it sure felt nice to have had company for the past few days. elis told me her company and her are not coming here after all. i'm really disappointed, but i do understand. unfortunately, i also miss them. haven't seen them for a while. it's bad enough losing one friend, i don't wanna lose the others too. got my passport back today, which means i can probably do the written test sometime this week. when i'm not feeling lazy, that is *wink*
