i think yaya is from jordan.

My mp office just called me omggggggg. I felt like I was talking to someone with alzheimer. She was telling me the exact same words she told me last time , she was going over the file. Then I told her I think we already went over this and I gave you his file number to check where we are standing. She said yes I know I was just making sure that there's no improvement since last week. WHAT IMPROVEMENT !!! Then she told me AGAIN the file processing time is 13 months and that I might have to wait till FEBRUARY 2012 !!!!!!! THis is too depressing
NAGZ OMG FEB 2012 !!! is this lady on crack!!!!! thats way past 13months !!!!??!!! khalas this MP has no clue what she is talking about, she is contradicting herself, first she says 13months then not till feb 2012?! and asking u about improvements!!! UGHHHHHHH !!!
