Chetumal Trip to remember




Well I must say this was one chetumal trip that will not leave my mind one iota. Well for those of you who don't know Chetumal is a city in Mexico. So I'm from Belize and we neighbor Mexico. Me and a couple of friends decided to have a road trip to mexico to go to the malls, drink coffee, eat sea food on the sea side, check out the new flicks that are out etc. We go every now and again.




I had just recently overhauled my entire truck before I went though, due to the last trip where the engine got overheated and blargh. So it's preactically new, new engine, new seats, new paint job etc. The trip was doomed from the start. When we arrived we went to a restaurant called Pollo Brujo for some smoked chicken and the waitress practically scolded my friend rabbani like a child haha. That was hillarious I have to admit and he got pissed off. So after that we went to the mall that's there.... and upon driving into the parking lot a police officer stopped me because I was going 30 km/h and he says that's speeding. SPEEDING! He told me the speed limit is 10km/h you know what that is!? Thats like less than 5 MPH fuck yeah! He was just picking on me because I was a foreigner with foreign licence plate, the asshole. Every other fucking mexican was going way faster than I.




So he wanted to give me a ticket but I explained my plight and the fact that I don't live here, so he gave me a warning. We watched the movie 300 and that bombed out. Thanks a lot pancho! The asshole kept saying how good of a movie it was and how we had to go see it and boom a big flop. No one really enjoyed it, the shit was too over exaggerated.




So after that we went to the sea side for a ceviche which is like a sea food salad. Has shrimp, conch, octupus etc chopped up with veggies seasoning etc. Before rabbani even started he bit a pepper and his tongue was burning up haha, another hillarious rabbani moment. After we go to fill up on diesel for my truck for the ride back home.




I ask the stinking lady at the gas station for 160 pesos worth of diesel and the bitch puts gasoline into my tank!!! FUCK! DAMNIT TO HELL! You know what else? she didn't want to accept responsibility for her blunder either. She basically washed her hands clean of the dilema and told us screw you basically. So I can't fucking move an inche cuz the minute i start my car and gasoline gets into my engine its fucked. We had to push it to the side then with a wrench go underneat and unloose the gas tank and bleed it out. It took almost 2 hours for all the gasoline mixed with diesel to bleed out cuz the aperture for the hole in which it pours out is small. It's night, we're all pissed at the gast station for this, and furthermore we have to repay for diesel. This time i eyeballed the bitch the whole time to make sure she didn't fuck something as simple as putting diesel into a diesel pickup hat has a tank valve saying DIESEL on the top. I mean even if she heard wrong the tank on the side even says DIESEL!




So we went back to the mall to have some pizza and coffee before we head out, no not the hot kind, the cold ice cream type coffee. Before I left I went to the pet store to get a gerbil for my Wee brother Giancarlo because it was his birthday. So I sumgled the gerbil over the border and rabbani wanted to pet it and like vintage rabbani moments, the gerbil bit his ass, and he's all startled, complaining, and bleeding. haha. This guy is too hillarious. It's five of us, driving back, me being the driver... my truck. I live in belize city the only one too! Rabbani is from belmopan the capital which is a hour away after you reach belize. and pancho and jarrel are from orange walk which is an hour before you reach belize. So i dropped off pancho and jarrel first. and on my way heading out of orange walk and on my way to belize... this huge ass truck was heading in the opposite direction. we were on a curve. i thought he was gonna pass by me, so i lowered my headlights from the high beam to not blind him. Before I could react this truck is somehow now on my lane on a head on collision to me. I hit the brake as hard as I can, the car begins to slide. All i can see is his head lights due to the fact that his truck is soo massive, i'd have to bend my neck up to just see his windshield. His head lights get closer, oh no.. I'm dead....
