Incredible how life is.. Today i was finally approved. hear me out.

Alright.. i have been dormant on the forum for a few months now. the wait and the problems with this process was so many that i had to contain my stress and anxiety and literally just wait it out.

I might be known here from past threads.. If not, follow me;

I sent my application on the last week of August of last year.
It arrived on the first week of September, and was accepted that day.
on October i was sent a RFE, which was ok. pretty normal.
after a few weeks, i was able to collect all the evidence requested (pretty much missed 3 years worth of evidence when i first sent my application).
On November 26th, i will never forget, i checked the tracking number given to me when i sent the RFE package back and it said it arrived in Vermont and was signed. It's there all i had to do was wait!

then things got ugly...

By the end of December i was starting to get nervous.. my younger sister got approved on the very last day of the year. what a great way of starting 2013! i knew i was next!
January comes.. February comes..
By then i was losing sleep.. was starting to have social issues.. it was a disaster.
I emailed and called USCIS many, many, many, many times.
By the end of February, i received an email saying that they couldn't find the RFE package! VERMONT LOST MY RFE PACKAGE! Even though i had prove to show them that it was there; all they could do is RESENT THE RFE REQUESTING THE SAME THINGS FROM BACK IN NOVEMBER.

FUCK!

I had to collect aaaaaall the evidence again. Didn't make copies of anything. How would i know that they would lose my package?
after collecting everything requested a second time, i sent the 2nd RFE on the last week of February.
AWESOME! Right?
Well, this RFE actually arrived.. a few weeks pass.. the killing wait continues..
On mid april, wait for it, i get ANOTHER RFE. This time for something that i really totally forgot/didn't bother adding to the evidence. Basically i got in trouble with the police when i was 18. They wanted the court papers and arrest report from that day. FUCK! im FUCKED!
i was surprised they even gave me a chance to send them that information!
so i went to my local court, grabbed all the paperwork needed. Sent them all and it arrived to Vermont on May 1st.
Alright.. that's it, im thinking. What else can go wrong? I already sent 3 RFE's.. waited for over 6 months.. I either get denied, wait another eternity (losing sleep, stressed, anxiety through the roof!) OR.. or.. i get approved!

Well, here it is, ladies and gentlemen. May 30th of 2013. The day everything changed.
Every night i go to sleep thinking to myself: 'alright, tomorrow is the day' "tomorrow you will call your parents with the great news! you were finally approved! you finally got the magic text message!"
So this morning, hold and behold, USCIS HAS UPDATED YOUR CASE. PLEASE GO TO USCIS.GOV..
And there it was, I'm approved. They emailed me the "post production" saying to wait around 30 days to receive my employment card. Wow.. i cried. I cried of HAPPINESS! when was the last time?

TL;DR: IF I WAS APPROVED, YOU CAN BE DAMN SURE YOU WILL TOO.
