Recommended Posts

My fiancee's manila interview was Feb. 13th, and today, (Monday, Feb., 19th), I was here at here house in Tanza and signed for her visa and brown envelope. Time for her to resign from her job and go to CFO and then it is onward to the US on April 22nd. I hope everyone who is still waiting for their visa can just be patient and everything will work out. Thank you visajourney and all of the members for your help through all of this. I was just lucky enough to be here in the Phils since November, 2006, to help her through her part of the process.

BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT YOU CAN RUIN THE PRESENT BY WORRYING OVER THE FUTURE

TRIP.... OVER LOVE, AND YOU CAN GET UP

FALL.... IN LOVE, AND YOU FALL FOREVER

I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, JUST NOT THE ABILITY

LIKE THE MEASLES, LOVE IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN IT COMES LATER IN LIFE

LIFE IS NOT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE, ITS THE WAY IT IS

I MAY NOT BE WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT IM SURE NOT WHERE I WAS

"Love is a noble act of self-giving, offering trust, faith, and loyalty.

The more you love, the more you lose a part of yourself, yet you don't become less of who you are;

you end up being complete with your loved ones."
