To my fellow VJ'ers(F)

After a few months of preparations and waiting, and weeks of sleepless nights, we finally made it! :dance: I had my interview yesterday and I was approved!!! :thumbs: I still feel the butterflies in my tummy and I still feel like jumping for joy. haha.

I just wanna thank you, guys for all the help and assistance. Foremost, I am sooo grateful to God for making this possible for us. Kev and I wouldn't have gone this far without His help. My experiences during the medical examinations at St. Lukes and during the interview at the embassy were both great and worth remembering. Had I not only gained friends around, I also find the people inside so accommodating and friendly.

To those who are still in process, Good Luck! and know you'll make it, too!!! :thumbs:
