Melodramatic much?
There is a slightly BIG possibility that I may go to the States this summer. TO WORK there.
*sigh*
My sister's going to the States because she applied and got accepted in a company that just happens to be in Michigan. My mom's thinking of either her accompanying my sister for a few weeks or months, or ME accompanying my sister for weeks or months. I'm thinking we three should go there.
Just thinking about leaving makes me teary-eyed...
But I might be able to pursue writing THERE. The Philippines offers me no writing opportunities whatsoever. I'm not being unpatriotic or whatever, but I believe I write better in English. I specialize in fiction. And English fiction in the Philippines is such at the bottom of the writing barrel.
There may be greener pastures in another country for an aspiring writer like me.
*sigh*
This is such a big decision to make. I abhor making decisions this big.

I know how you feel about leaving, though.. October 23, 2004.. I was bawling like crazy.. That was the day that we left. *sigh*
*sigh* Hmmm.. Think about it long and hard, Zarah.. As you said, you might be able to pursue a writing career here. Plus, if you decide to come here, it's not like you're not ever going back to the Philippines, right? Er, I think. A few months isn't so bad--compared to not being in the Phils & seeing your friends for more than a year. :P
Goodluck with the decision-making! ;)

Problem is, if my ate goes to work there, the possibility is that we're going to be in the States for more than a year. WAAAHHH!!!
Thanks for the support, though :)
