Oops I did it again or America please draw my lot!
missycola @ 11:21 pm Kategorie: Ego & USAThis time I tell everyone, maybe it helps, maybe it’s more luck, at least I submit the application for the greencard lottery at 9:44 pm (German time) and the ‘4′ is my lucky number ;-P
Last year I did the green card lottery the first time and I didn’t tell anyone because I thought it might help for better chances 
Obviously it didn’t.
Because I was late I did it over the ‘americandream.de’ service agency, who checked the valid application for me. They charged 50 Euro for it. Well, at that time, I really was in hectic and I didn’t know that it is generally free of charge (if applied over the official website of the lottery). From a good friend (thanks to Petra) I know that one only needs to fill out a document online, submit a photo and that’s it to take part. I did. Today. This time I don’t want to keep it for me (it’s hard to keep things like that for me anyway). ;o)
Last Thursday I went to a photographer to make a new biometric (special, how America wants it) photo.
How sad it looks, hm? Well, as you may know, it is not allowed to smile on the new biometric photos…
Today, after I came home from work at IKEA (damn, my colleague and I bake about 2500 cookies today), I scanned my new biometric photo, edited the photo into the right format, used the photo validation service at the diversity visa website (to check if the photo fulfills the strict requirements), filled out the application form and uploaded the valid photo. Ta-daah!
Please cross your fingers for me. It’s for the year 2008. Next summer I will know if I won or not.
Oops I did it again, I hope this time I’m in the lucky winners’ pot.
Normally I’m lucky in love and unlucky at cards but this time I need pure luck at both!
Otherwise, who knows where we (the travel-addicted couple, hehe) will be in 2008 ;o)
Your GreenCardola
