I'll give it a try next year (when I'm debt free enough to move).

Congrats! Welcome to the club - legal since 2008. It was long and painful "adventure" with immigration services for me.

Awsome! Today must have been a good day to join things! You joined america, and i joined the coast guard today! what would you like to do in the navy?

I hear ya .. same here!

I'm not sure what exactly what I want to do in the Navy .. maybe something mechanical. We'll see.

Congrats! Magic, BuellRider, Sirius I admire your dedication I've heard its anything but easy.

Gotta say that the term "Naturalized" is a little unnerving in my opinion. Sounds like a friendly way of saying dehumanized. They should change it to something nice, I bet more people would pursue citizenship.

That being said: Kudos! Even more so!

 

[Jobe Zeebuh]

Cheers to that [up]

We are truly a nation of nations. Glad to see your not letting any grass grow under your feet.

The worst thing is that on all paperwork you get from immigration services you are called "alien"... That's also kinda funny after a while.
