Who cares about ratings? Not me. You could give me all the minuses in the world...no big deal.

As for some of the other comments, I totally agree. I mean, if you applied in May and got approval, posting in the April thread is like rubbing it in our faces. Not cool. I was also getting very annoyed at seeing May applicants get AORs and approvals before us Aprilicants. I know it wasn't their fault, but still, think of what the people who have been waiting so long must be going through...

To the Aprilicants still waiting...try your best to stay positive and know that you will get approved very, very soon! I know the feeling...it was very hard the last week...but we made it through and I know all of you will too!

Chins up everyone...I predict a wave of approvals tomorrow and Friday!!!

Go April!

Yeah its been hard for me to see people in May get approval as well. I actually had to take an immigration vacation for a while because it was getting to me so much. It made me feel better but now I am really wanting to see some movement in our file. Its tough to wait three months and watch others get approved in half the time. Anywho, I really do hope we see our files being looked at this week. Even if its not me I will be very happy to see one of us get approval! :)
