My husband and I are soooooooooo happy! :dance: :dance: :dance:

I arrived at USEM around 6:30AM (my schedule was 7:00). the friendly guard asked for my appointment letter and ID then he asked if i have cellphone, i said "i don't have it", then he said "how about ipod?" i jokingly replied to him "i don't have ipod but i have playstation here with me :D ", then he just looked at me and smiled.

Everything went smooth and easy (from passing the DS Forms upto finger scanning) til i reached the pre-screening. I thought the pre-screener was nice and friendly caz she started to greet me good morning. She then asked me to hand her the NBI Clearance, Marriage Certificate and Birth Certificate but then she became rude when she saw that the receipts were still attached to the papers. She asked me "why do you have receipts here? are you going to reimburse this papers?" but then i answered her in a nice tone "oh sorry caz i thought it is needed". The second thing she asked for is the Tax Returns (2007) and Affidavit of Support. She asked me on why is it the Tax Returns has only 2 pages. I nicely replied "that is what the IRS sent to my husband but i think the 3rd page you are looking for is at the back of the 2nd page" she looked at the back of the paper and never said anything. I was waiting for her to ask the W2s but she didn't asked for it instead she asked me questions:

1. What is the petitioner's name?

2. What is your name?

3. When was the first time he visit you and until when?

4. When was the last time you saw him?

5. When did you get married?

She wrote all my answers in a paper then after those questions, she asked for pictures and emails. I gave all the pics and emails that i have and then she asked me to go to the waiting area. I thanked her but again she never said anything. when i sit back to the waiting area, I almost burst out from laughing remembering the reimburse thingy lol! I told myself what if i answered her "can i?" :P lol!

My number flashed on the screen and it says window 32. i was like "Oh my! the famous window 32!! :wacko: " lol! The CO was a young pretty american girl. She never smiled or even looked at me (nasayang lang ang facepowder at lipstick ko! lol!). She greeted me good morning then asked me to raise my hand and swear that i'll tell the truth blah! blah! She asked me these questions:

1. Where did you meet? ---- We met in Yahoo Literati.

2. What is that? ---- It's a Yahoo game.

3. What's the petitioner's name?

4. What's your name?

5. How old is your husband?

6. What does he do?

7. How old are you when you get married?

She browsed at the emails and pictures that i submitted while asking me those questions. After that, she told me to go back to the waiting area and wait for name to be called. It only took me 2 mins in the CO room :D i went back in the waiting area wondering if i passed or what caz the CO never said anything. At last my name was called and I was asked to go in window 37. I GOT PINK SLIP ONLY!! WOHOOOOOOOOO! I wanted to shout bec i am so happy but then thank God i was able to stopped myself or else the guard will kick me out of the embassy lol! woohhhoooooooooooo! :dance: :dance: :dance: i was teary when i got the PINK SLIP caz i know i'll be with my husband very soon! :luv:

I wanna thank all the people who helped me. Mina, Nagi, Ivory, Marie, Mariz, te ninfa, ting, te ann, heidi, te zsa, cloe at sa mga sumagot ng mga questions ko. And dami nyo sencya na hindi ko matandaan lahat hehe (wag kayo tampo ha :D). I also wanna thank Sheriiff for the helpful guide :thumbs: I met Marjo2008 in the interview, she is friendly and nice. She is also got pink slip! hooray for her!!!

Praise God! :star: He is so good! :star: WOW! i still can't believe that this is it! I will be in my husband's arms very soon :crying::luv:(L):dance::dance:

"Our Wedding Prayer"

Lord,help us to remember when we first met,and the strong love that grew between us.

To work the love into practical things so nothing can divide us

Grant us a Love that grows stronger with each passing year.

We ask for words both kind and loving

and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.

Guide us to overcome every challenge

and keep our dreams pure to each other always.

Dear Lord,we put our marriage into Your hands.Amen

If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.
