HOMESICK

My unexpected exodus here in US had left me no time to think about missing home and minding into some of my personal concerns. I was abruptly placed into responsibilities and my time was fully given to coping with my work scheds. My mind was busy thinking and learning the rules, systems and ways of US education. I did not even paid attention to the adjustment of the time zone---everything just slipped out of my mind due to my hectic work schedules.

NOW---it seems that I am paying the price.

Out of the blue, I felt the unexplainable HOMESICKNESS. I felt so lonely that I can not help myself anymore. I ended up crying and starting to pack my luggage. There is only one thing I wanted---to go home.I terribly miss my mom and my little boy. Things got worse when I heard my boy over the phone asking me an innocent question, who will bring him on the first day of school?
The world collapsed and I ended crying unconsolably.

I terribly missed home and it is very hard to live alone without anybody to talk with. Whew!!!

Unfortunately, I can not leave now, I have my commitment to work this summer. Hopefully, my days will be occupied again and I will temporarily forget my predicament. I am looking forward to live one day at a time because if I start to look at the years, I always found myself in the deep abyss of loneliness.

Tomorrow will be another day and eventually, I will be on my way home.

What are you doing when you lose the most track of time? This is what you should spend the most time doing.

bro,

I appreciate it very much but isnt it that sometimes we need connections that could extend beyond virtual world?

It is somehow nice to feel the real warm of touch, hug and kiss.

Enjoy and have fun.

Joseph,

You are always great.

I did call 911 once after i came back from my spring break in Laughlin and i found out that my water was closed and not a single drop was coming out from the tap. I can not wait for tomorrow to come so i asked 911 to do something with my condition and after 15 mins. i got abundant water coming out from my shower and taps...hahahahahaha.

with 911, things are possible. hahahaha

young,

first, i want to thank you for dropping by.

second, i want to believe in the idea that from what you have achieved and been through life, you are already in the stage where a real essence of retirement is very much arranged and just waiting for you to consume. thats make a big difference.

Have fun.
