2 years and counting...

Today is my and Mr.A's 2nd wedding anniversary :0)

I can't believe that it was just two years ago when I made one of the most important (and so far, the best) decision of my life. It really seems longer than that.

Sometimes, it seems that Mr.A and I have been together forever.

Cliche, I know.

Come to think of it, this year is actually our first year together. As in together together.

Looking back, it was one hell of a ride. There were a lot of changes and a lot more adjustments. A lot of discussions, compromise and explanations.

Laughter, conversation and a great deal of patience made the ride less bumpy.

And of course, the love and friendship made everything worthwhile.

'Idol' musings

* This week's performances suck big time! Worst week ever in terms of song choices and audience impact.

* Sad how Lisa Tucker totally bombed her version of Kelly Clarkson's 'Because of You' during performance night then was able to nail it head on during her farewell performance.

* I thought Katharine McPhee was one of the best performances. Turned out America didn't agree with me.

* Next week's gonna be 'Country Song' week. Of all genre to choose from, why the hell did they pick country?! Mr.A and I might boycott it next week. But then, we might get curious enough to see how Chris Daughtry will approach next week's challenge.

On the verge.

At long last, everything seems to be falling into place.

After the success of my adjustment of status interview, the next good news was the positive result of my credentialing evaluation.

Yup, the credentialing agency granted me equivalency. Which means I don't need to take additional classes. Really a lot of load off my mind.

Next step is applying to sit for the CA state boards. Which would take, give or take, another month. Still, I'm half-way there!

I'm already excited and a lil anxious about the boards. Already told my boss that I'll be taking a 3-wk leave to do some intensive studying once I get the go-ahead to take the exam.

He's ok about it, though he did tell me that after all of this, I'll look back and realize that I really don't need to take that leave to get my license. I told him that this means a lot to me that I'd rather not risk it by being too sure of myself :0P

Sigh. Almost there. Pray for me.

Turning over a new leaf.

Time and again, I've promised myself that I'll make more effort to keep this blog updated.

Time and again, I fail to keep my promise.

Maybe it's because I am so conscious about writing 'properly', when all I should care about is writing for myself.

From now on, I promise to write for myself and not for any audience.

What better time to turn over a new leaf than the first week of spring?

(Though you'll never know it with the amount of rain we've been having :0P)

I woke up late today.

Why?

Because I was dreaming that I was a contestant in a beauty pageant.

I didn't want to wake up because I wanted to know who won :0P

Talk about weird dreams.
