I am leaving
I’ve bought my ticket to Estonia (yeah, you’ve read right, ESTONIA (IN EUROPE)) and the official date is December 18th, 2011.
Why?
There are so many reasons to list but I can certainly try.
Few of my friends know my situation; visa status, financial troubles, long distance relationship with this amazing girl in Estonia, etc.
I am looking forward to finding a job (because I can’t work in the U.S.) as I’ve been just bumming off my small Google AdSense checks for a bit. Plus I can see there’s a huge market in Estonia for practically everything related to anything (including technology!) The small checks I’ve been receiving are not enough. Not enough to support myself and definitely not enough to take my girlfriend out on dates.
With a new job, (and hopefully further development of my websites) I will have money to do most of what I want to do including going to school. I still want a Bachelor’s Degree, because this Associate’s isn’t good enough. Perhaps I will open my own business. There’s so much options laying around and so much room for me to grow.
I am pretty excited for school. I’ve been bumming and visiting universities around my area (Ramapo, William Paterson, Rutgers) and I can see I need to go back to school. There’s so much going on in college in terms of social activities, but going to a college is the same thing as networking. For my future, I need to meet promising people and make connections.
D-Day is coming up. I need to work on my websites and give my 100%. I have a little over 30 days left, and that means I can make 30 websites. Key word: CAN. It’s all up to me. I’m really trying to muster up all the will power I have to work. Not for my sake, but for ours.
My visa situation is fucked up. It has been for years now. I’m sick of hearing people say “hey, I thought you were leaving” or “hey, when are you leaving again?” over and over. My parents still want me to stay despite the fact that I cannot work legally and cannot attend school. I need to move on.
Moving to a new country, a country that’s completely unfamiliar to my knowledge is an adventure. I love this kind of thing, as it brings a huge change in my life. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. And as it turns out, it happens that this all started by meeting a girl.
She is perfect in every sense of the word. They say love makes you blind, and I believe it’s quite possibly true. Even her imperfections seem to turn into something that I grew to love, and I can easily say that her imperfections make her perfect.
She’s calling me on Skype right now. Time to finish this up and say, I’m looking forward to my new life.
