In less than 24 hours, I'll know if my efforts have earned me the license to practice as a Filipino Physical Therapist.

I'm reconciled with the fact that I sallied forth with an underpowered Samurai & such an act would normally merit failure.

I also know that a miracle sometimes happen, just because.

Seraphic femininine nobility,

Now, Silence speaks to me & it says I've wronged you.

I don't know many things & I don't feel a lot of things, but the little that I see (or do not see) tells me that your absence is your way of saying "Go away".

If you've no wish to retain me as your friend, I'll fulfill that wish. Though I'm no genie (though I do have the paunch to be one), that much I can do for you.

I humbly request that you'd at least deign to tell me what has caused you to distance yourself from me, for I would like to make amends for something most likely done out of ignorance.

Well, the search for profitable employment has commenced earlier this afternoon. I was thinking of asking my two Filipina LJ buddies about their previous & current employment but I haven't had the chance yet.

I've applied to places near my parents' house to save on transportation expenses. The list of things I've to finance or reimburse hasn't shortened & I don't think it'll be significantly reduced for another year or so.

Of course, every little thing counts. That's why I'm increasing my capabilities to produce those dangling earrings I like making. I may make those earrings that have those little dream-catchers, but the costs of that little thing (the miniature dream-catcher) is currently prohibitive. As of now, I'm making those earrings for kith & kin. When I'm satisfied with the quality of the earrings I'm able to produce, I'll put them up for sale.

I'll cut back on some of the extravagant expenditures, like fast food. The previous months proved that I can make do with cheaper alternatives that'll provide the needed energy. Since I don't consider my hobby as an extravagance, I'll continue adding to my collection of model kits, action figures & toys, albeit at a slower measured pace.

Anyhow, times like these are when I can use my mental faculties to the fullest. Of course, if my mild headaches when I think are harbingers of what I fear, then I'll die of an aneurysm by my 40s. By then, I'd either be in a state wherein I can allow myself to die or be in a state where my Wife will carry out my will, as per our agreement.

Here & now, I'm reinforcing the Samurai. I'll be needing a particular item to bring the Fighter bays to full operational status. Most, if not all, of the Samurai's components have to be made from scratch & then fit to the Samurai's scale. There are other items, such as the Veritechs, that would be more easily synthesized if I had the actual item (or at least a scale model of it). There are other things, such as the larger-than-life scale models of the body that I need, that MUST be made from images memorized from books. The fact that I've used a Pellaeon-class Imperial Star Destroyer as the Samurai's basis means I have A LOT of space to fill up. Wide spaces are what makes a memory palace work & nobody said I can't make one out of a heavily modified Pellaeon-class Imperial Star Destroyer.
