I'd like to congratulate all the October Companions who finally arrived to the PPR shore. It is a stressful and nerve hammering wait. I am still waiting and the
PNP rain feels like hearing a waterfall while starving in the desert. Keep the patient wait.
I'd like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that, although the pre-immigration phase is stressful and needs a lot of wait and patience, the trip to Canada is a very serious and sudden change in life. Everything, EVERYTHING will be different in your new life. Those who are already in Canada know what I am talking about. It is a very positive change in most ways, but also needs a serious effort for coping and integrating with the society in Canada. It would take a lot of effort moving your life, and a lot of effort building a new life. However, it would be a very rewarding effort for you and your beloved ones.
My advice to every one is to spend the hard PPR-wait days preparing his plans. Preparing a mindset and a cultural recognition for this new life. It is also vital to research job market.
It is also very important to determine where you would like to spend your life in Canada. Do you like big cities and their life style? You would probably need lots of money and traffic patience
. Do you like the quiet dreamy areas in the north? You'd probably need to cope with the older, less foreign cultures-oriented Canadians a lot, and also find a quiet not-so-booming job there.
TL;DR: PPR is the shell of your new life. Once penetrated, welcome to the pretty hard life-building days!
And pray for me. AOR 27th - PNP Inland - No changes since Nov 18. GCMS gave some confidence.
