Just before my medical and interview appointment in Manila US Embassy

I’ve been so busy again lately, finishing my school and work obligations; it drained me up.

I had a mixed emotion during my last day of work last week. I’ve been working with my boss’s for years already and it pains me to go, I’ll miss them, I’ll miss everybody. They become so special in my life, they are my second family..it’s really hard to say goodbye. I swear I can never forget them..I’ll just keep in touch. On the other way around, I’m happy too cause Carlo and I had been waiting for my appointment at USE…of course we want to be together. Quite a wonderful life I have, and I’m so thankful, I have special people who loved me and cared for me in spite and despite of my shortcomings…you bet I’m so lucky huh?

Last week after resigning from work, I had been moving my stuffs from Davao to GenSan, I had 3 trips to completely moved my stuffs out. Whew, 6 years of living here in Davao is quite long isn’t it? I have good memories in Davao and wherever I go, I will always go back to Davao. I love Davao :-).

I’ve also been reviewing all my papers for my incoming medical/interview next week, I need to make sure that I have everything prepared before I go to Manila..and so far, the only thing that is lacking is the printed tab for my papers.

This coming tuesday, I’m heading back to Davao again for my flight to Manila this wednesday. I’m ready with my incoming med and interview and I’m praying everything will flow smoothly.

I'm reminiscing..

Reminiscing some memorable experience..

I couldn’t believe it when I renewed my NBI clearance and the result was “I GOT HIT”. That’s how they call it when there’s an unsolved record in the NBI. It doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s ‘my record’ cause a lot of times, it belongs to another person who has the same name.

It made me think when I heard the result, I haven’t been anywhere but work and home for the past few months or years. I wasn’t scared or something, but it made me wonder, who in the world was that of the same name as mine that has a record.

I really thought I have a unique name, my name spells like this..Glady’s ,yeah that’s with an apostrophe. I would even smile before, all of the people I’ve met who first saw the spelling always gives a follow up question, well, can’t blame them. My name seemed like –Glady is..and I have 2 first name. Glady’s Gay -can you imagine it sounded like Glady is Gay.

Geez, now there’s the two of us. I wonder who is that girl with the same name as mine..hmmm. I have no idea what did she did but I just hope that she will clear her name.

A piece of advice to those who are getting their records, get those ahead of time so incase of delays; you can still meet your deadline.

By the way, I’m renewing my NBI clearance as it is needed for my upcoming Embassy interview.

I first filed it September of last year (2006) but then the Embassy required for the latest one (at least 3 months), so I renewed it.
