Worst day EVER.

Sometimes, no matter how much you try your hardest, if it wasn't meant to be, it will never be.
TODAY, was one of the many days in 2014 I could never forget. You know that feeling of excitement and nervousness all in one, and then bad news sets in and you felt like your whole body just under went liposuction? (eventhough I have not actually done one)

Well, that was how I felt today, my hubby was supposed to be on board a plane to California tonight but because he wasn't able to attend a Commission on Foreign Overseas (CFO) seminar on family and marital life, he wasn't able to be cleared at the Philippine immigration counter and therefore forfeited his whole expensive ticket to LA. For a stupid #CFO sticker.... one of the many money making useless laws Philippines have, my husband won't be able to spend holidays with me. No wonder Philippines is called a corrupt country and it will always be.

Emigrants coming to America don't need to be lectured on how to run a family. I might be mad so I don't see no purpose on this, but to be thrown offboard just for this stupid family seminars that take only 4hours to complete and cost 400php and all you get is a sticker saying you attended, is a sure waste of time. They don't need it here in America. America can care less about this stupid shit, they have other important things to worry about.

Plane ticket refunded? NO. Rebooked? YES, but with a fine of 7,000php for non use. See what I mean? Everything is money-making in Philippines. And to think I was born there. How unfortunate.

Nakakahiya.

Overjoyed.

Manila US embassy interview is finally done! He did it. Oh my one of our happy moments and counting today. I'm so happy! Second to the last step is over with, now he is just waiting for his green card visa and we can finally be together, for good.

This is how we love.... expensive! hahaha! I'm hoping he can spend Christmas here but the visa takes at least 2 weeks so I don't think he can make in time for the holidays. It would be super nice to spend our first Christmas together as a couple though. Our deal was, if his visa comes before Christmas, he will spend it here, if not then he will come after Christmas, well not much of a choice there is it? :)

I'm just thankful to our God the Father for making all things possible for us and for our love. Never in a million years did I expect a LOVE like this. Everything in life has its time and place. Ours is now.

RUBY

Due to the storm, RUBY that hit parts of the Philippines this weekend, my hubby's set interview today, Dec 8 was cancelled. My poor hubby was already there at Manila US embassy at 6am all nervous and all, only to find the news. I was disappointed at the embassy because they said they posted it on their website, I mean, they could have emailed or phoned people who has set appointments that day that it's going to be cancelled.

Oh well, even respected US institution can crumble their ways, especially when they are situated in other countries. Bad move. But on the contrary, my hubby called up the embassy and they told him that interviews for today are all moved to Friday, Dec12 with the same time. Another 4 more days of torture.

That means, he might not be able to be here in time for Christmas. Bummer.
