Should I....

[Victis]

Leave Canada and move to the US?

Hows the job market in socal? =)

[Llah]

iono. just be sure to get a visa if you do so no problems. ^^

[Digita1]

What's the reasoning behind all this?

[Victis]

Immigration here in Canada has been giving Siri a hard time from the get-go.. getting tired of it.. and the weather.. altho a ginger in the cali sun might prove to kill me in the end.. the lawyer I just hired isn't proving to be much good..

No Dell campus in Cali tho.

And by hard time.. I mean, the gov't works so slow that Siri wouldn't be able to work here for quite awhile, I've already put in over 1000 worth of application fees to the gov't, not including the cost of a lawyer.. Last time we tried this we were apart for a year before she returned due to immigration blocking things from working.. no reason given, inconsistent information.. the situation is more ridiculous now than ever..

Canada to US seems alot easier than US to Canada

Move to the US, but not to Cali then :p

[Digita1]

Siri is having immagration problems? Is she a US Citizen moving to Canada or something?

[Zelaton]

Siri is from California, Vic is from Ottawa Canada! :p

There are other nice places to live besides Cali, not to mention Cali is expensive living. Texas , and some other southern states are pretty nice, northern isn't too bad either (but you wanna get away from that weather). I would like to move to Florida sometime in the future.

[Victis]

Ya we were working a sponsorship application for permanent residence, have our marriage license etc. None of it matters to them right now...

The reason I say Cali is because her family is there, would have to work from the ground up all over again.. but thats not hard I've got enough education/work experience.. where else would I go in the US besides Cali.. only other option would be to transfer to a different Dell campus.. so thats either roundrock, or nashville

[playerapX]

so cal is great. Nice Weather, expensive ehhh... just houses and shit other than that it isn't that bad. And rate of pay is more here also so it all balances out.

The weather isn't a deciding factor.. Drea's family invited me down to Cali over a year ago but I declined since I had already established myself here (apt/solid job/car etc) and I'd be temporarily supported by people in her family.. so we decided to stay here. But we've done almost everything we can and we're getting shafted, I just missed my next job promotion because I've had to take off so much time at work to deal with it.

[Victis]

I dunno maybe I won't be so white in the near future.. and I'll end up meetin a few l2ers I was supposed to feck with when I was in the valley during last august

[playerapX]

Alot of jobs also. When i first moved here it took me about a month to find a job. After that job it took me about 1 1/2 weeks to find another. Alot of restraunt jobs / retail.

[Victis]

Working at Dell may be a joke to some but its great to have on a resume..

Definitely move to the US. We are the Catalyzt of countries... everyone hates us and we got the overpowered hero zerg.

[Victis]

Cali definitely has some perks.. weather.. and thus better cars, plus the car scene down there makes almost every make and model available..

[playerapX]

Lots of Honda's

Aren't you required to sign a draft agreement in case they ever invoke it? :/

That's a difficult decision.

Fuck Canada's immigration policy sometimes.

[Grindrolas]

So hold on, someone who is going to MARRY a citizen is getting fucked around, but people who have no ties whatsoever have no problem getting in? Thats fucking retarded.

[Victis]

Apparently they don't give a shit if you're married or not.. it makes no difference to them.. but in 2005 they made it so could apply for permanent residence under spousal class regardless of your status in canada (that would be a legal, or illegal status)..

But tuesday the immigration officers showed up at my door.. and prank called me on my cell phone and home phone before hand.. Drea's not even here right now, shes with them, being detained, and they won't tell us why. lol.

True to a point....But in Cali right now you need to be making 6 figures to buy a house on one income........ Right now it's so ridiculous. 400k for a shithole that's 1200 sqft. It's slowly coming down though. And once we have a big earthquake the market will take a crap and houses will be 150-200k again...........o_@

Other than the realestate market atm Cali rocks.........:)

wru again devito

[Jadein]

Hey Vic I don't know you or Siri that well but that really sucks ass that they are detaining her and you guys are having such an issue.

Moving to the US might not be such a bad option if that shit up there doesn't stop. If you decided to go closer to her family I'm sure she'd love that. If not anywhere in the US would probably be better than putting up with the bullshit you've been putting up with there. As was said before, make sure you get a work visa ...

I live in Wisconsin .... job market isn't too bad here and the cost of living is pretty low. Real estate here runs around 250k for 2300-2500 sq. ft. The apartment I live in right now is in a decent neighborhood .... 3 bedrooms, includes heat and is bigger than most smaller single family homes for $750. The town I live in is right smack dap between Milwaukee and Chicago .... 30 min. north to Milwaukee and an hour south to Chicago. The weather here is probably not that different though.

