So the pretty penny I was talking about in my last entry is not as dear as I was led to believe. There are things that I don't need to do so it cuts my price into a fourth of the original thought. It's $400 for medical expenses which I don't need to deal with, then it's $200 for a visa and $200 for a permit. I only need a visa if I plan to leave the country and come back during the time of my permit. I don't plan to leave the country so I only need a permit. I can wrap my mind around $200 a lot better than $800.
I discovered this information today and while I was still under the belief that it was $800 I had to seriously consider how much I really wanted to stay here. I was leaning a lot further on the side of staying considering everything I've got going for me here. Then there were some recent developments and now I feel like I may be meant to stay here longer. With such a push for me to stay and discovering that the price tag was a lot lower I've decided to apply for the extension. It gives me an extra year to complete the list of things I planned to do months ago and all the things I've added since.
