The Reality Is Here

Nothing is stopping my ex-cousin from coming to America now that she will have her interview at the US Embassy this 6th of May. For that even though we had a terrible fight last two weeks, I still wish her goodluck so she will see what living in America is like when there are no friends, no relatives, no family and most of all no familiar faces to talk and see everyday of her life once she gets her.

She alienated herself from me since my last visit in my country and nothing I can do with that. The reality is here and I am hoping someday she will realize how tough living with no one to laugh with, rely on in this strange cold world. Though she has her husband around that wouldn't be enough to completely overcome the homesickness and other adjustments that she has to do in the future.

I've been in the situation where I felt like I was going crazy, often find myself crying for no reason when my husband left for work. I reinforce myself by going home just even before I reached one year in USA just to ease the loneliness I felt at that time. Thankfully I have my baby now that keeps me occupied during the day and of course, homesickness vanished. I should say I am well settled now.

Huh she thinks she knows what life is all about from afar, we will see if dili siya mangapa kapa mangita ug katabi. I know she expects a "bed of roses" kind of life here but good luck to her if her expectations turn out to be totally different from her thinking.
