This is where I found myself when my life took a somewhat unexpected turn. Long story short, my visa to return to Texas, where I had been building my life (Haha, that's cute. I had a too-expensive apartment and a brand new car note and spent my weekends Netflix binging and eating Jersey Mike's) was rejected by the American Embassy here in Singapore. Why Singapore you ask? Well, my dad just got posted here to open up an embassy for our country (I'm not American, obviously) and I figured I could visit and get my visa renewed. Little did I know Hitler was not only still alive but apparently worked at that embassy. Ok. That's ugly. I may still be a bit bitter.
No worries though. So now I am trying to have a go at it in Singapore. Looking for a job, writing and getting to know this little corner of Asia. It is actually a really nice country. The weather is hell-flavoured and cheese costs seven dollars, but... ya know... it's cool. I have been here since March and meaning to start a blog for almost as long but now I have finally gotten off my bum (not literally, I am sitting down as I type this) and started it. So, let's see how I do. Already I find the lack of a Jersey Mike's and Chipotle almost suicide-worthy. But I'm hanging in there, kids.
