Tintin's Texas Trip - February 2009
Tintin's trip to SAN ANTONIO, Texas 2009
day 1: river walk and famous alamo...
day 2: natural bridge caverns, shooting range and RODEO!
trying to go places in just 3 days and 2 nights isn't enough to
cover everything... taking pictures as much as you can... making memories
that will last for a lifetime and share with love ones back home... wishing
that they are all here to see and have fun as much as you are... but just pictures,
videos, and stories to tell...
catching up with a long time friend... isn't that great?!
beware of Tintin at the Shooting Range though... she gets clumsy with that
gun... oh my oh my... made our nerves racked! hey Tin... you better practice
with full body armour to be safe next time.. "wink" "wink"

The Wild Life Ranch in New Braunfels Texas - July 10, 2008
The Safari In San Antonio Texas...
its not the African Safari, but its worth the trip!
its a huge place where in all you have to do is stay in your car,
drive around the entire place,
holding the animal pellets in your hands,
and feed the animals as you see them,
you are lucky if they get near you...
i must say the animals there are very friendly...
was a little scared at first whether im going to feed them with my hands
or not, but it was fun... they dont bite...
the entrance fee was like $16 for each adult... and a dollar each bag
of animal food (the pellets...)

my interview experience at the USEM
my interview experience at the US Embassy Manila
dated April 24, 2008 - 7am Philippines
my appointment was 7am... i arrived around 6am...
i saw a long line infront of USEM but dont go where the crowd's at... ask the guard infront coz the K3 K1 lines are way shorter than the others... show ur appointment letter when u get there and a Valid ID... then they will tell you where to fall in line under the tent.. then one by one you'll get to the entrance where u need to have ur things xrayed... and after that you just follow the arrow going to the immigrant visa unit.. the guards will show you where to sit.. then per row they will tell you when to get your number ( when u get ur number, prepare your forms with you make sure signed and all the photos are attached, and all the details are answered, plus the appointment letter)... then just wait for the number to flash on the screens.. there are a lot of screens there so u wont missed it! at first my number flashed for window 22 and it was pre screening... others got to get finger scanned first before pre screened.. the numbers dont flash consecutively so make sure u pay attention to the screens... after the pre screening, the guy (he's gay and very very accomodating, friendly and had a little chit chat with me... so it was like talking to a friend telling him how did my love story started and a few other details, the packet my hubby sent was sooo thick that he didnt asked for more proofs except for the Affidavit of support and the documents needed for that - such as w2 1040 tax transcripts pay stubs and certificate of employment from petitioner..), i asked him to take some of the photos i have prepared, so he considered taking them.... after that he told me to wait for my name to be called probably for finger scanning at window 16... so it was called... after that... went back to sit with the new friends ive met there... and the long wait began!! the wait for the consul is soooooooooooo freaking looooooooooong!! more than 3 hours of waiting... i got there 6am, i finished almost 12noon... but the interview is sooooooo short... it was an american gurl around mid to late 20's, was nice.... and smiles whenever i answer a question she asks...
questions are the following:
1. made me swear first that everything written in the docs are true...
2. who is my petitioner...
3. how did we met...
4. when did we first met...
5. how many times did he visit...
6. what does he do..
7. mode of communication...
8. what do we talk about everyday...
9. do we ever have fights...
10. how do we resolve our fights...
11. what are our similarities..
12. how long have he been working with the company...
13. is it my first marriage...
14. is it his first marriage.. and reason for divorce..
15. any kids???
16. what did i do in qatar... how long did i work there...
17. is it scary in Qatar????
thats it... and she told me that i am approved.. and just wait for the visa to be delivered... i asked her when can the visa be delivered since my hubby is excited to buy the tickets... and she said she cant really tell.. she said just wait for the visa before buying tickets... then after that step... waited outside for my name to be called from window 37.. the releasing of documents... its the same gay guy who pre screened me so i was comfy talking to him and had our chit chats again... asked him the same question bout the visa... he said it depends on the finger printing... sometimes around 2 weeks time, sometimes less than a week... so he said the same thing,... to wait for the visa to be delivered....after that he told me to go to delbros and pay for the delivery... thats it!!!!
make sure you bring FOOD snacks u can munch inside coz the waiting is tooooooo loooooooooooooong!!! and for sure u will get hungry... so have something to munch on...the process is very easy... dont worry you will do fine... God Bless and congrats!!!!! hardly they deny visa's unless you really dont have supporting docs and even if you dont have enough

healing process: HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR TAT!
right after the tat... we're expecting them to bandage it... but... they just put tons of petroleum jelly on it and said its better that it's left uncovered since the wound is still fresh and the bandage will only stick to the wound, which will make it painful to remove later on...but since we got a dinner date later on that night with my gay friends.... what we did was....
1. we bought sterile gauze and bandaged it ourselves...
2. we avoided too much movement (sucks!!!!) stiffy adam and grace!
too much movement will stretch the tat and may change the looks of the tat when it's healed
3. we lubed it!!! no matter what, just lube it!!! petroleum jelly works wonders!
before and after shower! just lube it!!!
4. avoid getting it wet for the first few weeks... as much as possible!
greasy tattoo area it was! so careful when taking shower.. very funny :))
5. avoid laying on the tat area when sleeping...
me and my baby miss sleeping on our back so much, the funny thing about that is no matter how hard we try to avoid laying on our backs, sometimes we just catch ourselves awake in the middle of the night laying on our backs! (we're both guilty of charge !!) hehe
6. bandage it when going out so as not to scratch the ink from the tat!
our next tat plans... him my name and me a cute little sexy fairy...
we're looking forward to that!!!!!
a short warning!!!
it can get sooooooo addictive!!!
choose the best place you want your tat coz removal is a pain in the butt and in the wallet!!!
no pain no gain!!! its an art!! and i love both of our tattoos!!
