(F) I know it's not the answer you were expecting, but that day will come. Do your best to persevere

and know that there is a lot of us who understand this hardship. (F)

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

I hear ya! What gets me through most of the time is looking at the Egypt AP list and seeing the ones who waited sooo long, like Becky and Sam, get their visa. It does happen eventually it just sucks not having any idea where the case is at and what the heck is going on with it. Feel free to vent, cry, scream, etc. We're here with the kleenex and tons of hugs to get you through!

Thanks guys!! Its nice to know that there are others out there that understand. The AP list has been a big help to me also. It does give me hope that this will all come to an end eventually.

::There’s a laugh in my eyes::

There’s a waltz in my walk

And it’s been such a long time

Since there was hope in my talk

If you never knew

What it is that’s new.. it’s you

‘Cause when your hands are in mine

You set a fire that everyone can see

And it’s burning away

Every bad memory

To tell you the truth

If it’s something new.. baby it’s you

It’s you in the morning

It’s you in the night

A beautiful angel came down

To light up my life

The world’s a different place

Where nothing’s too hard to say

And nothing’s too hard to do

Never too much to go through

To tell you the truth

Everything that’s new.. baby it’s you

It’s you in the morning

It’s you in the night

A beautiful angel came down

To light up my life

My life, my life

Ohh

So if I get to grow old (oh if I get to grow old)

With many years behind me (many years behind me)

There’s only one thing I want (aahh)

One thing I need beside me

For all that you are

For everything you do

For all that you’ve done

Just for showing me the truth

thats cool...I was thinking about that too, but then I decided to do crim justice cuz I didnt know if I could handle it..lol..I like the idea of being a kindergarden teacher and being creative and having a jungle in my classroom, but now teaching seems more according to tests..at least in our state...thank goodness only one more year to go for me though...I was thinking about trying to work for USCIS or something to do with immigration...well, good luck! :thumbs:

when i started this whole visa process for my husband, i was so frustrated with how slow things were going and how careless some of the workers seem to be sometimes and i told myself "that's it!! i'm applying there one day and i'll give these people there visas!!!" haha....i seriously think it would be better if they hired ppl that had experience with this torturing process!!...i hate how cold some of them are...

good luck!!! :)

(L) have a good night everyone!!!..
