Sorry I missed the party =0( BUT CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR OUTCOME! I hope your checks clear soon!!!!

i'm SOOOOOOOOO sorry to keep everyone waiting! i'm touching that a lot of you care what out outcome was! i began housesitting for a friend this morning and couldn't figure out how in the world to get online with her comp but something i did finally worked! (unplugging and replugging the modem and other fiddling with plugs worked.)

anyway... abdelilah called and said everything went great!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance: the woman said congrats and that they will call him once the name checks are complete!

the same woman who was there last time was there and was much nicer this time. she apologized for the problems and sent him right in. the interviewer only spoke english (apparently all the other ones are bi or tri lingual?) so he decided to give it a go and do it all in english....and it went great!!!!! she asked him why i travel so much (guess she looked at all the stamps in my passport), asked him what i do for a living, if i had siblings, what does he plan to do when he gets to the us, and a few other random questions i can't think of. i'm so proud of abdelilah for being so great at english. when we met, he spoke only a few sentences. he's definitely come a long way to be able to do an entire interview in english!

thanks for all the well wishes and support! i was in the chat room for an hour or so last night and i guess i came right after most of you were in there! i'm still adjusting to west coast time. hehe. thanks to those of you who kept me company!
