August 2008 Filers

Just checked my timeline -

According to the data you can expect your application to be adjudicated between December 30th 2008 and January 19th 2009

*sigh*

I wonder if mine keeps pushing itself out so far because I have yet been able to put in a NOA1 date?

Dani's back

Mara sweety, dont keep looking at this timeline that much, there were people approved a month behind their timeline so keep it cool

Anyone missed me? Wow i have missed the best part here, i was sleeping and just got up now, you guys were talking for weddings and i missed that oh i'll need a week here to read all the posts, let me start now...

How are you dear friends?

Lets start another day in waiting

Hugs for all

Hey I like the wedding talk, Maliciant. People ask all about my wedding in person and I love that there are people that understand why we're wanting to hold the real ceremony off until we decide. Plus it's a feel-good topic.

Just checked my timeline -

It might be, I think mine moved once I was able to put in the NOA1... but it's also moved back quite a lot. It's gone from December 6th to December 25th, so who knows.

Dani, feel free to talk about your wedding plans whenever you want.

I love our August thread!

Thank you Gemmie, i needed my coffee first before i start writing here more

I'm like most of the women here, simple wedding, lots of flowers is a must

and of course happy people around us, we are planing to make like a karaoke

sing our best songs, dance, and just make this day simply unforgettable...

i love flowers and i want to have them around us, all kinds of flowers,

i'm a fan of the beach weddings, also of the country weddings, but i cant

have them all, so we'll have church wedding then we'll go all to some place

plus it will be winter so not many choices

for a dress i like the silk and the lace, ohh i love lace

i'm a part time student 3rd year in university in Bulgaria and i need to complete

my adjustment before august/september 2009

i hope everything will be as we plan it...then we can meet and share how our wedings

were and show pictures when the winter is over

By the way when was everyone born, which month?

Both Chris and I are in August, 2 real Leos

and you guys?

enjoy your day

HD, i missed you too, what time is there now?

we are +2 timezone here Eastern european time

10.50 AM

Thanks Gemmie and Dani for the kind words, now that I have looked everyone is pretty much around me in timeline, though it is funny how someone people who have filed before me, and got an NOA1 date will "apparently" be approved after me... I think I will stop looking at the timeline dates for a month, they aren't really helping my case. Plus they are really just an estimate on past trends and other months, which are so not as cool as August! LOL!

Sadly all this stress and worry has come from having a hard day at work. I just found out that I have lost a contract that had already been "given" to me so apart from losing out on 2 weeks of pay my confidence took a swipe coupled with the fact I haven't really heard from Chris since last week thanks to timezones, work, family and him not emailing me back since Monday. Amazing how one little thing just pushes you over the edge like that.

I am +10 GMT Dani So in QLD, Australia it is currently 6:15pm Its always strange to me that we are finishing our Wednesday before some have even really started it.

Sounds like you have a lot to incorporate into your wedding, Im having that issue too, there are so many ideas out there! No way you can use all of them lol. I had always thought I wanted to get married near a forest, though now it looks like we will be ocean people, but we are having ours at the end of summer so it should be a lovely temp

We are a mixed little starsign bunch in our house. I am a gemini born in June and Chris is a Capricorn born in January I know they "aren't meant to mix" but we compliment each other really well, and just as many things in common then different.

good morning everybody!

in here it´s wednesday morning at 11:13 and I hope all of you had a good start already or gonna have a good start in the day!

my honey is a virgo and I´m a scorpio, but I don´t know that much about astrology...

my fiancé moved to washington dc last month so now we have only 6 hours of time difference instead of 7!

we gonna do the same like you gemmie and chris& mara, cause we won´t be able to get our two families together so fast.

the funny thing is that he will plan our wedding, cause when we talked about it the first time I said I´ve never thought about how I want "my wedding", not even as a lil girl, what he couldn´t believe.

where did you, the ones who´ve already bought their wedding dress, bought it? in the internet or in a wedding shop?

I have brought my dress from a local wedding dress designer and maker in from a town about 25mins drive from home. She is a wonderful designer and all my tailoring and alterations are included in the cost and no Im not paying 2K for it lol.

I wanted to have something Aussie for my big day the dress is due to be finished this month and I should be going in at the end of this month start of next for my first fitting I intend it to be part of my carry on luggage when I head to the states, though I will have to clear it with my airline as I intend to take my laptop with me too.

Hey guys!!! I missed everybody. It is currently 628pm here in my timezone. Basically, it's a 12 hour difference from EST. Miss you Dani!!! Let me go grab my coffee. Be with you shortly.

[Bulgarican 0]

Ohh i'll have many things to carry with me to the usa, in bulgaria they are making very beautiful dresses but i'd rather buy it from there, i'm not getting my laptop with me cause they told me it can be confiscated so i dont want to risk it...

HD, enjoy your coffee dear, let us know how was your day

Hugs for all

David and i both have birthdays in August but im a virgo hes a leo.

We travelled with a laptop many times and never had any problems seems like most people carry laptops as long as u take it out of the case when going through security.

I bought my dress on ebay oooh it beautiful and a bargain too, made to measure for £40

I had a mate buy dresses off ebay, turned out well for her, but i could just not even comprehend doing it lol!

I have no idea how i am going to get my stuff to the states, Chris is coming out with only one suitcase at xmas time, so I am going send a suitcase full of clothes and stuff with him over, perhaps if im prepared to part with it i may send my dress with him too - in a big black bag so he can't peak lol.

I suppose I will have to start looking into frieght company for the rest of the stuff i can't really send on the plane. Im going to have to make a day where i sit down and sort all my stuff into piles, store with parents, send to chris and chuck to the trash/red cross.

Hope everyone enjoys their wednesdays night all

[Bulgarican 0]

Yeah Good idea Mara, i'll ship some of my stuff too as soon as i get the visa,

my summer clothes, winter i'll take with me

Nite nite go have sweet dreams for your life in USA

[HappyDancer 7]

Dani, Mara's right. Been travelling with a laptop for a while now in and out of the US and I never had problems. It's just a bit of a hassle though coz you have to take it out of the bag for the scanner. But overall you should be fine dear. Or if not, you can leave it and buy one in the states for the most recent upgrade.

My dress is huge with the ruffles and the peticoat - may have to send it in a package along with the wedding giveaways... or maybe I coould just handcarry it with me and be at peace that I am sure my gown will arrive safely with me. I will be travelling with my daughter too so I guess we shall see. I am definitely more excited with the honeymoon. hehehe. We'd be headed to Gatlinburg, TN and maybe the coasts of NH for a good pre-summer dip.

How's everybody?

i already had one from ebay it was beautiful also but i couldnt wait, i put it on and made david look and see if it fit right, course since then we seemed to be cursed.

So i went ahead and bought a new one.
