countdown to dv 2018 results

I am exceptionally calm this year, and always optimistic! I am grateful just to be able to enter, and as with all lotteries, it is completely out of my control now. If I am selected this fifth year of applying, life will change from how it is now. If I am not, life will still change, because that's how things are, nothing stands still :) I realised that while I have been waiting these years, I have filled my time doing other things that have put me in a better place every year. I did a full degree while I waited, no selection. That's ok, because now I am doing a Master's while I wait. Selection this year? Let's see on Wednesday. All this waiting has made me even more ready to either start a new life in the US or continue a greater one here :) I believe in positive affirmation and the law of attraction :)

Just my thoughts for today!

Thinking happy thoughts for everyone who has entered.

The good news is, since you are in Australia, you have about 8% chances to get selected which is very high! I get about 1.5% being in Europe and being playing for the 6th time.

I am fascinated about the statistics, what are the chances of being selected if you are from Africa.@puda

I would say in general for the rest of the regions is about 1% chance of winning. Chances are low in general and you can only hope to have luck on your side and don´t make any errors in your application :)

I agree on that and its the best to always keep in mind our plans at home, since winning the lottery is not easy at all and obtaining success in our home countries can also bring a level of happiness to our lives :)

This year they had a 2nd draw but it depends and there is no guarantee that a second draw will be made for DV2018. My best advise to you is to keep up as well with your plans at home and enjoy your daily activities with your family and friends, since the chance of winning is very low and this is my third time trying now :)
