Okay, so the last week, CSC was touching my application!! Yeah, I thought wow, I'm getting our approval! I got so excited and started telling my family and everyone that I thought our approval was coming within a week. Maybe I was too hopeful, but turns out they only touched it becuase the NOA1 that was supposed to be sent months ago never came, so they re printed it and sent it out. Bummer, I'm so depressed right now, I feel the big cloud of hopelessness taking over. Is is normal to feel this way? Sometimes I feel lilke I will never get to the day when the approve it. And even more people keep asking"so when's the wedding??" I don't even know what to say.........."ummmm I'm waiting on a visa!" What is this world coming to!!! That people who are in love can't be together with out the government allowing it!!!! I'm just venting of course, but really though!
I need to see the light at the end of the tunnel soon, because I feel like I'm going into the big black hole.

I can totally understand the feeling of being touched. Sometimes I feel like I am being touched to death. Then like now, I have not been touched in 23 days and I wonder what happened....I feel like I am losing my mind. It does not help that it has been 181 days since I last saw Dris and it is the beginning of Ramadhan. As much as I wish he was here with me, I also wish I was in Morocco during Ramadhan to share it with him there. Sometimes I think that touch we wait for is worse then not being touched because just like you, we get our hopes so high. Then, they come crashing down. But on the bright side

eventually hopefully we will all get that one touch that is our approval.
Good luck and I hope your next touch is your approval
