VISA APPROVED

[slim 1,525]

For us, it was mostly filling out a bunch of tedious forms and waiting.

Speak for yourself, buddy. I rescued my wife from a harsh life of waiting in line for bread, working 14-hour shifts in the tank factory seven-days-a-week, and walking through two meters of snow while being bothered by alcoholics that would try to rape her.

I did her a favor. I should get a medal too. If it wasn't for me and guys like me (not just the guys who did some *whooptidy-freakin-doo* tedious forms) who go over there and literally scoop these girls up off the streets and put them into nice apartments with heat and running water and a stove, then there would be a whole country full of gorgeous women that would have to fend for themselves, never knowing the joy and elation of finally seeing what the inside of Bebe Sport looks like.

Give me a medal? Give me a break. The Nobel prize would be more fitting.

(Oh, and congrats, by the way! Not on the visa, but on getting the tickets changed with no hassles! You should get a medal for that!)

GOOD DAY!!!

IT's me- NATALIA!!!

Thank you to everyone for congraduation, for help and hope.

Interview really was more easy than I thought. Like you already know just 3 questions, also she (consul) found in her PC information that I have been in USA at april-may 2006 with B1/B2 visa and she liked that.

Buck did not write here that I got my DHL mail with passports and visas very soon - 6 march ( 3 days after interview). WOW!

I have just two weeks and will come to my love Buck))) LA LA LA LA) and 306 days of waiting does not seem so terrible now)

What feelings do I have now? MIX- happiness that soon I will be with my Buck and 3 years of waiting are now behind us, but also I feel sad about my parents, friends, job. Most - about parents. Couse I do not know when I will see them next time. And I just can pray that God will keep them in health.

So just one more step and I will be with my Buck!

The path for each of us (me, Buck, all of you) was not easy. I want to keep the memory of our journey for many long years. It will help us always to remember how much we can be strong if we are together...... and weak if we are alone.

GOOD MOOD!!!! GOOD NEWS!!!GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Congratulations to you Natalia, I'm so happy your interview went well. I'm so happy for you both! It's understandable that you will be a little sad, but I hope you will be able to speak with your parents on the phone often.

Please continue to post here with your experiences!

Hahaha...... Slim........ you joker. I can almost hear the Molotov cocktails come crashing through your windows now as a sea of patriotic Russian women take up arms after reading your post. Or worse....... maybe your love does a Bobbitt job and "de-helicopters" you in the dead of night. Could happen. More than one German soldier woke up with his you know what missing. Oooooo mannnnnnnnnnnnnn........ I have been out of circulation so long I had to look up your reference to "Bebe Sport" on the internet......... didn't know what it was.

It's true, and this footage of Slim in a convertable proves it. (and you thought time machines just came in DeLorean's...)

Yesssssss..... one can only imagine the shock and bitter disappointment upon learning that the border guard was not actually a young man.

Ah, I see. For a moment I thought maybe they'd even be on the same plane. But I'm pretty sure Sasha's flight is direct from SVO to JFK. Well, its still pretty neat. The same day has great significance for all of us.

Depending on what time Sasha's plane arrives at JFK, they may be hanging out in the VISA processing line together.

True. She gets into NY at about 7:15pm.
