“Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.”

nabasa ko na to dati eh, pero clarifiy ko nrn sa inyo at least to make it sure:
since first time migrant ako pwede ako maka-avail nung 40 kilos sa mismong airline carrier or sa IOM.. pero paano naman ung kasama ko na papunta din ng Melbourne na galing na sa AU, pero never pa sya nagpabook dati as first time migrant, do you think eligible pa sya na kunin ngayon ung 40 kilos din? (student visa sya dati, now PR visa na)
