The First Two Weeks of This Year Has Been Crazy

So, its official. I signed it this week. But since a lot of issues have been raised after I finalized my decision, I can not completely say I did it. One last hurdle to make. One stress to conquer and then I would definitely say that I have a success story to tell.

The stress of it had been hovering over my head and haunting me during my afternoon naps (my nights are good) for the past few days and it IS stressing me out. I want to pull my hair in pieces until I am ultimately sure I am good to do home and process everything from there. During the last two weekdays of this week I've been constantly in the net and asking questions over the phone. Now, the weekend is coming to its end and its time to crunch the immig law websites.

But, everytime I see my brand new Western Digital 160GB portable hard drive, my worries seem to go away. I love it. I love.it. I love it. My friend A and M gave it to me for Christmas and I was in absolute shock when I got it. Honestly, I don't deserve it. I've been leeching pity and scraps of food from them (well, from a lot of friends) since I got here. I feel that I just don't deserve a holiday gift. Probably, the hapless state of being impoverished and the inability to reciprocate that would incline me to kneel and touch my forehead to the ground, repeatedly, while my palms outstretched and lips continuously chanting "I'm not worthy...I'm not worthy..." until I pass out, a good sign of limitless gratitude to these people.

It's black. It's sleek. It weighs less than my Adidas chronograph watch (which I got for $15 on Thanksgiving). He's the love of my life right now. Well, I hope iPod won't be jealous. I had her for almost 3 years now. The scratches and bruises are witness to the sand, cement and stone we have kept together. Although, her battery is running a little weak, she's still fine. And now, I have a new baby...he makes me cry.

Now, I can take home all the MedStudy CDs with me back home. Ehem..m such a freaking geek. I guess that's what I am turning out to be. Well, not to mention the loads of porn. But, honestly, I am thinking now of deleting it. It may be inviting bad karma and it would kill me if I just find it dead after loading it with so much of it.

More to come in this exciting year!
