It's better to worry about SSN when you are already married then you don't have to go back to the SSN Office to change your name. Just relax and know that your man will be with you now, will help you what to do and always read information here as well as USCIS sites to make it more clear to you.	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-07-09 20:42:00

Don't worry about it. your husband probably know everything on how to work your papers here. you will be super busy on your first month here in US. Wrong! Not all husband's knows what to do next or what paper works that you're gonna prepare again, one of them was mine, when I told him what I have read here in VJ he ask some more proof of sites or where did the members get the infos so i research more and sent him the USCIS site where it talks about AOS ang stuff like that. \ Enjoy first but don't forget to do what you have to do that won't jeopardize your stay here in the US.

Philippines	Question for Filipina's in USA, regarding the food...	QUOTE (rockhouse @ Jul 11 2009, 11:52 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi all, I was curious about how the Filipina's that are now living in the USA feel about the food here. There are lot's of different types of food, from fast-food to Italian and Mexican. How do you ladies find the food compared to back home? My Fiancee thinks maybe her palate won't be adjusted to the food here, and she won't really care for it. I keep telling her that there's no way she won't like a chicken or beef fajita plate, or a good 'ol texas cheeseburger, or maybe a slab of good lasagna. Fast-food is pretty much the same everywhere, but how do yall like the real restaurant foods? Lemme know ladies.....thanks. She can always cook if she don't like the food here because Asian stores is everywhere but when she starts working or get busy she will have no choice but to eat out or order at the resto. At first I thought i won't get used to the food here in the US but my husband introduce me slowly with the Restaurants here like mexicans which I loveesp. their texas fajitas, then OLIVE GARDEN, Italian Resto, etc. Since I love Spicy Food we also go to Thai restaurant here. But with the fast food, I'm not really a fun of it unless its SUBWAY. So don't worry she will like the food here pretty soon once she's used to it.	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-07-11 01:33:00
Philippines	question: can somebody give me tip for driving	QUOTE (LOSTGURL--SOPHIA @ Jun 29 2009, 10:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> quick question friends.. if u fail the test how many test can u retake it or Attempts? and how much every fee for retake?>> If you fail at the Learners' Permit Test/Exam, you won't pay anything, Only until you pass that you have to pay less than 10 or 15 dollars, I am not sure, I forgot how much. You can re-take it even everyday until you pass the exam, don't stress out, it's very easy as long as you have read the Driver's Manual.

Philippines	question: can somebody give me tip for driving	QUOTE (LOSTGURL--SOPHIA @ Jun 28 2009, 11:25 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> EVERYBODY... thank you so much for the tips.. I appreciate it.. Im reading the book right now.. and i wonder if the paper test itself is hard or i mean online before the actual test itself... rough estimate how long did u learn how to drive -- i know it varies > however can somebody pls give me estimate..thank u again It depends what state are you, here in SC, after I passed the learners' permit exam, I have 180 day requirement (six months) before I could take the road test, but unfortunately, I took the road test for 3 times, hehehe, before I pass, we also have to know how to parallel park.	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-06-28 00:38:00
Philippines	question: can somebody give me tip for driving	First, you have to learn the Rules of the Road, read many times the Driver's manual. Practice as much as you can (of course with your husband) or instructor if you have one. You must be aware of your speed limit, uses of your left or right-hand signal, stopping smoothly, etc. All the techniques and tips that you are looking for are all in the book even the ROAD TEST. Goodluck	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-06-27 21:44:00

Philippines	straight talk about sex	QUOTE (venus644 @ Jul 27 2009, 08:19 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> QUOTE (Brijo @ Jul 26 2009, 02:39 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I hope this isnt too forward a subject, but frankly I dont know where else to talk about this at. Me and my wife got married in January 2008. The day of our marriage, she was going to go "home" which was 45 minutes away, so she could teach at her school the next day. The only reason she didnt do that is because it affected me so much, on our wedding day, that I cried. We are together now. To this day I have not seen her naked. When we make love, the lights all have to be out. She wont let me touch her sexually unless we make love, and then only on her breasts. It really affects me....... We go round and round about this. Is it cultural? Am I an idiot to be so affected? It is affecting our relationship. Am very serious with this topic. Thanks Where did you meet your fiancee? Some women from provinces or small town are conservative type. Knowing teacher in rural areas , they are very conservative. They are timid and shy it is not easy for them to be naked , especially when it is their first time to explore sex in bed. She is uncomfortable... just be patience.... educate her until shyness over come. But it doesn't mean that a girl came from a remote area, she's shy in sex after few times of their encounter with the husband. I guess that's weird! The first time or second time you'll be in bed with your bf or husband I guess it's understandable to be uncomfortable but few times, I guess you can bare it all and be naughty . Anyways, to the Op the thing is ask her and talk to her is the only way you will know why she is like that to you.	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-07-26 21:08:00

NO, you're not an idiot, INTIMATE is normal and very IMPORTANT in marriage. it is one of the thing to express your love to her and to be more close emotionally. without it you are living with your sister or relative. Yes I agree with lotus. It's really a very serious thing and being intimate to a partner is important to a relationship especially to a husband and wife, I don't want to to be mean but if she doens' want to be touched by you unless your having sex don't you think her feelings towards you isn't that strong?	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-07-26 10:29:00
Philippines	Story from Manila Times about Cory's gift to OFWs and 'crazy maids'???	I myself was an OFW but glad to say that I havea caucasian employers who treated like a friend to them so my duty doesn't evolve around the house most of the time. Weather, Singaporean, Maly, caucasian, or other nationalitites there are really evil everywhere. Some of the maids in Singapore doesn't even want a Filipino employer because they know how they treat their maid, it's like they're in their own country, if you get what I mean!	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-08-06 16:02:00

Does anybody have tried sending laptop to PI? How did you do it, what carrier, how much and how long does it take to arrive to the receiver? thanks for the reply in advance! I'll say this: It's going to get expensive real quick after you figure in shipping cost, duty fees and or taxes, and then you have to wonder if it will arrive at all or in one piece. Honestly, you might ask your brother to price one over there, and have him report back to you. Plus, by him buying it there from a reputable store, he can get warranty service on it, and extra softwares added to it at cheap cost. Good luck. Yes, that's what I am thinking too, the cost of sending and the risk of losing.	mossycouple	Female	Philippines	2009-08-25 20:43:00
