the goings on with the "DREAM Act"

I apologize I didn't report diligently as I usually do with the passing of the DREAM Act at the House and it's failure at the Senate. While it was up for vote at the House I was preparing for finals, three of which I got As in (grade for the 4th class hasn't been posted yet). I must be honest, and those of you who know me or have been following me, may expect this response, I am not surprised the Dream Act did not pass in the Senate. I realize it comes off pessimistic, I consider it being realistic.

Like I divulged before, I'm not exactly sure what those against the Dream Act think they are giving away here, especially after all the changes they made to it before it was voted on in the House. Either way, reality is, the Dream Act has been undergoing voting for 10 years, and it has not passed, so go from there. I deeply admire those who have put so much of their lives into fighting for the Dream Act and refuse to give up, I hope to have that kind of diligence in my life.

On a more personal note, I am on break until dundunDUN, February 14! I've plenty to keep myself busy with: reading, reporting news and sharing myself with you, writing, exercising, preparing for the GRE, further researching Nutrition Masters programs, and who knows maybe even looking for a job :X

This coming Tuesday I'm getting my biometrics done (or taken/measured all of that), and I'm pretty sure that will be all the progress we make since it's Christmas this weekend. So unless my interview date has already been set and it gets sent out before New years, I won't be hearing anything until January. Either way, the interview most likely won't be until January or February, it's the most amazing thing I've had to look forward to since I sent my Intent to Register to UCSB.

I can't even fathom the gates of life finally opening up to me completely, I have gone my entire life with an extremely selectively permeable wall that despite the difficulties I will go through in finding a job and becoming a real person, I won't recognize them as obstacles. Boundaries will be nonexistent.

I will finally be getting my wings!!

Thank you for following and supporting.

MUCH LOVE!!!
