Anwesha: Great news! That's so soon. How totally lovely that his family is coming out, too! Are you going to take them for a little bit of sight-seeing, as well? Have they even been to India before?

Hey guys, know I haven't checked in for a while, but would like to share my little mental note to the London embassy:

"Dear American Embassy. Thank you for tripling the production costs for my visa. I mean, I really didn't think $131 was enough to pay to make a bit of paper with some sticky stuff on the back. $350 seems far more reasonable. And to be honest I thought £800 was really a bit cheap for you to deal with a bit of paperwork. £1000 sounds about right. And hey, here's an idea, how about you charge me another £1500 to stay in the country once I get married? Oh, wait, you've already thought of one.

Yours in bankruptcy, Miss Jess."

(if you didn't realise, got my letter today saying they've put the MRV up. :'()

That's right! We will be marriage buddies

Anwesha: Great news! That's so soon. How totally lovely that his family is coming out, too! Are you going to take them for a little bit of sight-seeing, as well? Have they even been to India before?

It is their first time outside the country I think ! And I think it is very sweet of them to come all the way for just meeting my family you know.I am very excited,a little nervous,seems like I shoulder the entire responsibility of presenting to them India and Indians,and we can sometimes be a very over-whelming lot

It sucks Miss Jess! Wish you had jumped onto the before-doomsday-struck bandwagon

It is indeed a steep price hike and not easy on your already tight pockets.I hope you dont combust though,we will all terribly be less spunkier without you,ya know!

Happy dress shopping! It sure beats visa shopping x

Hello lovely family,

Just wanna let ya'all know that ma Lady HandA, not to be confused with Lady GaGa, got her visa today in her HandA

I don't know what those Pharaohs of Egypt have been smoking, but Lady HandA's quick visa delivery (7 days)has even awaken some mummies

DogHandler, as you designated family T man , let that fool AR and MD know that he has to be mummified first before he can be adapted from that other CSV Nov09 family

Ok time for me to party!!!!!

Hey guys, me ish back lol

ok, here is my review :

Saturday :

Flight was kinda long, but watched 3 movies and some food documentary bout pancakes and bacon n eggs lol, and it was ok

My POE was Charlotte NC, luckily, 50% of the plane was US citizen, and 40% was old slow foreign frenchies lol, so I run to the "visitor" line, and passed the checking point in less then 10 min. He asked random questions bout my resident country, what i do for work, why am I here and where will I live. He was nice . He kept my passport and took the brown envelope, and gave me a number, number 1 lol. I was the only K1 visa on the plane. But he told me that an officer will come and help me with my luggage, and he never did

I went to wait for my luggage. I got my 3 bags and 1 of my 2 boxes in like 10 min, but had to wait 25 min for my last box who came all smashed . but luckily, the tape hold it all together . Then I went to the second checkpoint, pushing my 2 caddies. The guy at the counter called an officer to help me . They saw I was exhausted, so the guy just told me about the 1 time entry and the "get married in less then 90 days", passed my luggage in the scanner. I'm lucky they didn't inspected them, cos I had to sit on my bags to close them lol, if they try to open them, it'll kaboom and my undies will fly all over the airport

I was the last one to leave the checking point. If it wasn't for my broken box, the POE would have taken like less then 20 min.

My baby was waiting for me and what we did is personal lol

My first impression? "OMG, so many restaurants ". like 10 every half a mile. You can never die from hunger in this country lol.

Once we got home, Mirra (the rotty) was so excited and started licking me and cuddling with me, Elly (the lab) was a bit shy. licking my feet from time to time.

We went out for dinner, I asked for a "small" salad, I got a huge salad, enough for 4 lol. and the "Do you want a box to take home with you" is new to me . Atleast less food wasting. and ... an 8$ tip for a 30$ bill . God we frenchy are cheap on tips.

Sunday :

jet lag. resting ... grocery and essential shopping. My baby made me his special barbecue cheesy burger. soooo yummy

Monday :

Went to open a bank account. couldn't. Said I need the SSN application paper at least to do that. Will have to wait 2 weeks till after the wedding. oh well.

Went to meet Drue's Sister and family. It was their 13 year wedding anniversay. They invited us out for pizza ... for two 24 inch pizza . omg, how am I gonna loose some weight with all that fattening food . I barely could finish one slice.

I started to do 1 hour of Wii fit plus everyday, but I don't think it'll be enough to burn all that lol.

We played a word guessing game. I'm surprised I was pretty good at it, even tho I didn't understand the "saying" sentences and some words lol. Was just saying words I heard on TV and they were like "wow, how do you know those words"

Tuesday :

My baby is back to work. So I'm relaxing. Playing with fetch with the doggies. They both are taking good care of their mommy . Elly gives mommy daily toes and feet care (licking them lol), and Mirra gives mommy daily "120 pounds rotty lap massage" (she thinks she is a lap dog lol). but they are both so cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Elly always lays down next to me, follows me around in the house. I just love her.

lol, Mirra is snoring right now. She is something lol.

I'm just having the most wonderful time ever. My baby is taking so good care of me.

Thanks guys for everything

Can't wait to read for your wonderful reviews on moving/having your hubbies moving to the US.

The civil wedding is in 2 weeks. I have no idea on what to do , what to prepare. Anyone knows a good wedding cake bakery or something? or where to find nice/simple wedding decoration in SC?. help

love you guys

Edit : wooooooooooooooooooooo for HandA visa in hand. when is she coming over?

Was the account to be in your name only? - They probably do need a SSN in this case.

We already have a joint account and just needed my passport number to open it (they do want my SSN as soon as i get it though). I guess that as long as they can keep track of 1 of us they'll find the other.
