I'm back

It has been awhile since my last post. I do not even know where to start now. My football posts are over. I've just been enjoying the game. Now moving on with the next phase of my life-

I've moved to the USA, and now live in Washington DC working in my field. Finally!!! I love psychology.
I am closer to my girlfriend now, which I'm so happy about. She'll be coming to visit me over the Christmas holidays, and I'm going to New York over the New Year's holiday.
I'm settling into my new environment and also looking to re-start my triathlon training.

Things are going good. Hope to blog some more and we see what happens from here on out.

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.

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.

I'm starting a blog

Many times, I'm consumed with thoughts...while I walk, rest, run. My inner ramblings beg for release. So here I am, ready to set them forth. Release them unto this page...from hence forth.

So this is where my life is currently at.
- Cuurently working in Customer Service but wanting to move into my field (Psychology)
- Got accepted into an internship for Psychology to begin November (waiting for Embassy interview)
- Starting training to become a triathlete
- Totally in love and planning to marry my girlfriend somewhere in the future


*yeah to my first post :D
