I can't wait to recieve my WORK PERMIT to find a good paying job. Having a WP can open so many doors for great jobs. I personally hate looking for work because i might have a good interview & all of the sudden the words "background check & e-verify" would come up & just like that a good job opportunity would be out the window. But now, i can't wait to actually give a REAL ssn && REAL id. To work a real ssn & to be able to accomplish so much more! At the sametime it's kind of weird how we are so anxious to work & go to school when people that HAVE a real ssn never put it to good use. I personally know a lot of people who settle for working basic, minimum wage jobs instead of doing something bigger with their lifes. It's annoying how some people take for granted what they have.

DACA approved today by text messages at 8am and EAD on its way by text at 445am. Now the time has come to harrass my mail carrier...lol

I'm in love with your thinking.

Many doors will open up for you and everyone who is accepted. And a lot of people don't see the advantage they have until they don't have it anymore.

I have been in the United States for 13 years now. There is nothing else that I detest than to see someone who has the opportunity to be something and make someone out of themselves but take no action. As an immigrant, people don't understand how limited we are to goals, dreams or life itself. Being an immigrant has pushed me back multiple years from my 'to do list' or my 'what will I be in 5 to 10 years from now'. Being approve and given the chance to work legally or drive safely without having to look behind my shoulder periodically, would be one of the best things that could happen to anyone in our situation. So many paths will be open to us and I feel as if I can't waste anytime. I want to proof to those that have seen me as a failure because they have no idea of my situation that given the chance, I can be the best person I can be. I want to show my family that I want to better myself and live a better life than the one provided not just for myself, but for them as well. There are so many things I have been wanting to do for so long, that it infuriates me to not be able to keep moving forward with goals, dreams, life itself. Don't take opportunities for granted and take full advantage of them. We never know when another chance will come along. Don't be that person who will be asking themselves "what if" just do it. Let's show together that United States needs us as much as we need them.
