I'm so happy! I had my interview last Thursday and they told me everything looks good but they just need to process my documents... I was still nervous something could go wrong and today I finally got the call from the embasy and they said: "Your visa is issued, you can come pick it up."

Now I'm just stressed with the ticket prices, I would like to leave this week, but after all this is the smallest thing to worry about...

Thank you all for helping through this stressfull process!

I hope everybody gets their visa as soon as possible...
