I have about 3 months more, depending on how long they take to process my employment visa etc. I haven't exactly told many people, but somehow word spreads.

So to those of you who found out through someone other than me, please don't be offended. It's not that I don't want to tell you personally, or that you're not important enough. It's just that I don't wanna let so many people know until I sign the contract. I guess I want it to be really really completely confirmed before I start letting people know that I'm leaving.

Braces are a bitch. By the way. It's freakin painful.
