Finally, its over....
Thanks for all of you.
It is a long journey...from June 2001, I was always three months away(applied for CP)....
I am unable to consolidate my feelings...It's more of a relief...
Yesterday night after long time, I could not control myself after seeing the posting of 'freaked' . I wrote there "to me the journey always ended up in a mirage..." and to my total suprise, I got the good news today morning...
Initially, in 2000, 2001 & early 2002, I use to congratulate every body...by end of 2002 and in early 2003, I use to write 'desperate waiting' mails...by 2003, I reached a certain state of 'Nirvana' with occasional deep frustrations...
Sometimes, if I see people who applied in 2004 writing 'desparate mails', I use to laugh remembering my frustrations in 2001 & 2002...I used to think at least they are lucky to have concurrent filing...of course, we all deserve to be treated in a better way by INS....
Let me take this opportunity to thank Rajiv Khanna. I feel that without his law suit, it would have taken longer for most of us... I met great people in this forum, some of them turned into personal relations...I would like to thank 'core' group members(dsatish, edison, rk4gc,rajesh,kashmir & others).
My special thanks to Jharkhandi ...I liked the aggressiveness of Sumantha. I could see the reflections of my pain in "khan_bacha" & other old timers and yesterday in 'freaked'...
I don't know how many of you remembered a user named 'Aishwairya Rai' in I-140 forums in late 2000-early 2001. It used to be fun waiting for I-140 and watching the way people use to show desparateness. People out of frustration started discussing whether Aishwariya Rai is a male or female.Some people proposed Aishwarya Rai.. SriFX in CP forums used to be very informative...
it's difficult to take out every page of my memories in this forum..
In the end, I would like to thank all of you for sharing hopes, ambitions and frustations....
