Six friends and I where going to cross over to the US to see the premiere, which starts at midnight. So, we decided to go at around 6 PM, I know it's way too early, but just in case anything happens. We got to the cinema at around 11:30 PM, half an hour before the movie began.
The problem was that we had to go over to one of my friend's (Joe) house for his cash, we were supposed to go straight from school to the theater. And when we got to Joe's house, one of my other friends (Dash) notices that he's missing his passport, he must've left it at his house. So we go on over to Dash's house which is pretty far away, for his passport. After that, we start heading on over to the border's bridge, but first we had to stop to buy insurance for the car, because it's required to cross onto the US. We got it, no problem, fast and easy. By the time we get to the bridge, it's around 7:30 PM. The waiting time to cross is around 30 minutes and we get on deck for revision, we start readying our documents, passports, visas, etc. That's when my friend, the driver (Lucas) can't find his visa... He gets out of the car saying that he'll call his parents, he probably left it at home and he'll crossover walking later.
So, Joe drives us across the border and we wait for Lucas. He calls us saying that his parents can't find his visa, so we start checking around in the car, maybe he dropped it or something. We checked every damn place in the car, except the engine and no sign of it... So, Dash and I decide to go over back to Mexico (long walk) with Lucas to see if he doesn't have it on himself (because communication with him was unstable). We get to him and says that he doesn't have it on him. After a while, Joe and my other two friends come back to Mexico with Lucas' car.
We go back to the car insurance place, where he might've dropped it. But it was closed. We searched around the place and no sign, even asking the people around there. So, we head back to Joe's house to get his car so that we can cross back to the US and hopefully in time for the movie. Lucas dropped us off and went back home, because his parents were pissed off at him and wanted to search the car themselves. Another problem was that Joe's car wasn't in his house, his sister was borrowing it. So, he calls her up and she brings it in about half an hour, because she was pretty far away. And now it's 10:30 PM, we're on our way to the border... again...
We get there, everything has their things ready and we cross. We get lost on the way to the theater, because none of us our familiar with that part of El Paso. But in the end, we did manage to get to it after a couple of missed exits and illegal U-turns.
We waited for our other 7 friends to arrive at the theater. We waited for midnight and we happily watched the movie. Which is awesome.
