I haven't posted in forever. Mostly because of the whole Big Brother thing, but also because my life is boring right now. I'm waiting, along with the girl, for more news from Immigration Quebec.

Send all the papers, get a letter asking for an original, send it, get another letter asking for more, send those... and now we wait again.

Basically they need proof of the relationship, but because the whole thing wasn't something we were planning originally, we had to do extra. We didn't have the lease, phone bill, hydro etc. changed right away, so that wasn't something we could give as proof. So we did the whole letters from family, coworkers, and the managers of the building. Plus proof of her job, and our shared bank account etc.
Hopefully we'll have an answer by the end of the year from Quebec, and from what we can tell, once the Quebec one is done, the Canada one is pretty straightforward. Maybe by the summer?

So I guess finding a job and living here is pretty much out of the question for now until the immigration papers come, huh?
