There is something in the cafeteria salad that is so addicting. For 2 days now, I have been eating the salad greens for lunch. I just add a sandwich or banana and then I am all set. It's so addicting that I can't seem to get enough of it. And the croutons are heavenly. Hindi ako makapaniwala na pinepraise ko ang cafeteria food. -------------------- DA POGI's travel was pulled in by 2 days. So rather than Monday, he will be leaving this Saturday. Can't say I am sad or anything, because honestly, I feel that he deserves to be sent on that trip. I am happy for him. I will miss him surely. On the flipside, I'll have command of the car for 3 whole months. Hehehe.

I'm going home tonight. Manila, here I come!

I have been contemplating what will be happening to my life in the next couple of months and contemplation often leads me to tears. I just try to think about the good things that will come. The glass is half full.

Struck off one problem from my long list of travel woes. I am now able to go online for free because I found a hotspot that is not secured. Haha, the joys of wireless technology. And then finally found out why I couldn't get any money from the ATM. Hopefully, my boss can help me out on that area and follow up with our employee services so that I will no longer be penniless in America. I will also be able to pay off my cash advance from my other credit card. With my previous blog, there were a lot of people who expressed concern. And I thank all of them. Ref, Mama Mia, Bespren and to those who sent IM's and hello's my way, thanks. Things have been picking up. Sure it has been slow, but hopefully, I wouldn't have a nervous breakdown before the week ends.

I have been in the US for 3 days and I am depressed as hell. No kidding. I spent yesterday crying my eyes out. For some unknown reason, I am suddenly feeling homesick. I called DA POGI several times already. I even gave in and paid $13 just to have high speed internet connection for a day. I am spending left and right just to get in touch with my husband. I super duper miss him. It doesn't help much that things have not been going my way. The minute I arrived, I encountered some problems. Immigration thought that my visa picture does not look like me in anyway. I had to take off and put on my glasses just so they can take a good look. I spent 20 minutes answering questions about my trip. After immigration, my bag went missing for a few minutes and finally surfaced next to bags of some person that I don't know. The hotel is not that good. Everything is expensive. My AmericanExpress didn't want to work. Thus, aside from being depressed, I am also penniless in America. I was also lost for a little thus causing me to login to the internet just so I can email the organizer of the meeting to tell me how to get to the meeting location. My laptop doesn't seem to want to work with wireless. My brain and my stomach seems to not have been communicating correctly. I don't feel hunger or thirst, I just feel woozy. And when I do eat, it just goes back up. I am feeling cold and is coughing like crazy again. It just isn't my day. I hope everything picks up. I want to go back to the Philippines.

I hope noone from Immigration reads this. I am sick. Been coughing like a dog since last night. My hands and feet are cold, colder than what is normal for me. I should've taken today off. :( -------------------- Watched Mr and Mrs Smith last night. Plot was forgettable but Angie and Brad sure looked HOT. That's all I can blog about. My eyes feel as if they're burning.

Just found out from Pipaps that my commenting system is broken. Hmmmm.... I'll fix it IF I have time to fix it. * It just got magically fixed by this post. :D -------------------- Hell has frozen over. So that's what my mom means when she says Never say never. Heh! :D

Yesterday, I wasted away my afternoon waiting to be interviewed at the US embassy. I couldn't bring my cellphone in. I couldn't bring my PDA in. I couldn't bring my laptop in. I was left to waste away time trying to come up with ways to entertain myself. I was scheduled 1PM but was interviewed at around 4:30PM. There were a LOT of people. Some new applicants, some renewing their visa application, some just wasting away time. I was able to witness at least 3 people who were denied visas. And, let me tell you, it's not pretty. It's not nice to see the consul pulling the blinds because one person refused to shut up and justify why she shouldn't be denied a visa. It's not nice to see a big man, ask for the consul's change of heart when we all know that will just alienate them. I'm just happy that I got approved. Even if it means falling in line tomorrow just to get my passport.

All I can say is read your email. There are tons of information there that needs to be passed on to other people. :D
