Philippines - We met during our time in High School. We shared the same classes (4th year High School) and had a lot of conversations until our feelings for each other was developed. We started going steady on October 05, 2004. Since then, we have been inseparable. We attended the same university during our college years and shared the same classes as nursing students.
In December of 2009, Donnel went back to USA for work. We have corresponded via facebook, yahoo messenger, and skype. Please note that we use Skype and Yahoo Messenger for our voice and video chat; while we use facebook for non-video chats.
In September of 2010, Donnel traveled back to Philippines and took the first step by becoming engaged. He proposed to me last October 09, 2010, which I accepted. Donnel stayed in the Philippines for more than a month and spent those times with me. We have talked about marriage, our future, and building our lives together.
I have dreamed of being with Donnel since the day I fell in love with him. I would like to be given an opportunity to be with him and carry out the plans we have laid out for each other. We plan to get married in USA where he was raised as soon as I am permitted by the US Consul.
Follow our journey! :)
Update:
I got my visa on September 07, 2012 and went to USA on October 11,2012. We got married on October 22,2012 at Bridgeview, Illinois.

OCTOBER 30, 2016 (2:42pm) - Our bundle of joy is born at MetroSouth Medical Center in Blue Island, IL.
too bad we received an RFE.. but at least someone finally touched our case.. we are still waiting for the hardcopy of the mail to see what we need to submit..
My fiance was not able to include his itinerary, ticket, boarding passes and copies of passport pages in our original package. He just sent copy of our pictures together... But in our RFE reply, he included everything that will prove that we met last September to November 2010..
