As I write this, Im leaving behind all the painful memories I had in this journey. My dear vj friends, this is it! Im not dreaming, my visa is finally here!!! :dance::dance::dance:

As corny as it may sound, please allow me to make my ala Oscar awards speech.

First of all, I would like to say that I have forgiven my first consul (its so amazing what a visa can do huh? lol!) and my scumbag ex. All is forgiven and forgotten now. My journey hasn't been smooth as everyone knows, but it was not entirely horrible. For one, it made me become matured and I gained knowledge. In fact, there were lawyers and one judge who asked me if I studied law because I know a lot about annulments. HAHAHA! Another thing, I gained friends and these are quality friends. I got a lot of PMs giving me support and offering help and prayers. In this regard, I would like to mention a few people. You are all part of my story...

PINAYWIFE- the Gabriela Silang of the Philippines forum, my mentor (like my kung fu master, hahaha!)

dbears- my batchmate (January filer), one of the vjers that caught my attention the first time I joined vj cuz she always makes sense without being arrogant, and also my spiritual adviser. Thank you for always dropping by to ask how I am and for the support and being there to congratulate me.

Kathryn41- from Canada forum. Thank you for your inspiring words.

ManilaIdaho- my instant bestfriend. You will be amazed at how this lady handles her problem- with laughter. She cheered me up during my down days.

Honeybadger- we have the same consul and that's an icebreaker for us. We both had nightmares after the interview. Hey, we can laugh about it now.

Nickoftime- my instant attorney! Offered to help me when I was having problems with my documents. She didnt send me a bill! HAHAHA! Joke lang attorney!

JoseRizal- my analyst and psychologist! My napakasakit kuya eddie listener! Kuya, don't ask me why you. You helped not only me but a lot of people.

Jamesnrei- for starting a thread that helped a lot of people. I was at the top of your list but I know you felt bad that I stayed at the top for so long! HAHAHA!

Mike & Zandy- Zandy cried with my story. They would always PM me and still remembered to congratulate me.

And to everyone (you know who you are) who cried with me, laughed with me, offered help and support and prayed for me, I cant thank you enough.

Also, I would like to say a few words about my fiancee... Stephen had always been positive about this journey. I never really felt that he lost faith that we will get it. The process was so difficult but the relationship is stress free! I think that's how we survived. Stephen would always say- "I will wait as long as it takes Ria because you are the only woman for me". This is the preview of the man that I am going to marry. This is how I know that we will last a lifetime!

And the most important of all... God. Thank you so much. With you nothing is impossible. Thank you for the wonderful Christmas gift. Thank you for the miracle!

In behalf of my fiancee Stephen, I would like to thank the awrd giving bodies for giving me "The LEGEND" award! :lol::lol:

Rhia, you really deserve it! Congratulations sis! It's a long journey but it's worth it! Go girl!!!
