    wow! @Liolaeus, lapit na ang grant nyan.
    Sana nga. Ganun ba pag may health undertaking form na? Sure na kaya yung grant? Actually ok lang kahit medyo matagalan sila, ang imporante eh positive yung result application.

    @Liolaeus oo sis, kasi complete na yung docs mo. Medo hintay hintay lang.. ako more than 2 mos ang waiting ko since nacomplete ang CO request. GSM Brisbane naman ako tapos sabi ni agent kaya natagalan kasi GSM Adelaide daw ang naghahandle ng mga SI 189 and 190. Tpos yung mga ibang visa under GSM Brisbane na. Pag nagrant ka na, nakakawindang ang mga dapat gawin.. nakakaexcite pero challenging.

    Hi! I heard about IOM nung nag-attend ako ng PDOS. Although from what I've heard from other attendees, di rin daw ganun kalaki ang difference sa price ng airfare. Ang mai-ooffer lang nila ay 40 kg allowance for migrants. Eto yung website nila, if you still wanna see: https://www.iom.int/countries/philippines/features

    Alternatively, I think mas okay mag-abang ng seat sale sa CebuPac! :)

    Hello po. Just sharing. I have inquired from IOM for the concession fare but if you are coming from the Philippines, then it is better and cheaper to book cebu pac especially during promos. But for those coming from outside, you may want to check with them since they are using international airlines.

    I got a one way ticket from cebu pac for PhP 13K. But from IOM, min is $362 + taxes. Only 40kg is included on their quote.

    Hello po. Just sharing. I have inquired from IOM for the concession fare but if you are coming from the Philippines, then it is better and cheaper to book cebu pac especially during promos. But for those coming from outside, you may want to check with them since they are using international airlines.

    I got a one way ticket from cebu pac for PhP 13K. But from IOM, min is $362 + taxes. Only 40kg is included on their quote.
    IOM has a partnership with Qantas if I am not mistaken. Full-service carrier sya kaya medyo pricey pero kasama yung meals plus advantage na din yung 40kg na baggage allowance. :)

    @se29m

    hanep ZIZO mode haha geh lang paps maraming salamats inaabangan mo ako eh nagapply ka din!

    anyway previously: on the working dead

    ganyan lagi senaryo ko.

    @nutellagirl

    nakoteh! umay much na ako! nagpopost ako dito para maaliw ko sarili at makabasa nang mga experiences nang iba somehow nauuplift spirit ko pag nakakakita ako nang mga updates saka wento wento.

    pero overall i guess tanggap ko na matatagalan yung sa akin. I think ganito yung perception ko sa bagay na to.

    mamimiss ko SG definitely! especially yung pinaka matagal na tinirahan namen at yung mga playgrounds where i used to do my fitness.

    pero mas nakafocus ang isip ko sa makasama family ko at malaro laro ko yung junior ko.

    same lang din sa pinas yun pero sad to say namimis ko man ang Pinas i don't look forward sa time na need ko talaga bumalik PH.

    @kittykitkat18

    di naman ako praning! may sayad lang ako nang konti.

    subliminal message pala yung tote bag! ako araw araw yung ref namen may nakadikit na australia subliminal din message saken

    buntong hininga lagi sagot ko punyemas!

    I haven't lost everything except my mind...
