Naruto
The result of too much job hunting. Also wanted to show off my newly bleached/dyed hair to everyone. Based off a pattern of an outfit I bought a few years ago, just took it apart and voila! Naruto! Today has simply been lovely. I don't think I've ever been more estatic in my entire
life.
For the past month or so the thought of working on my visa application for Sweden has been both daunting and terrifying. Mostly because when it comes to authority figures I'm not at my most stellar. I mean, I can move to a foreign country at the drop of a hat and be perfectly fine, but speaking to the members of an Embassy about actually accomplishing that? But I've done it, and now I've gotten a lot of things straightened out.
For starters-- What I would like to accomplish in the beginning isn't even covered by a visa or application. Apparently there are no grounds for long lost siblings that have finally found one another being able to move one sibling across the ocean to live with the other sibling.. But there
are loopholes! And I've found the most spectacular one. The recommendation made by the Consulate was that I move to Sweden for the grace period of 90 days, find a job, then return to America and file for a work visa. If it's accepted I can move back to Sweden
Naruto II
Is it sad that I actually look like him? and continuously renew my permit for two years. After that I can officially become a permanent resident. Other options are obtaining my masters degree in Sweden (which accomplishes the two year requirement) or marry someone Swedish. I think I like my loophole best for the immediate time, unless one of my Swedish friends would like me for a wife ;P
The only thing that is keeping me from moving now is paying back the rest of my Japan loan. Which in reality should be paid off in a very short amount of time. Once I have a full-time job I can easily make money there, then will follow selling my car before I officially leave and also the money I make from whatever part-time work I engage in as well as Sora's wedding cake. So the reality of being there for New Years, celebrating things with my friends and brothers has definitely become reality.
Aaah, I can't wait, I can't wait! This is really too damn exciting!
