thanks everyone

i am super excited

i deposited my 131 at the scotia, with the deposit slips that you print on line

my letter with the interview date, also says to make sure its deposited before arriving, and just bring the extra two slips with you

thanks again

yaya

HEY

i did get my interview date

its march 26th, they are going to do my medical the same day

so i am leaving on the bus on friday, so ic an go visit friends on the way, and get some crocheting in

yay

my fam said if we make it through the 6months, then we deserve to be together

now its 'you sure have proved something over the last 8months'

anyways

checked the mail

nothing for me

i just want to go back to bed.... not to work, where i will be asked why i am still here, and when i am leaving at least 10times today

!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was in Van, until i tried to go to the states as a visitor, and they rejected me

I was more then done with Van at that point, so I called mom, and she got me a flight later that day to come home

i am from a very small, isolated town in northern BC

customs and everyone else in the world said 6 months for the visa

we applied in July.... its March, and i am working a #### job, in the town mall... gah

i need out so bad

i called the medical center the day i got my package. I had to leave a msg

but they called back later that day and talked to my grandma, and said that when i had my interview date to call back and ask for Laura, and she would arrange it around the date.

In my msg i said that i have to have travel time taken into consideration, cause i am busing it (by choice) its about 21.5 hrs

I did my entire package 3 in one day

its kind of easy when you live in a tiny little town, but i still had to walk everywhere.

and the bank lady took 40 min to figure out how to do my deposit.

i will definitly be doing the interview alone

are you living in van?

hi.... I'm Lindsay

I did fax it back, the next day

i did my scotia bank payment that day

also... it would be really cool to have some people on the same day

take some of the scarey stress off

when i got denied entry at Vancouver customs, there was this girl who had to go in after me

we chatted about how scary it was waiting there

then i got called

and came out bawling, and pushing my way through the entrance...

poor girl

i hope noone has to go after me

wow

that actually discouraged me more

all the july filers on that spreadsheet are already in the US, and married

and the one profiles wait on the timeline makes me want to go back to bed for the day.... next 5 months

well, it makes me feel better that we arnt the last of the July filers to just be sitting

I guess my wedding date is already to close to be possible, so i should just suck it up and wait

i am really hating this

we got it on Jan25

i recieved my package.... Feb25th, and faxed it back Feb26th

OK.... so we are July07 filers, and I still dont have my interview date

we are going through Vancouver

i faxed back the checklist and form last tuesday

and i am at the point of tears if something doesnt happen soon.

I think we are destin to hit every waitlist and backlog the USC has ever had

I really dont know what to do.... How long did other Vancouver people have to wait for their interview date?

I dont trust the doctors down here...I think they're all in it for a profit.

I havnt made it to the US YET!.... I dont know if i will get homesick for canada exactly, as much as my family. I have been living in different cities then them for 7yrs, and have to go 14+months without seeing them when i am still in the same country.

I havnt had to deal with US health care either, but I have had to deal with Canadian quite a bit, and I think that Canadian docs arnt in it at all.

I wish they wanted profit, at least it would maybe put some motivation into them.

anyways... I can not wait to be homesick

I love Cat Power but seeing her perform live made me want to demand my money back!

NO

her aloof live preformance is part of her

I did an afternoon with Cat Power, it was just over two hours of just her, a guitar and piano

after that i wanted to give her more money

and everything else i owned

I really love Tori, Fiona, CAT POWER, Ani, A fine Frenzy... and Jenny Lewis

I am actually really loving this thread.

Stars and St. Vincent are two other really good lady fronted groups

so there were some things that i knew about

ketchup chips (my 2 bestfriends promised to take care of that)

pizza pops

but dill pickle chips?

for real?

this is just getting painfull

Who's Amy Winehouse?

you are the luckiest person here

i wasnt trying to defend my education, or experience

but good try

I have to say, the notion that AW is useless cos she's a junkie is irrelevant to her music.....look at the past pioneers of music all throughout time and you will see substance abuse a plenty.

This is not something new.

i completly agree with that. But when you arnt bringing any substance to the writting, thats assuming shes even attending the writting sessions, you just become another crackie..

wheres CLoves grammys?

Spelling & punctuation would be helpful.

oh sorry, i didnt realize that i was being graded, or that that was important in any way

but while you are paying attention to me, i have a quick question

shouldnt you be protesting females like amy winehouse? i dont think they are helping your feminist cause at all

I don't have a feminist cause other than equal rights. MEN on VJ have made my choice of candidate a feminist issue, not me.

When one types in a forum/blog/Word doc/life, common sense dictates spelling & punctuation be correct.

i think the best part of this is how serious you are.

and although i just started posting, i have been here reading. Being a female, with strong EQUALIST beliefs, i find your feminazi posting very exausting

and i came to that conclusion all on my own, no VJ Male help.

now are you going to keep attacking my grammar to avoid that i also have a marketing/music background, and maybe its a little scary that someone can call you on your bull?

i am not installing spell check so that i can fake my way through, so pointing out any more grammar/typing errors is just grasping at straws.

reporting me is just going to make this way funnier

hahahha

i was just telling my grandparents this morning about amy winehouse

how shes a waste of life, and people are just eating it up

the main thing with marketing is knowing your market, and cause its become super cool to be 16 and pregnant, or a drug addict i guess the grammys nailed it by giving all those awards to the biggest crackie they could find.

I am sure if bjork was a public drunk/addict, everyone would be raving about her new album too, but b/c she isnt it just leaves people who dont fit the mass mold and have original oppinions to defend her music.

oh... and HI, i'm Lindsay, not quite as opinionated as billy, but everyday he brings me closer.
