Jemina @Jemina (5770) 1 Mar 11

I thought I would have more time socializing when I started my WAH full time. But as it appears it's engulfing all my time. I do hope that all my efforts and hard work will come to fruition because I am shutting myself out of my...

Jemina @Jemina (5770) 14 May 09

I have never really appreciated my passport until now after the Home Office had it for about 9 months. I felt miserable not being able to do stuff that required it--employment and travelling. Now I felt like I won the lotto! LOL!

If I don't give a best response mark, would you still respond to my posts?

Jemina @Jemina (5770) 16 Jul 08
