New Filipina Colleague

My sister, Kelly, just sent me photos of her holiday with her new Filipina colleague, Marissa. Kelly is trying to make her feel at home since she just arrived to the United States and does not have family or friends. Kelly knows the feeling of being alone in a foreign land, just like nine years ago when she landed in America.

Kelly mentioned that Marissa's first goal is to slim down. Working in the beauty industry where their lady boss demands perfection from her staff, Marissa certainly feels the pressure. She said that she hopes to earn and save enough to go for austin weight loss program and at the same time, try to remit as much money home as possible. Her family back home thinks that America is still the land of dreams and she doesn't want to disappoint them. Poor Marissa.
