Until I tried to get my drivers licence when I was 16yrs. old. The lady at the DMV told me I could not get a license if I had no SS# It was then when I realized what it meant to be undocumented. I felt ashamed and embarrassed and my life was changed for ever. I was fortune enough to find a job when I was 16yrs old and I have been independent and supported myself ever since. However this feeling of imprisonment inside of me has never gone away. I feel like I have been living in a prison of life. I feel sooo guilty for wanting a better life because honestly I have a comfortable life with a well-paid job, but money is not everything to me. My dream is to find a job where I can feel appreciated and not stepped all over by rude customers. The wait is killing me and I haven't even been waiting that long. What got me anxious was seeing other people that I know who applied around Jan. or Feb already approved. It makes me anxious that something is wrong with my application. It's the not knowing that's killing me........
