APPROVAL

Yes, you read that right we have been approved for the Vietnam program at our agency. We are stopping at the agency today to turn in our contract, agency fee (before it is increased after the New Year), and the homestudy fee. As in the words of the tv show, The Apprentice: money, money, money. Luckily the car should be paid off this year, so that will help. Just pray that nothing happens to it once it is paid off, because isn't that how things usually work, as soon as it's paid off it needs major repairs or is in an accident or something. After the agency, we are going for dinner with my parents probably to a Chinese buffet. Not too many Vietnamese restaurants around, especially in the suburbs, maybe in Chicago. But I guess, Chinese is close and China and Vietnam are actually neighbors, with Vietnam being to the south of China

Here is a map of Vietnam:

China is to the north with Laos and Cambodia immediately to the west and to the east is the South China Sea and the Gulf of Tonkin. If you click on the map you can see it in more detail.
