    OMG! I am here now in Rochester,UK

    What a long journey coming here to England...I am in jet-lag right now, but i have to share my experiences when i arrived the Heathrow Airport Terminal 5.What a long queue in UK Border yesterday afternoon(April 11,2013) I can't believe it..Wow!!

    Anyway,when its my turn i handed to the immigration officer my Passport with the landing card.She checked it,she asked me some questions,what reason are you here?I told her to get married to my fiancé,she asked me what's the name of my fiancé and i answered her question,she asked me again,when you get married,and after marriage do you have to go back to the Philippines? and i said No.So, she gave me a piece of paper she told me, i will send you to the health clinic for chest x-ray.I said to her, i have a result for chest x-ray but it wasn't sufficient because it's not an approved clinic by UKBA,I asked her do i have to pay for the x-ray,she smile at me and she said No. I'm glad it's free.I am so happy the chest x-ray result "Normal" and quick.Then i went to other immigration officer i handed again my passport and the chest result then he stamped my visa..

    Wow! Must be great feeling to be with your loved one...I long for the day when I can kiss him goodnight & wake up next to my Sweetheart again. Might be another year or who knows... The last 3 months of being apart was difficult after having 3 months of good times and living together. Thank you for sharing...it made me smile.
