My SO has been having trouble finding jobs where he would be able to get more money for his trip over here. He finally got one!! I'm so excited that he is able to save up even more to get here. This pushes our reunion back a month or so, but oddly enough, I'm okay with that. Sometimes I feel as though he's putting off meeting my family (he's never been to the US), but then I remember this is something that will help us in the future. I've decided that the later he comes here, the later I will leave here. I need at least $5000 AUD when going on my work visa (about $3700 USD). This will help me continue saving up for the year I will be in Australia.

Between work for both of us, and school for me, we're hardly going to see or talk to each other.. I work from 10 am-6 pm Monday-Friday (2 am-10 am for him) and he'll work around 11 am but his work is about an hour away, so he'll leave before we talk. Also, I make my own hours for school since it's online, but I'll need to focus on that. I think I'm a little stressed that we won't talk a lot because throughout our relationship, we've never really had to deal with that (only when we were in high school). I know it's all for something that will get us to where we want to go, so I'm trying to stay positive about it.

Lot of things going on and I'm focusing on school, work, and saving up. Everything will all work out soon!
