Hi Vjs..

thank you so much for the prayers.. i really had a nice flight last nigh.. im usually scared of flying.. but having the 13 hour-flight, i got used o the idea... it was actually a smooth flight.. Kudos to the Captain.. GreAt job.. :dance:

.. Here's what happened last night at the POE:

we went first to the immigration, it was along line actually,,,the officer in the immigration was i think an indian national,, but she was nice.. she asked me where and when did my fiance and i met...also how long do we know each other.. got my finger scanned and my picture taken..then i get to have the I-194 attached in my passport.. (it expires on November 06, 2008) then i have to wait for like an hour for my baggage to be in the carousel.. i was able to carry them in and out of the cart (its funny coz they are really heavy) :angry:

then i get to go the customs, i was asked to get to LANE A.. to have my baggage checked, when it was done, i asked one of the guys in there where is next, he said exit.. so i did fell in line for the exit, when the officer checked out my paper.. he said i have to got o lane A,, i said i already did.. he said you are lying... hold on a second??? im lying???? i told him i wasnt lying why would i lie? then i get to the exit of LANE A and told the guy he should put a stamped on it so i would be tagged as a liar..he apologized and did the stamping and didnt checked my baggage anymore im surprise (what if i had other peoples baggage?) hmmm

Then when i came out of LAX after 2 hours, im scared that MIke is not going to be there, so i asked one of the police in there of a ohone booth so i can make a call to my fiance.. but before i got to the booth, mike is coming towards me holding a bouquet of flowers, ballons, and a teddybear with a little bag and some chocolates in there.. (that was sweet of him) i think after that long hauled flight illbe exhausted, but when i saw mike with his new clothes looking hansdome as ever, i cried of relief.. (he told me he got scared that i was about to call him you know and say that i backed out of the wedding and not call me anymore,,) well it was all worth it (so far)

we grab a bite a very quick one and went to his parents house, finally meet his dad.. and find a gift waiting for me.. its a basket of spa things from his aunt.. that was nice of her to do so.. i dont know her yet, but i will meet her tomorrow.. its my FIL-to be's birthday.

by the way just a little update: i got my wedding dress today, with the accessories.. (its gorgeous) i think it was made for me.. heheheheh the MIL-to be paid for it.. thank Goodness... driving around LA is weird.. nothing like the PI, i nmea being here is weird.. it felt weird.. not my turf you know but i hope i van get used to it...

Hanny said i shoud get an SSN before i get married so i can have a job soon (anyone have done this?) thank you so much!

Until next udates guys,, have a good one..

Ruchie applied for her SSN 2 weeks after she arrived here. You need to give them time to put you into their system. She got the SSN in her maiden name and changed it after we got married. She took the Marriage License to the SSA office to show them the name change and they issued her a new one in her married name. It arrived about 7 to 10 days later... You will need to file your AOS, so you can get your EAD to work. It's best to wait to go to work when you have your EAD in hand.....
