I’m usually not a careless person.. I am not !  But today I did something very stupid ..
right now I’m waiting for my flight to Taipei to board in San Fransisco airport ..  On my way from Houston to SF, I checked my purse and found out that I brought  Hendrik’s greencard with me ! and I left mine with him this morning !! I originally had both cards in my passport wallet, but I thought Hendrik might need his, so I gave one to him. The card has a paper jacket, so we can’t really see the picture.

Oh how could this happen ?!?! Hendrik reminded me several times this morning to check everything. I thought well now that I finally have a greencard, the only things I need are my passport and my tickets..

I won’t have any problem leaving the country… But I will when I come back next month……

:( :( :( :( :’(

Luckily my brother is coming home too in 2 weeks so I called Hendrik to send my card to Lung2 so that he can give it to me in Bandung..  ..  Hendrik gave me quite an earful for this … ya ya ya it’s totally my fault for not double checking everything at home :(

Time really flies..  I’ve been a bum for more than 3 months now.. some friends have been asking how come they don’t see me online anymore :p  and what have i been doing really  everyday since i don’t have a job ? hehe

Hmm pretty much watching tv day after day :p  ..  mostly Law and Order, Law and Order SVU, Law and Order :Criminal Intent, or Monk … hehehe I’m a little obssesed with L&O these days..  the only new show that I wait for each week is So You Think You Can Dance.. other than that, I just watch reruns of  old sitcoms..

Law_and_order_new

I never watch L&O when I was in Indiana (the whole 8 years!).. well I used to catch a couple episodes with Hendrik whenever I came to visit Austin..  there seems to be always an episode on some station when we’re in front on the TV and we would just watch it .. it’s never planned.  But now.. I know the schedules.. I can watch 3-5 episodes a day.. and pretty soon, I’m afraid I’m going to start seeing the episodes that I’ve seen before..:p humm

each day goes pretty fast…

I still download movies/dramas at night.. same old, same  old hehe..

I’m always looking forward to the weekend because I don’t get to spend much time with Hendrik on the weekdays.. he comes home late and always very tired.. on top of that, he has Kendo practice 2-3 times a week.. and when he does, he doesn’t get home until around 11-11.30PM… almost midnight !!

and oh yeah.. we’ve picked up golf.. we signed up for a class last month… 4 meetings for 4 weeks, and outside the classes we tried to practice at a nearby driving range once a week..  Hendrik now really wants to buy me my first iron sets.. but I’m still not into it that much, I’m fine using the loaner club each time :p I don’t have the desire to own my own clubs yet :p

We kinda picked up gardening too a few weeks ago.. we made our first flower bed.. hehehe  just a small one for now.. the rest of our backyard is still empty..  it’s so rewarding to see the flowers bloom ..and my favorite is the morning glory vines that I planted from seeds.. they’re growing so fast and I checked on it several times a day hehe it’s different when you plant it yourself..  Yesterday I just put out a wild bird feeder, and this afternoon I had fun watching so may birds feeding on it from the window hehehehehe..  now I’m thinking I should put out a bird bath too…

But in a couple of days I have to leave my daily routine for 4 weeks because ….
I’M GOING HOME !!! :)   I’m leaving Saturday night and should be home in Bandung by Monday ! And this time I won’t have to stop by at the US Embassy anymore because….. We finally got our GREENCARDS !!! YAAAAAY !  We UNEXPECTEDLY got our plastic cards in the mail last Monday (last week) and that same afternoon I purchased my air ticket  !!
