The NVC October Moral Support/Ranting Thread

[Soloenta 2,218]

HAHAHAHA! My husband tells me that all the time. "We are all AMERICANS!" He says we don't have a real country name, just a state of being!

He likes to call us Usanians

Always listen to your husband! We don't let others change what is unchangeable if others want to feel better than us and thus separate so be it be we are Americans and proud of it. Even prouder to be South American hahahahaa. Hey I love all of America every single inch of it. We are brothers and sisters and it's a shame people are unaware of the truth. If you look at the old books you will see this, the 7 continent c r a p is fairly recent I would say lat ten to 15 years. Anyway what ever make all of you from where ever you are happy go for it. But I know the truth and will stick by it.

[Soloenta 2,218]

Well, some Americans might think that Canada is the 51st state that belongs to the US....

But.... the truth is... Liz (Queen Elizabeth II from England) owns Canada.

Nope, Barack doesn't own Canada.

:rofl: :rofl: Hahahaa no, no that's NOT what I mean ahahahaa but you know if you guys keep marrying each other it will be.

New week! Woohoooooo!

InshAllah it brings loads and loads of happiness for us all! :yes:

Thank God, some tiny bit of hope.

Nope you are just because they tell you in the USA it's so doesn't make it so. http://www.usaisnotamerica.com/

I guess is a matter of "which theory you were exposed to":

"To further confuse things, different parts of the world teach different versions of the continents. The seven-continent model is usually taught in China and most English speaking countries. A six continent model combining Europe and Asia is preferred by the geographic community, the former parts of the USSR, and Japan. Another six continent model combining North and South America is taught in Latin America and most of Europe.

The answer to what is a continent is more by convention than strict definition. Hopefully, this will help to clear some of the confusion that you had before you started reading this article"

Heeeeeeey! Congrats!!!!!!!! Seriously, Soloenta will have the most celebrated CC ever seen on this VJ when her time comes (hopefully it will be soon).

Many many congrats and hope your interview will be soon.

Where in Jamaica are you from? My hubby and I went ther last year and stayed at Negril. OMG, time of our lives! )))

My profile pic was taken there, btw!

Thank you! I am actually the petitioner and I'm in ol' dried up northern California but my hubby is from Sandy Bay, Jamaica. You probably went through it on your way to Negril from Sangster Airport. I love Negril too! Beautiful cliffs and beaches.

Congratulations sweetie.

Thank you so much!

Cool! My husband is from Southern California (Los Angeles) and our apartment is in Orange county. I really can't complain about there, even with the dry weather.

Yeah, Jamaica has its unique scenarios and life style which I loved! Lucky you to go there once a while visit your husband's family

In the other thread there's a 08/19 scan date CC.

Wooooooooooooowwwww hurry uppppp NVC! It would be lovely to have approvals of September scan dates by the end of this month!!! (Dreaming is free right?)

Yes one of the few things that are. I'm still praying everyone gets their CC's and interviews soon.

[samreen23 461]

I got a case complete today! Scan date was August 18. I am sooooo relieved to be done with the NVC phase but I am also sad for people like Soloenta, who have been waiting so long. I wish everyone the best and hope that you get yours soon! One love!

Wowaa that's an amazing news and it's Monday!! Hopefully it's gonna be a superb week! Way to go Nvc!!!

Just to add my 2 cents on this interesting topic here ... the number of continents is taught differently around the world. Some countries combine the Americas (though this notion is widely outdated due to modern political territories), and some combine Europe and Asia as "Eurasia." Some don't even call Australia by its country's name and label it as "Oceania." In the US, we were taught there were 7 continents, so as a majority, we would say that North America and South America are different continents.

From Olympic website: On the Olympic flag, the rings appear on a white background. Combined in this way, the six colours of the flag represent all nations. It is a misconception, therefore, to believe that each of the colours corresponds to a certain continent.

Also, the 5 rings on the Olympic flag do not represent the number of continents. They represent the colors reflected in every country's flag around the world.

Hey guys! I posted in the other thread but noone seemed to have an answer for me... my husband and i have gotten that 60 day email 6 times already. The 5th being last week and the 6th today... has anyone else experienced this? Should i be concerned?

Thanks!

It's just glitch and they have nothing better to do, they keep sending me change of address in the mail hahahahaa did that almost 6 months ago and I get one like clock work every two to three weeks. Can you imagine the money they would save by not sending so much nonsense to us? So don't worry it's nothing.

And to the thread

Beautifully stated.

No one is wrong here because we were all taught differently, and we will believe what we learned - sorta like Pluto being a planet!
