LANDED - 1

Currently there are 2 April and 3 May waiting for PPR, 3 less then last week, and a few early 2012 and late 2011 applicants who seem to be stuck in the remed process.. seems like this affects Thundersoul, Faith45, Annarella, ronynotada and emrn, among others I'm sure.

My Magical Rooster has gotten all his predictions correct minus one, and has been saved from the stew pot! Too bad, because he is a native rooster and extremely tasty as ihaw-ihaw or inasal for the wife of Doljan!

To save his own feathers, this is what he has to say for next week:

Visa for GoCo09, , Arnel (April), lyndonyumague (May) Krusmaryosep, Gimizz (June), Cade, Pinyako ( may)

PPR: Like like (June) clossyclan (July)

I also predict that I will get a PPR. I know it seems like another week away, but I read my horoscope for this week and it says something like "Just when you thought lady luck had forgotten you, get ready for some good news this week!" I don't usually take horoscopes seriously, but this psychic lady in the paper has always gotten it right.. it's pretty creepy. Even more creepy then her profile pic which is from the 60's.

Below are Iay's predictions. I didn't know you had a rooster! I will bet her an ensaymada at Vancouver Goldilock's! Let's see what happens..

your predictions made me laugh..a good start for a week by d way i was in process since mar. 1.

Good luck Cade for your visa tomorrow :
@ luckyman, drink a lot of tubig or san mig! I prefer red horse myself. Once when my partner fell asleep on the couch I decided to try his red horse to see if I liked it. I took the whole bottle and downed it while floating in our kiddie's pool on an air mattress in the front yard. He woke up an hour later and was like.. what happened here :-X THEN the balut guy cycled by and I was like 'hssst! over here!' First time I ever worked up the nerve to try Balut. That's what a liter of 7% beer can do. :
Good thing the neighbours were all asleep, I'm entertaining enough for them during the day

 

[Luckyman]

Haha... Well... Plenty of San mig light over here... But as for balut, I don't think that will ever happen.

I'm glad to see that manila office is on FIRE! usually they pound out pprs for a week then none for a week... But they've been consistently processing for 3 weeks now.... Maybe they got there new system down... Who knows.

It looks like there may be a slim chance to get a medical extention for us... But I'm not going to bet on it.

Cheers all!

Yes... and "Amen" to the Red Horse (I never could or did enjoy a whole bottle of San Mig). But Red Horse?! That's the one we should be importing.

San Mig smells.. it makes my body smell Although as a girl I can tolerate a bottle San Mig Lite much better then those horrible vodka coolers. 8)

Just order it now from the NSO, and they will request it with your passport in Manila.
