    Thanks. Direct from the UAE ako para less hassle and gastusin. Mababawasan pa ang funds kapag umuwi kami sa Pinas, especially holiday season pa.

    good luck sir! kami din lapit na lumipad...kinakabahan na ko na excited. hehe
    Favorite lines ko from a play song "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. Don't plan a plan if you can't follow through." We have to do this sir kahit kabado. Pinlano at pinaghirapan natin ito kaya kailangang panagutan. LOL!

    Happy New Year to all. By the way I'm new to this forum and I had so much fun reading discussions about visa application. Anyway I just had my student visa granted last December 2012, and I will be attending the Autumn semester of UTS, with the course of Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I will be flying to Australia on the 18th of January so I have roughly more than 2 weeks. Anyone in here also studying in UTS, particularly in Kuring-gai campus? Would be nice to know someone who could share their experiences in UTS. :) Thanks so much guys!
