What happened?

Yeah what the f*** happened? I was sooo going to this Zeitgeist international event. I was so willing to participate. So many good intentions, so many questions to ask, so much to discuss. So much. So what happened I don’t know. I took a bus from San Jose to Heredia where the event in question was supposed to take place. The spot was called D&C house and that was it. No address on the website, no phone number nothing but D&C house and the e-mail of some Shiva dude that did not answer my message. I spent 10 $ on taxi around the beautiful village of Heredia. For less then 10 $ I could cross the border and go the beach in Panama. The funny fact was than nobody knew where this D&C house was, nobody – shopkeepers, policeman, young and old. Nobody had a clue. I was running in circles around the village like a crazy person trying to find some international event that is taking place in HEREDIA. Damn it. I am crazy in indeed. Because no single Tico (a person from Costa Rica) will do what I did – spend the lovely Sunday summer evening in looking for a Zday. So I ve been thinking – its supposed to be an international event right? And everybody is invited, right? Not only that everybody is invited – the more the better, its for the cause!!! People have to know, people have to be invited. If its some rpivate event than damn all that noise. Moreover, why did these people decide that Heredia, some D&C House with a questionable existance is the right spot to gather people and talk about the world, the system and the revolution of consiousness and stuff like that? Why Heredia, when 30 min away in the very cosmopolitan capital of Costa Rica – the lovely home of mine called San Jose- there was a huge art/hippie/music/literature festival. Why Heredia if the majority of the intelligent, creative, capable and willing yougn people of this nation are all over the centre, the parks, the main squares? Many questions and no answer. So instead of becoming part of this movement Camie ended up sipping cas juice at Super Burrito in the hot sumer night of some Costa Rican village, starring at El Mayor de los Anillos (Lord of the Rings).

Oh well, I hope I sound pissed off! :DDD cause I am. My own Zeitgeist – I have found an organization in San Jose that will recycle waste from various primary and secondary schools. I guess we all have to find our own way to boycott the system.
