Here is your Today's Aquarius Horoscope:

Things are going your way. Your desk is clean. Have a conversation about the future.

I can say that the things are going my way, yes. No rush, but steady on moving forward, it's all good. This morning I had to sign some papers, from Humanitas. Just to confirm with my staying here, and that I agree with the rules in this building, etc,etc. It's a normal procedure, just like we have the normal procedure of cleaning twice in the week. This morning it was that cleaning time again.

13:40 pm.

Showing initiative is never wrong..

That's the first thing the staff told me here, they help you around with things but I have to show some initiative aswell. I struggled with that first, cause I didn't know exactly what I have to do with that. I did my things what I need to do in my eyes or thoughts, but then they told me to take it easy. I like to give a good impression, but where do I start?  I did to much, in there eyes, showing some initiative is in there eyes, keep your room clean, follow the rules, don't be sitting whole days in your room, when they call you for something important, you have to come, show aswell that your willing to work on yourself, etc, etc.

Alright! Back to this morning, buckets, cleaning and dust towels, and all- cleaners. Everyone was doing something, they were all were busy. I swiped and wiped the downstairs floor, and that was it. There's not much to tell at the moment, perhaps later today. In the late afternoon I'm going to the church for the free dinner, it's twice a week, Wednesday and Thursdays. It's nice!

18:48 pm. 

On my way to the church for the dinner I had suddenly that 'missing' moment again. First I think of the kids, and then Saf. Weird though that suddenly I have such a moment, five minutes ago I was okay and talked with the guys, and then 'beng' it hits you. I was thinking of Tasn, thinking of how she might be doing. I miss her hugs, and her voice. When I have such a moment I rather be alone, and then I can start begin with thinking. Thinking back of her and how we use to play, I don't wanna escape these missing moments by doing something else, like I wanna stop the 'missing' feeling. I think it's also better to just let it come and then let it all out.

Like I said yesterday, I would like to visit Saf and the kids so now and then. Maybe, once or twice a year, that would be nice. And I'm actually doing some research already, cause I think you all already know that there might be a chance that they could send me back to Holland, I overstayed the permitted 6 months big time. Imagine your on your way to Canada, your all excited, and when you finally arrive, they send you back to Holland! Now THAT I am trying to prevent.


What's the research I do trough internet?  I search on Canadian travel forums. I told my story there in short and asked my question, I had already some answers....

~You should address your questions to the appropriate authorities.

  

~I would suggest also contacting the Canadian Embassy nearest you.

~Indeed NO ONE here on the Travel Forums are going to be able to help you... you'll be dealing either with Canada Border Services Agency (Customs & Border Control) OR in your situation more than likely will be referred on to Citizenship & Immigration Canada... see this HOT TOPICS Page = http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/index.asp

~Hard to say whether you’ll be allowed back in or not, having over stayed your welcome without going through the appropriate channels to get an Extension, may not bode well for you in the long run (shows you can be unreliable).

  

~The longer it has been the better, at least longer than your last stay and more than six months preferably.

~You really should have a round-trip ticket, and carry in carry-on bag some documentary evidence of your ties in your home country, perhaps some utility bills in your name, pay stubs from employment (not being employed can oft times trigger a closer examination of the FN), and so on. Not a real lot, but enough to show where you live and your ties to that place.

~the odds are favourable unless you have some glaring red flags: if you are attempting to return to Canada soon after an overstay, for example. Probable (emphasis on "probable" since this is largely like weather forecasting, no sure bets on this table) worst case scenario is being allowed entry and given a Visitor's Record for a short time.

~I'd suggest that you need to take massive proof that you intend to leave at the end of however long, not just a return ticket but proof you have a life back home , job , bank account mortgage , lease etc. and proof that you have enough money to do you without working illegally

So many answers and a few options, I sent a mail to the Canadian Embassy in Berlin. Actually first to the Canadian embassy in The Hague, but the answered me back by saying, "we don't do immigration and travel anymore, you can contact the Embassy in Berlin. I thought, "Damn! Al the way to Berlin, if  The Hague would corporate, I could visit them if they need something. Berlin is in Germany, The Hague in Holland. But, anyway, the mail is sent to Berlin and I will see if I get a mail back. 

Further research is needed, the sooner the better. I'm thinking, maybe there is something like a a month-visa.  Or a paper that you have to proof that you will be leaving again, I don't know. There has to be something, I need to know for sure I can come trough customs before I fly. Tips are welcome! 

Oh, yeah!  Dinner was delicious we had rice, kind of veggies and chicken.  Tomorrow again, but then another meal.
