OMG!!! I am so happy to write this to you VJ family... Where do I start.. Thanks to each and every one of you who stood by me and my fiancé with either help... understanding and prayers. I am beat up and down but survived to tell the happy ending. I could not wait to get back to the hotel to let you all know the results. I will write a detailed review after I get some sleep. 8 hours in a car on Jamaican roads is no JOKE. the drive was worse then the interview lol. I am sure a few of you know what I am saying... anyways I got to give a special thanks to TBONE TX, EBULOWA, DWHEELS, ASHLEY, JAMERICAN GIRL, PINKERLON JAWAREE and and KEMTAM.... without you I am sure I would have not been able to handle the Stokes today. Oh and TBONE.... They asked us about our sex life SMH.. a few times. but its over and we are victorious. I am happy to help anyone who may be faced with the same situation. Read my review tomorrow!
