Naku, mukhang mayroong hindi nakatulog dito! Hehehe. Akala ko naman kinontact ka ng CO mo for the grant na! Dibale, last step na yang medicals woohoo!
@thegreatiam15
Haha, ano bang bagong kwento saakin... Hmmm... Ayun, naglipat na ako ng money ko from BPI Maxi Savers to NAB iSavers account. Straightforward lang naman pala siya na wire transfer. P35.00 yung palitan nun PHP to AUD. Hindi na ko naghanap ng mas malaking palitan pa kasi mas convenient at mas safe para sakin yung direct transfer from my bank.

Naku, hirap talaga maka-function sa work pag iniisip tong visa!
Madali lang mag-wire transfer through bank, meron lang iaaccomplish na form. Yun nga lang, kailangan niyong tanungin yung bank niyo kung meron silang ganung function (na siguro naman meron). BPI pala yung akin.
@filipinacpa
Hehehe, naka-abang talaga tayong lahat sa grant nila!
