My American Dream.

When I was 16, I used to watch movies on HBO while my parents are sleeping. I end up sleeping on weekends at 12 Am because I like watching TV alone during those time. Father installed a Cable because he likes watching Animal TV. But he didn't know how to navigate the channel so well. And that is where I started enjoying watching American movies. Then I made a promise one day that I will have an American boyfriend and I will live in the US and I will have a family there or talk to an American people, have a joyous conversation with them. My wish was granted because I was able to talk to American during my call center days. But going to the US and have a Family there will never gonna happen, probably in my second life.

My dream of going to the States started during the frequent visits from my Relatives specially my Grandma and two aunts. But after I failed the embassy interview twice back in 2008, I dropped my dream of living in the US. More so when we finally had a commercial business courtesy of our Grandma's investment. I stopped dreaming about going to the US because it's expensive there and with Donald Trump as president you don't know what people might do to you.

@JustBhem I realized now a days that is not worth it..If I was a millionaire or won the lottery, i would spent time to visit every tourist spot in the country because I'm filipino.

That's will scare me. Well, it just my 16-year-old mind and I already changes my mind. And besides, I'm sick already so that American dream will just be a dream.

Almost every Filipina woman wants to have an American Husband either simply preference or just a bridge to get them out of poverty.
