A serious case of sadness

Post by Superman »

This one is has nothing to do with whacking off, porn, or vaginas... I promise... Just something I wanted to say because it is sort of sad.

One of my best friends is a girl who lives in China. She's actually a pretty successful business woman living in Shanghai. Now she is like a sister to me and we talk all the time. We've helped each other through some pretty rough times.

Anyway, she just found out that her visa was declined. Apparently her English is too good and since she is young, the consular is afraid she might try to immigrate once she is here. Even though she was here before, they won't let her come in now. We were pretty excited about it.

Oh well, just felt sad and wanted needed to express it...

Whoa, that sad to hear man.

Though what exactly is the consular?
"Oh no, oh yeah, tell me how can it be so fair
That we dying younger hiding from the police man over there
Just for breathing in the air they wanna leave me in the chair
Electric shocking body rocking beat streeting me to death"

I guess it is the officer at the embassy over in China that grants visas to people who want to come over for work, visitation. etc. She is young and speaks English very well, so they are afraid she will come here and end up staying. She has a good life there, and has no desire to stay here. I really don't understand our system here...

Hey this is the first time I have ever whined!

Unfortunately, my Krptonian physiology does not yet protect me from SARS. I will not be going there any time soon!

LOL :lol: (I'm happy you took it as a joke!)

BTW don't go to the street, maybe a brick will fall on your head. :wink:

You don't want to end up like Michael Jackson, do you? In an oxigen-tent? :lol:

If she's so important to you, take the risk to travel there.

On the other hand Hong-Kong is pretty far from Shanghai and as I remember China is not in quarantine.

Yeah, you are right. It is a possibility that I will soon go there. Damn, we westerners are lucky. We can pretty much go wherever the hell we want, and the rest of the world has to fight for it. BUt, most Americans never even travel abroad! What the hell!

You'll be amazed that there're many people in the world that never travelled anywhere from his living place.

I know some old people in the countryside who didn't even visited the neighbour village. That's freaky!
