Did I say that I would try not to post a boring post? Did you say that my posts are not boring? Are you ready?
I am touched by all your kind words. I am surprised that so many people have read my long post and took time to respond to me. You are very supportive and I really appreciate that.
I had a rough day and just turned on the computer. (and it took me a couple hours to post this single message) it is nice to read messages from everyone. Today I had a conference call with an immigration lawyer to consult about my immigration status. I was told that it would cost $5000 and it would take over 5 years to get my permanent residency (green card). It's not garantee. Anyway.. I wish I had a yorkie to give a hug. I am hugging my blanket instead for now.
It is very hard when you don't have any family around. I am alone in the US, and I cannot talk about any issues to my parents home because they would worry and ask me to come home. I have a wonderful boyfriend and friends and I am very grateful about that. I have my own reason why I am not going back to Japan. Anyway.. it is endless to talk about my life. I just need a companion. I even thought about going counseling, but I know I can be really really happy with alternative way. I think having a yorkie as a companionship will really do me real good. I just cannot wait for the day and I wish I had one now.
When growing up, I had Shiba Inu (outdoor). I remember looking at them from a small window in my room. I had a rough childhood, and I kept talking to them from the window. It really helped me. They knew how I was feeling and they always made me smile.
Having dogs can really make people's life happier. Some people have chemical unbalance etc that they have to be in therapy and/or take medication. Then some people just need some companionship and something else other than worries to think about. If I could go to master, I would definitely want to study about Health Psychology, Alternative way to feel healthy and happy. I was even thinking about becoming a dog trainer, but I found out that I have allegies... I can work with yorkies.. who knows.. in the future.... I might show or breed yorkies when I become 50 or something... who knows.. so I guess I stick around. The dream can be endless.
Right now, I am worrying about green card stuff and apartment, but nothing is gonna stop me from my dream to get a yorkie real soon.
Anyway.. i think it is enough talk.. I also would like to respond to some of your posts too.. Thanks for reading and support!