[Victis]

Thanks for the support, she's doing alright for the time being... the conditions are worse than I'll explain but.. we've basically done everything we could have and they still don't seem to give a shit. I should know more tomorrow... nothing is making sense and whats happening at the moment, shouldn't be, my lawyer has yet to sink into the case though.

We made our original decision to stay in Canada because I have my apt/car/job here and I'm on my feet, while Siri is still at home base w/ her family. But its as if the system is geared to let in people from war torn countries.. we give refugees STARTER CASH for 1 year and the eligibility to work instantly.. whilst Siri has had the opportunity to.. visit. A US citizen.. our neighbor, the ones we're supposed to be very close to.. and neither of us have any type of record.

I've prepared to have the car traded back in for a small loss, insurance is on hold, job has been notified, boxes are ready, I'm ready to pack up and leave, this is getting absurd..

[Talorth]

Well Vic if you can send Siri our love and support. I'm not trying to be all emo, but I know if it was me in that situation I'd be really angery, pissed off and probably scared. If there is anything you need help with ... info about certain area's or whatever I'm sure most here would be willing to help. I'm thinking about you guys.

My state sucks right now as far as jobs go (Michigan). Just don't ever think of moving here :(

On that note, I have decided if I ever lose my job, I will be moving to Arizona. There are tons (and I mean tons) of jobs there right now. Warm weather and not far from Cali. :grin: I have so many friends that have moved there and had no problem at all getting jobs and the cost of living isn't high there. If I wasn't a single mom I would move there now just to get away from the fricken winter weather =P

Ya know, Gaf and I were talking about Arizona not too long ago. I've always wanted to move somewhere warm, Florida has always been in mind since my family goes there every year for Spring Break so I know my way around there. But, Arizona is where my aunt lives and I have visted. It's a nice place very beautiful, living doesn't seem too expensive, lots of jobs b/c areas of AZ are growing, nice weather (if you like HOT).

lol yes, move close to me!!! On a further note, Arizona has a huge job market. Just as long as you can bare the 120 degree summers. Cost of living isn't terrible, thou the housing market is a bit high at the moment so buying a house most people go to the outskirts and manage the hour - hour and a half drive to work. Apartments are cheap, most 2 bedrooms range from 650-900 a month, in some of the really heavily populated nicer areas 1000-1200 a month.

Hahaha, there was a knock at the door today and I was half-naked so I didn't answer. After like a minute, I hear and see someone trying to slide something in between the crack of the door and the door frame.. I run up, grab it and it says "Is HELLFIRE really for you...?". I crumpled it up, opened the door, and threw it at them, closed the door. They came back up and slide another one in, so I grabbed my lighter off the table next to the door, opened it and lit it on fire and tossed it at them. The guy goes "Fuckin' fag, burn in hell".

I showed my large, unending ass and they walked away quite pissed off.

God I love fuckin' with the Song bird jesus people.

In your opinion (or in reality if there is actually an answer to this question), why does God let good people suffer? (And by that I don't mean like, whenever something slightly bad happens to someone, I mean like starvation/malnutrition/disease in african nations and the like).


BTW, is bible hugger an offensive term? Iunno don't meet a lot of religious people down here, it's legal to shoot someone if they are carrying a bible.

if god reduced or removed all of man's suffering he would be revealed, taking away our freedom to choose whether or not to believe him. if he only selectively chose to help people then that would mean he is not benevolent

Bible hugger, thumper, Jesus freak and any otherwise associated term do not offend me in any which way shape or form. I am not your average Christian Luke. Do I love Jesus and believe in the Christianity ..(True, real like book of Acts Christianity) ... Yes. If you'd like more info on that type of Christianity ... feel free to ask ... I don't devulge information unless asked first because another point ... my beliefs are EXACTLY that ... Mine and mine alone ... I share my experience if people want to know, otherwise I keep my mouth shut. My job isn't to make people hate Jesus ... although I think many many Christians seem to forget that.

Funny, one of my very very best friends just asked me this same question because He's had some REALLLLYYYY Fucked up shit happen in his life and wanted to know why God would allow people to suffer. I'm putting this disclaimer out here right now ... these are my beliefs and mine alone ... I am NOT trying to push anyone into believing the same as me, but if You have more questions after this I'll be open to answer whatever I can.

