Flying to Oaxaca

Ok, so most of my flight to Oaxaca was fine... except the actual timeline in Mexico City, trying to get to Oaxaca. So I had a total of 2 hours in Mexico city to get off the plane, go through customs, and somehow find my way to the next plane. I waited in line for customs for about 45 minutes, then was getting too nervous with time, so I told a security person that I had to leave on a flight in about 30 minutes, so he let me go in front of the line. Then, I sort of new where I was going, but only kind of, so some security guard person "helped" me, and then I had to give him a tip. It wasn't much help, but it was still good to have I guess. I then tried to go through to the gate, but the people there said I was in the wrong terminal. I was in terminal 2, and I had to be in terminal 1. I took a quick 5 minute train ride over there.
Once I got there I looked for my flight on the screen, and couldn't find it! I asked a guy there if he knew where my flight to Oaxaca was, and he looked at my ticket and said it was in terminal 2. Ahhh, I had like, 15 minutes till my plane began boarding! I then asked some people that I'm pretty positive were pilots, and they totally helped me. They were going back on the train anyway, and made sure I got through the first gate there. Then they somehow got to the other side and pointed me the right way. Thank god for nice people!
I ran over to the gate for my flight, and then there was some trouble with my ticket because they couldn't originally find it electronically. Eventually they did, so I ran down 4 flights of ramp, and made it on to this little bus that took us out to the airplane. I think I was the last person there! But I made it, then met up with a guy who was also in the program. Once we got to Oaxaca, we took a taxi into the center and made it to the hostal. Yay!
There were already around 10 people here. It's pretty cool Today we walked around Oaxaca a little bit, got some pesos, and some coffee (chocolate for me), and then bought fruit, fresh tortillas, and mole from a mercado (market). Oh yeah, and I ate cactus fruit (tuna). Quite tasty. We start orientation tonight!
