NFL Season Picks- Week 6 Results and Week 7 Picks
Closer and closer to leaving
I got it! So the embassy interview, I was anxious about is now behind me. I got the visa this time and shortly I'll be leaving my island home for the East Coast. I'm excited, and looking forward to this new chapter in my life. The professional experience is something I've been longing for, and didn't have much opportunity to do here in Jamaica. Everyone wants someone with years of experience, and so young people fresh out of college don't stand a chance. So now is my time to shine.
Also, I'll be able to see my baby more often. While I'll be in DC, New York is not that far away. The distance between New York and Jamaica, well it wasn't a challenge for us but now this makes it much easier. Yai!
Leaving Jamaica on November 7.

NFL Season Picks- Week 5 Results
Week 5 was filled with major excitement. Wonderful wonderful games and I loved every minute of it. Well, thankfully I didn't have to endure the torture of watching the Bills and the Browns. My record means less and less to me, especially when the Bengals can beat the Steelers. The Cardiac Cats attack again! And how beautiful was it when the student, Josh McDaniels was victorious over the teacher, Bill Bellichick.
And so the results - 10-4

So close, oh so close
On Thursday, October 15th, I will finally know if I will be granted a J1 Visa for the Psychology internship programme that I have been accepted into. Last July, I had gone to the embassy and had gotten turned down, mainly because I didn't communicate clearly my work experience in Psychology. This time, I'll be going armed with letters from my professor and also a letter from CIPUSA to reflect that I have the necessary qualifications to be granted the visa. Everyone, has their fingers crossed for me and I want this so very badly. I'm nervous, excited, nervous and anxious. Tomorrow is Wednesday and then we have Thursday. I just want to know, and yes I want good news.

NFL Season Picks- Week 4 Results
Week 4 has been great. The Titans, not so great. The Dallas Cowboys has been proven to be not as great as their new stadium. Greatness continues to flow through the New York Giants and the Indianapolis Colts, some is rubbing off on the New Orleans Saints, while the New England Patriots, are trying to reclaim their greatness. And the results are in.
My record this week-11-3
http://www.nfl.com/scores/2009/REG4
My overall record throughout the first four weeks- 51-11
NFL Season Picks- Week 4
As the season progresses, teams are now finding out how good/bad they are and some are starting to crack under the pressure of making the playoffs, while others are having a great first quarter of football. There are some major clashes this week. I'm rooting for Flacco over Brady; rookie, Sanchez over Brees and the high flying saints; and old man Favre over his old team. Let's see Denver stick it to Dallas too, while Pittsburgh reclaims their Superbowl form, or the Steel City will sure start to crack. Oh yes, goooooo GMEN!! Here goes the prediction for Week 4!
DET @ CHI
CIN @ CLE
OAK @ HOU
SEA @ IND
TEN @ JAC
NYG @ KC
BAL @ NE
TB @WAS
BUF @ MIA
NYJ @ NO
DAL @ DEN
STL @ SF
SD @ PIT
GB @ MIN
Sick Leave
I've been wanting to blog since Wednesday but I couldnt muster up the energy. I'm sick. I got the flu. This is the first time I've been ill in 2 years, so when I do get the flu or whatever it is, it seems to hit me hard. Or maybe I'm a wuss lol. So I've been home from work, sleeping the days away and trying to breathe. Another week off for triathlon then, until I recover.
NFL Season Picks- Week 3 Results
Did I mention how much I love football? I love upsets...but not when its my favourite teams that are on the receiving end. So shoulda-coulda-woulda picked Detroit to beat Washington, but I didn't so no moaning over that. Hardly anyone could have thought that Cincinati would have beat Pittsburg. The games were great, some nail-biters; Brett Favre is back, again and again. Shout out to Flacco and the Ravens. My Giants are looking so good;Go Gmen!
And the results are - 14-2