First: I do not believe God causes bad things. The bible says (yes I do believe in the bible) that the Devil comes to steal kill and destroy ... so anything having to do with those three categories, God did not do because the bible also says that Jesus came to give life and life more abundantly. Satan is a lying bastard and wishes for nothing but to destroy this earth and every living thing on it. That's my belief as far as that goes.

Second: I believe that God does have a plan for the church and there is a reason for the church. I believe the church (i'm not talking denominations here, I'm talking people who have faith) has a purpose here on earth and that the plan hasn't been outworked yet. I do believe in the book of ressurection which talks about Jesus' return to earth and a 1000 years of peace (think Utopia). But before that happends there is much much suffering because the church isn't perfect or unified ... pick a denomination anyone? Do I think I'll see Jesus here on earth in my lifetime? Nope probably not.

Third: I believe as Grog said if there was no suffering then we would actually KNOW God and there would be NO choice but to love him and accept him and believe in him ... that takes away free will and that's not God's plan in any way shape or form. God wants us to have a relationship with him because we WANT to ... not because He forced us into it.

Fourth: I believe God helps people who at least TRY to help themselves. If you are sitting on your ass in your same situation not trying to do a dayum thing to change it ... guess what it's not going to change.

If you really want to get an idea of suffering read the book of Job in the bible. And before you say anything ... reading the bible does NOT make you a bible hugger or anything like that ... BELIEVING the bible makes you a bible hugger. Just reading it is a good way to gain knowledge and maybe have a different perspective on things. The book of Job really looks into the mystery of human suffering and contrasts the invisible workings of the spirit realm against the reasonings of everday men and women. It teaches about patience, but much more than that it proves that Satan is the AUTHOR of all misery.

I really think that Faith is a gift ... it has helped me through some very terrible times in my life (i've almost died on not one, but two occasions) and my faith has brought things into a more clear light where I might not of understood without it.

Sorry this is so long, but it really isn't a one word or one sentence answer type of question.

[Victis]

I prefer to replace the word "Belief" with "Idea"... =)

[Damarus]

Indeed, well thanks for the input :) It's interesting to know how stuff like that is seen by people who believe in God. I don't think I'm going to go out and try to locate a bible now though, but all this talk of the book of Job has made me want to rent out Mission Impossible >.>

*smiles* it's called Faith guys ... *shrugs* To be honest, I could frankly careless if someone believes in the marshmellow man ... but to sit there and be ignorant enough to think there is NOTHING bigger than you out there ... well I guess I'm just happy I don't believe the world revolves around me.

I mean really ... humans are the highest level of intelligence there is in the whole UNIVERSE? Please tell me that's not so because if it is ... I'm suddenly very scared.

Like I said ... I could careless if people believe in sponge bob square pants ... *smiles* although I'll still hold to the fact that I'm not changing my beliefs.

And Vic ... Belief and Idea are two very different things.

I really don't want to get into why I believe what I do so please don't push me into it. Just take it for what it is ... I'm a 27 year old woman, who's a freak, has multiple tattoos and a few piercings, and tends to love Jesus. I'm not asking you too do or be anything other than you are *smiles*

who says we're the highest level of intelligence in the universe?...that doesn't mean it has to be god. mathamatically there are billions of other civilizations out there...but we are so far away, that there is no way to prove it. i will believe i what i do, and you can believe what you do, because both are much in the same i suppose...one however, cannot be explained with science, and i will leave it at that.

and please do not cite it as ignorance. talking about stories that people wrote hundreds of years ago and using them to guide your modern life while speaking to an invisible man that only helps you if you help yourself...come now, this seems a bit delusional to me.

but at the end of the day, if having these beliefs helps you to understand the world and your place in it, then more power to you...however, calling people ignorant because they dont share these same notions is ignorant in itself.

All together now children:

g'day mate, put tha shrimp on tha barbie

hey shiela, fetch me a tinnie will ya

[Jadein]

i wasn't calling you ignorant Gaf ... I was calling people who believe there is NOTHING else out there ignorant. "but to sit there and be ignorant enough to think there is NOTHING bigger than you out there ... well I guess I'm just happy I don't believe the world revolves around me." THAT's what I said.

Actually you and I are pretty much saying the SAME exact thing just using different words and coming from a different form of belief. I will still hold to the opinion that People who believe that they are it and there is nothing else out there are ignorant because hello ... this universe is fucking big ... thats a pretty narccasstic thought.

