Nước Mĩ có dễ tồn tại ko?

Tiền ko mua được mọi thứ, nhưng có tiền thì cuộc sống sẽ dễ thở hơn nhiều là cs ko có tiền.
Sometimes, I wonder, why should I fight this much for being in the States. But I love what i do so much to give everything up (research) and become an administrator.

Con đường đi làm

I have moved to Upton, NY almost 3 weeks now. I'm still learning the new system, the new lab, the new working routine, new city. I now have 2 full days weekend, holidays and for the last 3 weeks I learn that I now also enjoy the luxury of having "a snow day". Life changed quite a lot now. I went from a 75F in Phoenix to a less than 32F and after adding wind chill it becomes below 0F. Boys, that's cold. After living in Phoenix, my blood does get thinner. A lot of people asked me, why would I move from Phoenix to NY, I guess I do miss the snow sometimes. And I dont have a lot of chance to work at the national lab and this is one of that chance. Life is funny like that sometimes.

The life in Long island is quite expensive. Having running around trying to find a decent apartment to settle, I realized that most of apartment complex in long island are for retired people 55+ (unlike Phoenix). Most of cheap apartment ~1200 are in the basement or sublevel of other house, and most of that apartment are illegal apartment (Phoenix doesnt have basement and wisconsin people dont live in the basement). If I want decent apartment, i have to consider paying more than 1500$+. . And not a lot of apartment like that around. Hunting for a decent apartment is a nightmare. I'm lucky enough to have a roof over my head since I'm currently living on-site of the lab. But the cyber security has become ridiculous to my opinion. I cant get on facebook that often like I used to, they will block me if I get on it too long. If I used Youtube for too long, it cuts the internet. If I use google too much, it will block me from googling. On top of that, It's in the middle of nowhere. I'm not liking that idea so much. As much of the city girl as I am, I would like to be able to jump on the train to go to the city for a visit sometimes.
I like my new job, things just get really slow sometimes. Will see how I can survive this for next few years.

2013

Im thankful for everything happens in 2013: 

- got my degree

- got a new job & will move to long islands for new job

- got married

I could not have done all these without the supports of my parents and my hubby. 

Signed offer letter today. I'm moving on. It was this time last year, I was very devastated on the decision that I was forced to make, but now I think that decision leads to everything falling into places this year. Got a very good job, with good people. It was a struggling time when I flew up for interview: Infection, sickness, flight got canceled, storm and had to take 3 hours train, but I got it. hehee. Now I just have to pack everything and start the moving process. Life is good... all again

Trong số những chuyện vui đan lẫn những chuyện chẳng đc vui lắm. Chẳng biết đổ tại cái gì nữa. Chắc là tại tính giời cho. Sinh ra đã chả phải là đứa ngọt nhạt xu nịnh, lớn lên lại phát triển đc cái tính thẳng như ruột cái con ngọ. Tình yêu thg thì chủ yếu thể hiện bằng hành động hơn là bằng những lời nói ngọt, ấy vậy nên bị nói là ick kỉ, chỉ biết đến bản thân, ko thg ai. Chẳng biết nên nghĩ gì, nói gì, làm gì nữa. Ai cũng cho là người ấy đúng mà. 

Chả biết nên nói gì. 

Lần đầu còn thấy buồn.

Lần thứ 2 còn thấy chênh vênh

Chắc các lần sau sẽ thấy nhẹ như tơ.

Buồn mà làm gì. 

Để mà thấy rằng cái gì còn quy đc ra tiền thì còn rất rẻ và sẽ có thứ xứng đáng hơn thế khi chỉ thêm một tí. Tất tần tật chẳng bằng cái công lặn lội đi khi mà đêm hôm trc đó đau bụng suýt đi ER. 

Chẳng biết nói gì. Rồi sẽ chai lì và ko buồn nữa.
