Merry Christmas! You are my best friend, and you have been there for me more than anyone, honestly. I don't know what I'd do without you as a friend. You got me to open up more, and didn't stop talking to me when I overshared my issues. Your friendship means a lot to me, you have no idea. And I'm sure when we're ninety we'll watch all the crime shows that were cool when we were young, and flail over fictional couples. And do arts and crafts with working glue guns at the old people home
You are no longer active on this site anymore, and this has been sitting in my ask box for literal years because I just wanted to keep it forever and then kept forgetting to post it during the actual holiday season, but ohmygoodness. This is legit the sweetest message ever, and the feeling is still very much mutual.
We unfortunately don't talk nearly as much as we used to anymore, but that's okay. Everything you said about our golden years absolutely still stands, and at least for now we have that other social media site to keep up with each other's lives on. Anyway, I adore you and our friendship, and I hope life has been treating you well recently.
Carl Rothrock: Immigration Lawyer in Fort Myers
A foreign citizen may apply for an EB1 visa. If USCIS approves the application, the foreign citizen and his or her spouse and children may receive permanent resident cards and can apply for citizenship after five years. There are three categories of an EB1 visa in which the foreign citizen may apply: 1) Aliens of Extraordinary Ability, 2) Outstanding professors and researchers, and 3) Multinational managers or executives.
Aliens of Extraordinary Ability
In order to qualify for an EB1 visa as an "alien of extraordinary ability," the applicant must prove that he or she has an extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics. The applicant must show that his or her achievements have been recognized in his or her respective field. An applicant must prove that he or she meets three out of ten criteria below:
Receipt of lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards for excellence
Membership in associations in the field which demand outstanding achievement of their members
Published material about the applicant in professional or major trade publications or other major media
Evidence that the applicant has been asked to judge the work of others, either individually or on a panel
Applicant's original scientific, scholarly, artistic, athletic, or business-related contributions of major significance to the field
Authorship of scholarly articles in professional or major trade publications or other major media
Artistic exhibitions or showcases display the applicant's work
Performance of a leading or critical role in distinguished organizations
The applicant commands a high salary or other significantly high remuneration in relation to others in the field
Commercial success in the performing arts
Alternately, if the foreign citizen does not meet three of the above listed requirements, he or she can substitute a one time achievement, such as a Pulitzer Prize, Oscar, Olympic medal, etc. An employer does not need to sponsor an alien of extraordinary ability. The foreigner can file his or her own petition. USCIS does not limit the number of visas issued in this category.

2. Have you ever read fanfiction about 2? Yes, of course! I read anything and everything that I can get my hands on, despite how painful it all is after this past summer.
3. Has a picture of 4 ever been your screen saver/profile picture/tumblr ID? Almost, but no. Once upon a time, I was looking and searching everywhere for an icon to use here on Tumblr, but there weren't any good quality edited ones anywhere, so I sadly gave up.
4. If 3 were to suddenly break up today, what would your reaction be? It would be painful, and I would cry and not understand why, because they SPOILER ALERT both died, and why break up when you're finally together in Heaven? ...or whatever you believe in after you die.
6. Is 4 a funny ship or a serious ship? They are a serious ship, at least for the majority of the time anyway. They do have their share of funny moments as well, though. Well, more like cute and adorable, but whatever.
7. Out of all your ships listed, which ship has the most chemistry? Jack and Audrey, because of reasons that you probably shouldn't get me started on.
8. Of all the ships, which ship has the strongest bond? Ugh, another tough question. I'm going to say Ned and Catelyn, because of everything that they had to endure. And a bunch of other reasons, but you don't want a mini novel from me right now.
9. How many times have you read/watched 2’s fandom? Too many to count. I'm actually in the middle of yet another rewatch of it right now, to be quite honest. Why do I do this to myself?
10. Which ship lasted the longest? Robert and Cora. I mean, I guess we'll never really know exactly how long Cooper and Charlotte lasted, but as far as I know, it's definitely Robert and Cora.
11. How many times, if ever, has 5 broken up? Too many times for my liking, to be honest. I'm not sure on the exact number, but it's all good now, because as far as I know, they're still happily married and raising their triplets and Mason.
12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive, 1 or 3? Number one knows how to fight with knives and swords, but number three is much more present day/has better weapons and can take better care of wounds, so I'm going to go with Henry and Teddy. Sorry, Ned and Catelyn.
13. Did 4 ever have to hide their relationship for any reason? I don't think so, because it wasn't really like they even had a choice in their relationship and marriage, so yeah... Nope.
14. Is 5 still together? As far as I know, and until Shonda tries to tell me something different, yes. They are.
15. Is 1 canon? Yes, and they still should be, but life is not fair, and I don't want to talk about this anymore. It hurrrrrts.
16. If all five ships were put into a couple’s Hunger Games, which couple would win? Jack and Audrey, definitely. I mean, hello? He's Jack Bauer. He literally saves the world from terrorists on a daily basis. Well, sort of.
17. Has anyone ever tried to sabotage 5’s ship? Yes, including themselves. Don't ask me why, but they have.
18. Which ship(s) would you defend to the death and beyond? The first two, most definitely. I love them all so much, but the female half of those two basically owns everything that I am, so yeah...
19. Have you ever spent hours a day going through 3’s tumblr page? I used to, but now there's not really all that much in it anymore. I mean, as sucky as it is, they're both dead and gone from the show, so... There's still some quality things in there though.
20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the five ships to break up forever, which ship would you sink? How rude! No, but seriously though. Don't hate me, but I would probably have to sink Cooper and Charlotte. Don't make me give reasons, but yeah.. I choose them.
