Here's my story. I'm nineteen years, I'm staying here on an expired visa, I don't drive, I don't have a social life, I'm pretty sure that I've become a guaranteed (or expert) liar (whichever makes you more comfortable), and I'm riding all my hopes on something as unsure as the weather (at least these days).

There are a lot of things I don't like about my situation, but I think that I feel worse not knowing where I belong. I came here from the Philippines and I know nothing about my birth place. English is the only language I speak, but as far as I know it's very uncertain whether I can stay here as a functioning citizen. I guess what I'm really trying to say is I'm losing hope and I'm wondering if the wait should be worth it.
(Hugs) Don't lose hope. Many of us feel the same way you do and the best approach for this is to try to comfort eachother. Think about it, we're actually fortunate that we can express ourselves and find information through the internet. Think how hard it would have been if we didn't have this great technology!

Just like all of us we feel helpless and at times lonely. We are afraid to tell our friends or others about our situation for numerous reasons. In fact, I still feel in denial. I feel as if I'm in a bad nightmare ready to wake up at any moment and everything will be fine. There have been countless times where I find myself couped in my room crying for hours. I've continuously blamed my parents for this, but blaming won't solve anything. So, I just hope for the best and not let this issue take a hold of my life.
