22nd of July, 2015

I've found myself settling into a mundane routine of getting up at 9 in the morning (surprise!) and working on e-mails in my jammies. Due to the fact that my mother is on the other side of the globe, it is a tad bit challenging for us to organize our immigration paperwork. Filling up the immigration forms is a tedious job, especially when there are so many pages to look at and so many addresses to repeat (my U.S address and the U.S address where I'll stay, seriously?).

The lingering question of whether I should stay or leave the U.S for the duration of the fall semester is still up in the air, which is really frustrating. Uncertainty is really frustrating, and funnily enough, this reminds me of a certain situation my boyfriend was in just a month ago when he had to consider transferring to a flight school in D.C because the Orlando school was giving him and his parents a hard time. While waiting for his verdict, I was constantly trying to console and reassure myself that everything will be okay, and that I can always fly up to visit. Imagine my relief when he decided to stay in Orlando. I know it's a selfish thought, but I was happy to be able to retain this arrangement just because I'm highly uncomfortable with the idea of change. Unfortunately, it seems like our positions have been switched, and pretty soon I'd have to make the decision to leave (or not to leave).
