, was extremely HOT inside, so me and a cousin of mine took a nap in the car. And we woke up at 6am, cause the sun rises freakin' early, and it was allready hot.
Then I had some problems..... and  Iwasn't able to catch my flight back to Portugal yesterday (5 of January) hhhuuummm yyeaaaahhh :S sssoooooo I'm stuck over here for a while, till my uncle manage to find a way for me to go back, before my Visa expires >.< .
I'm berly gonna stay in Portugal, 'cause in February I start an internship in Prague (Czech Republic). I'm so tired of packing and unpacking -_- .
My laptop is kinda F up right now, the battery is completly addicted :S and the laptop's charger, died x_X ooohhhh lucky me...... My laptop only has a year and 4 months, so is still under warranty (2 years), I just don't know, if the warranty covers the charger's problems :S I really don't feel like spending money, buying a new charger -_- but if I have to, well I HAVE TO, 'cause I will need my Laptop while I'm Prague....
Well that's all for now... since I have alot of stuff to take home, I will probably have to leave some of my clothes behind :S sssooo I start selecting the clothes.... In a way is a good thing, I have a problem with letting go of stuff and clothes, and since it's a new year, is time to make room for some new clothes :D

This is what happens when you go to Mozambique...

What happens is, you have to pay 60€ for a Visa, take 4 vacinnes, plus pay almost 70€ por medicine, that most of them you only take them IF you get sick. Oh yeah believe me I cried, I cried when the Lady from the Pharmacy told me the proce of the medicine.



The one medicine that I HAVE to take without missing, is Mephaquin (Mefloquina), I have to take once a week, starting this week (one week before travelling), the 4 weeks that I'll be there, and then continuing taking for 4 more weeks after I come back to Portugal. 
- Domperidona - In case I feel Nausea or Vomit;
- Loperamida - In case I have Diarrhea -_- ;
- Ciprofloxacina - In case de Loperamida doesn't work, I take these ones that are stonger;
- Redrate - Oral Salts for Hydration , in case I get dehydrated;
- Paracetamol - In case I get a fever;
- Dexaval (Dexametasona) - A cream in case I GET bitten by something,
- Previpiq - An insect repellent, that I have to put on my body thats is not covered by clothes to protect me from the insects (like mosquitos) so they DON'T bite me and suck my blooooood lol.

Besides all these shenanigans, I took 4 vaccines, one of them was repeated (Hipatite A) I had to take 2 shots, the 1st one was in October, and the 2nd shot you take a month later, and I took it today. 
The first time I took the Hipatite A vaccine, I took another 2, yeah 3 shots in one day, mega cocktail, and yes as a secundary effect I had a fever. And when it came, it came HARD >.<

I should start packing now.... but I'm feeling lazy, I hate packing BAH, I never know if what I'm taking is enough, or if I'm gonna need it >.<
