LOVE STORY brendan and claudia <3

So this is my story,

I'm from panama, one day I decided to go on this crazy journey called AU PAIR by CULTURAL CARE "they don't really care at all" and signed up for the program which it's about cultural exchange and studying and of course work as a nanny 10 hrs or more a day.

well just to understand my story I moved to use with a j1 visa, I had an amazing year with this american family who thanks GOD treated me like their own daughter, well at the end of my first year I thought of staying and extending my visa for one more year (as an au pair with a j1 visa you can deff extend for 1 more year and I DID well Im happy I did cause on November 2011 I met the man of my life... <3

After ignoring him for almost a month I gave him a chance and we met and OMG THANK GOD I GAVE HIM A CHANCE CAUSE IF NOT I WOULD HAVE MISSED ONE OF A KIND LOVER AND GENTLEMAN!

we started to date and everything was going right.. but guess what it was time to go home for me and we didn't want to separate!! we didn't talk a lot about me going away cause we didn't want to get all sad, we dated for a lil while and we had fun times and well the time went by fast till one day i went over his apt. and we watched this amazing and sad movie about a cple from diff countries dating and GOD it got us we both started to cry and decided to talk! at this point i never thought he was gonna ask me to get married anyways at first we didn't even think it was gonna be a serious thing but with the time we got involved and well one JULY 18TH he proposed yes he did in a car haha I give him credit he took me to the beach first but I did;nt even imagine he was gonna propose since i waited for so long haha ! well after the beach we got stuck in traffic in I think its 1-95s and we were singing and being lovely when he started to tell me that he loves me and he won't let me go and blahblah and voila he proposed I was in shock!!!!! I actually said yes an ya after that well i can say this was one of my best decisions i ever made !! we r so in love.. but there is a big problem we live in different places since on augus2012t he told me to move together to my country panama and things didn't go good for us with work down here so we decided to move to us again...

WE FILLED OUR PAPERWORK AND SENT IT ON MARCH WE GOT OUR NOA1 AND WE STILL WAITING FOR OUR NOA2 which I think its gonna take a while cause we r applying for this visa and we married just 7 months ago.

i LOVE HIM AND MISS HIM SO MUCH... AND I just wanna give you guys and advice!! DON'T EVER SEPARATE FROM THE ONE YOU LOVE THINK BEFORE YOU TAKE A DECISION AND MAKE THINGS RIGHT !

AFTER ALL WE STILL HAVE ALL OUR LIFE TO BE TOGETHER BUT DAMNN I MISS HIM!

I'LL KEEP YOU POST WHEN I GET MY NOA2!! CANT WAIT

Moved from Process & Procedures to Progress Reports.

well, there's 'moving' and then there's 'immigrating' ..

if you decide to immigrate to the USA, well, he's started on the path with filing the I-130 petition, so that's a plus.

Might want to check the visa stamp in yer passport, see if any annotation of 'H.R.R.' there, or no.

oh jeez Im spanish ya thats the right way to say it immigrate its doesn't sound that good haha! ya we did like 2 months ago and we sent it we re just waiting but it feels like its been a while I would love to see my NOA2 in the next 2 months !!!

ya I checked that panamanians don't have to stay in USA for 2 years after having a j-1 visa which its good for me

I wonder how long this process takes I don't want to be here for more than a year missing him
