On the other hand, everyone keep asking me the same questions.
"Where's your bf?"
"US"
"I thought he graduated edy?"
"Yea, looking for a job now"
"There? Is he gonna come back?"
"Dunno"
"How long is he gonna be there?"
"Dunno"
"Are you gonna go over there?"
"Dunno"
Yea, that's about it. FAQs. Frequently asked questions.
1. Where's Heng Woon?
Still in the US. Yes, he has graduated and I know that was the reason we all went to the US. But he's looking for a job now because apparently it is better if he worked there for at least a year or two, so if he ever decide to come back, he can land himself a better paid job with that US experience he has gotten. And no, he did not come back with me. And yes, he has never been back here before...for this year.
2. How long is he gonna be there?
For the moment, the plan is confirmed a year. Because his permit says so. But the company will apply him a H1B permit which will entitle him to stay for another 6 years. In that case, he can choose how long he wants to stay within that 6 years.
3. Does he wanna come back?
For holiday, definitely. But that also depend on his ability to get leaves. Hehe. Well, before he graduated and actually searching for a job, he did mention he wants to come back and not stay here anymore, cos he doesn't seem to like the place or the people or something political. But now, he seems very enthusiastic about the job searching and working for big-ass companies like Microsoft and Google, I don't know anymore if he still wanna come back for good. In my opinion, he shouldn't if he can get a really good job there. Or if the job is something he really wanted to do all the while. Because you don't get it here.
4. What about you? You going over?
I absolutely have no idea. I don't even know if I should continue being in this field after I graduate in November, IF I pass my damn design. But he did share his thoughts with me. Saying, he'll work there, earn some money and then fly me over again. What about the visa right? Then he said, he'll work, get his green card or something, and then marry me so I would definitely be able to fly over. *aww, my sweetie*
But then again, I'm kinda afraid that I won't be able to cope up in working over there. Dunno if I am able to live up to their standards or not. And besides, if I go over to US straight after graduation, I would not have the experience in working in my home country or at least around Asia. Years ago, I thought I'd work here first, get an experience and then go over to the US cos I know he would eventually end up there. In that case, I can share my experience with the people in US or compare both experiences and then I get more choices. Right? But then again, getting to the US is not easy. *sigh*
So many 'but then again'.
5. Has he got a job?
No. Not at the moment. Still searching. Anyone wanna recommend?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I cried a lot during my last day in US. I cried the night before. I cried a few times on the day itself. I cried after passing the gate. I cried when I couldn't make a phone call in the waiting hall. I cried in the plane. I seriously have never cried so much during a seperation. In fact, everytime he leaves, I hardly cry. Maybe this time, nice places and food is included :P
"I'll try to come back in December ok?"
I don't think that day will ever come. Not that I don't have faith in him in getting a job or saving money or what, but I think by the time he gets a job, he's just a few-months old rookie when Christmas comes. So don't think it's so good to take leave la right? Nevermind. I'll cross my fingers till June :)
As Enric has quoted:
"In so many long-distanced relationships that I've seen, yours is the only successful one."
I quote:
It is not successful until it's marriage.
As Sue said:
"I really envy you."
I say:
There's nothing to envy about la. I just think it's personality difference. I think I'm more carefree than you are. Sometimes, I don't really care. Cos I don't want to burden myself with not neccessary thoughts and all. Been there, done that. If I'm busy, let me concentrate on my work. If he's busy, leave him alone and find me something to do. Yes it is tough. Ask Jas and she'll tell you the same. It's not as easy as you think - Oh, we'll do fine just as long as we love each other enough.
Yes you will but it's not enough. I thought the same too. Everyone thought the same too, I presume. But it's a lot more complicated. Again, I tell you. It is not successful until it's a marriage.
Damn, it's hard to read when you're half blind. I dropped one of my contacts in the bus. And I didn't even realise it. Yes, I'm blur. And also stoopid enough to buy a different brands of contacts for both eyes. Jor! Cannot wait for new stock issit! *slaps head*
Lesson to learn: Never buy any other brands that you have not used before. Unless recommemded by your own optician. Demmit. It's stupid being half blind. Might as well wear an eye patch coz you have to close one eye to see things more clearly.
Gotta go rest my very strenous eye. Poor thing.
