Today my passport came back in the mail.
It had a cool sticker in it:
That’s what happens when you play the green card lottery. Beware: it doesn’t only happen to others!! ;)
You play… you wait… you forget about it… you’re asked for a lot for paperwork… you forget about it again… and the next thing you know, you end up with a visa inviting you to rave up your whole life!!
2008 UPDATE: After a few months of trying out day-to-day life in the US, I decided I preferred to stay in Europe… Many different reasons (that would require a separate post).

What does that mean? Are you now allowed to come and go as you please? Or does it mean you can work in the USA?
