I have bought my plane ticket back to Guatemala. I will leave from SLC to LAX the morning after Thanksgiving. I will then Fly out 13 hours later from LAX to Guatemala City. I think when I am in LA I will rent a car and go to the beach and do something fun while I am waiting. I know that Venice Beach is pretty Close. Or may be I will go to Hollywood and pretend to be a paparazzi and get Paris Hilton's autograph.
Anyways once I get back to Guatemala it will be interesting. I need to find an apartment to rent again, I will see my son walking and with teeth, and then I will get to see my wife.
All I know is that my life is moving really slow. I can't live in the US with my family for like 6 months to a year, paper work at the National Visa Center takes for ever, and I can only take a few online classes and not go to school full time. Yet I hope that my family makes it so we can get back to the states and eventually get a place to call our own.
I am pretty confident that when I graduate with my Bachelors in Spanish and get licenced I will get a job very easily. Speaking and understanding Spanish, knowing the immigration process, living in a Spanish speaking 3rd world country, and pretty much knowing the culture will give me a head start and will differentiate me from most other interviewees. Most people in college learn their Spanish from books, which is good; however, I think being taught the majority of Spanish from living the culture will help me connect to ESL students, and other students better.
So I am saving my money, finishing all of the Visa paperwork, purchasing my text books, and bring back what ever is needed from the states.
I like this song, its main message is that everything is going to be alright.

Wow Andy finally you have changed your blog. I like the photo of the woman and the goat. Really puts life into perspective of what you are hoping to do for your family in providing them a better life. Hang in there son, once again I say that family is the most important thing in ones life. It is all worth it! Look into the face of your little son Tosh, and when you see yourself looking back, you will know why you need to get he and Betty back to the USA. Love you son!
I think that your goals are very great ones. Best of luck to you and remember that Aunt Paulene and Uncle David have great faith in you and love you and your beautiful family.
