Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)
The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.

Hi all, just received an email from my IDP counsellor:
"But again, for visa refusals that are GTE-related, I would advise you to not reapply again because the probability of getting refused on your reapplication is high."
Sorry sa positive message ni @laquips. Baka may marefer kayong agent or immi lawyer, please pa-pm po. Thanks!