And just to clarify ... I don't believe God only helps those who help themselves ... I just believe it makes it a little bit easier on yourself and God.

I also find it hard to talk about my faith with people who have no knowledge of the bible or what it says ... because yes the stories were written thousands of years ago ... but the princepals behind the writting are very easy to put into modern day language. I love to talk about my faith with people who don't believe as I do but still have a pretty big knowledge of the bible and what it says ... it makes for a much better discussion.

I'm not sure of Canada to US though, maybe it's different.

Unlimited green cards for the class I'm applying in

Yea, the question is how long it'll take for you to get it.

We re-newed ours, and it took them two years to come to us. It was fucking ridiculous how many people don't know that you can extend an "old" green card a couple of years, while you're getting your shit removed, so I ran into a lot of issues with it.

Nonetheless, once you have a green card it's like being a citizen, only a little bit different.

3-4 months waiting time.

3-4 months waiting time.

Nice. Anyone from Europe gets to wait like 2-3 years ;o

[Damarus]

I get to come in whenever the fuck I want, because I will throw koalas at anyone who tries to stop me. At least, that's the plan...

[Jadein]

Awww don't throw the koalas ... just bring me one ... I LOVE them and want one for a pet.

[Damarus]

I need to throw them though, so they latch onto people's faces and claw them to death...

[Victis]

I'm lookin forward to the nice weather ;)

this plan needs more kangaroos :>

[Damarus]

Sure Kangaroos can kick, and kick hard, but I can't throw kangaroos :/

Maybe I'll throw in some Tasmanian Devils come to think of it...

[Grindrolas]

my brothers been living in aussie land for the last year and has told me countless times how fucking retarded roo's are when it comes to cars :(

[Damarus]

Yeah, a roo will be like on the side of the road, see a car coming and go "OH FUCK ITS A CAR" and at the last second run infront of it in order to escape.........

pretty fucking sad that it came to this....you need to make your way down here before you leave Vic.

[Digita1]

Sucks that Canada is a big bitch.

Welcome to the USA, bud. Hope you like it here better than there.

[Victis]

Well.. the argument at the moment is this...

Siri arrived here on December 10th 2006, and explained what our plans were, to get married, sponsor her as a permanent resident under the spousal class etc. Now the average time it takes to prepare (with a lawyer) these applications (we're talking over 50 pages of forms to fill out as well as supporting documents) take 2-3 months to PREPARE.. and they gave us 1 month, 3 weeks of it being during holidays where no Gov't department has staff that work during Holidays.. And visitors are supposed to be permitted for 6 months..

[Archaos]

Asshats.

[Zelaton]

Update: Siri is still being detained but we have a review hearing tomorrow morning. Should have a final decision. She is heading back home at the beginning of march, just booked her flight. I'll be following soon after at the end of April to San Jose.

So, shes been in "jail" for over a week now? :/ I don't get why they don't just let her go home.

[Archaos]

That is relatively lame. They don't even give you the amount of time needed to get your shit done.

Oh Canada, what has become of you !

[Victis]

Don't know what to say.. such a bad situation.. and every professional I've talked to that works in the field has never heard of this happening.

[Digita1]

Well I hope she's okay, Vic. That's some really screwed up stuff. Hope your move to Cali goes good.

[Victis]

Update: Siri is back home now. Flight leaves March 6th.. everything seems to be okay, other than immigration trying to send her to the us/canadian border...tomorrow.. still trying to fight it.

Its time for some sex

[Damarus]

K I'll meet you in bed in a minute Vic.

Hahaha, really glad to hear you're okay, Siri. Did you get touched by any butch lesbos?

[Grog]

why do you think she had to make a shank?

[Siri]

Hahaha, really glad to hear you're okay, Siri. Did you get touched by any butch lesbos?

Thanks for the support from you guys really does mean a lot to me.
<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3


I actually only saw one butch lesbo, but she didnt stay in the cell/room I did. I was basically in a room with 15 other girls much older than me who had kids on the outside and most of them were pretty much crackheads=/ I slept on metal bunkbeds pretty much. Its so gross in there omg. I never knew girls could be so disgusting aswell. From the first few days I was there the girls were scared of me. Im guessing cuz I was the only hispanic looking chick there. There was one black girl and the rest were white crack heads lmao it was pretty bad and somewhat depressing to see what has happened to some of the Canadian youth. So I'm stealing this Canadian guy and taking him back to California!!!

*plays the song California by Phantom Planet

[Grog]

sounds like a shitty experience :(
good luck to ya both
