I'm very happy for Pen, at the same time I feel sad for me.. I was holding on to the hope that Pen and I will get updates at the same time ..
So assuming that Maksi is not active anymore thus I have no way of knowing if she already has her visa, I am officially the only member left in January CEM batch who has no update whatsover. This is so sad.

as much as i wanted to say everything will be alright, in due time, in God's time, but I know how it feels to look at the clock at the calendar at the ecas website to look for updates everyday. waiting really kills our sanity.

peli, i'll just give you my online hug.

take my advice...

pray, you will feel better.

Batchmates. I'm on my second month here in Canada at palamig na ng palamig bawat araw, transition stage na ata between summer at fall. Miss ko na mga kaibigan at kamag anak ko sa Pilipinas. =(

hmm upon check in sa Naia Terminal 2, may binigay lang yung PAL ground crew sa akin na departure form asking for small information about me and my destination (about 1/4 sheet of regular bond paper size) then either sa check in counter or sa immigration counter ko binigay yung form.

then while on my way to Vancouver from NAIA terminal 2, may binigay naman yung flight attendant na Arrival Declaration Form (this one obviously was provided by the Canadian Government). Then ibinigay ko siya sa first counter na pupuntahan ko upon arrival. =)

Hi guys... woke up so early at 5:30 am, decided to check hubby's ecas and im very happy to see my Canadian city and province showing as his home address. I had to rub my eyes just to be sure I'm not just seeing things. Even though it still says Application received, i know through others' experiences that it will be changed to Decision made in a few days. Thank you Lord God. :D
