UGH! Stop. At the risk of being flamed by everyone, and being a visajourney member myself, I still have to ask if you guys could keep this stuff offline and off the forum? This can't be the only way y

I can only imagine the dread that April and May filers must be thinking. The same things we did when we saw February people waiting 200 days. The denial... "Oh, surely they will catch up by us?" or th

In honor of the amazing super fast VSC rep holding our case hostage, I've written a poem. It is to the tune of "You're a Mean One, Mister Grinch". I call it, "Ode to Mister Sloth". You're a slow one,

The only thing that sucks about it is that you still have to change your name on it after the wedding, which is why most people wait till then. But it definitely helps you getting stuff (like a bank account, phone, etc.). I am going to wait till after the wedding, though.

it is 1.30 am for me now, so friday - which means i am leaving TOMORROW!!!!! i am very excited, but it is also very very hard to leave everyone behind and an awkward feeling generally. i think i am going through all the emotions there are in the world at the same time.... but i will be fine once i am on the plane!

the last few days before the departure go by REALLY fast! it's weird, since time went by sooo slow before for months! good luck for everyone's journey! :) youre all very close too!

@andie: i am keeping my fingers crossed for you to get it all very very soon!!!!!!! i keep thinking about you guys and how unfair this process is.... hope it all gets sorted out!

I can understand the mixed emotions going on at this point ... it makes me wonder how early emigrants coped with leaving in sailing ships - we have the benefits of modern technology with quick flights, internet, skype etc.. and now everyone has a good excuse to travel to see you.

Very best wishes ... and thanks for your kind thoughts.. hopefully all will be resolved soon. Have a good flight and take care. Looking forward to reading your updates
