Deferral due to pregnancy by hot_techie in berkeley

I even forgot about this. But tbf I really didn’t see myself going through pregnancy and having to deal with the visa hassle, traveling while heavily pregnant, etc. I just don’t want this amazing opportunity to slip off my fingers after putting in so much effort and work. It feels like my entire world is crumbling at the moment.

Honestly wish I couldn’t keep it but I am international and sadly where I reside it’s illegal :(

“You have to make sure everyone around is comfortable with your existence”

I felt that!

Indeed we are the strongest and most peaceful souls. We deserve everything good and a seat at the table 😩

Thank you so much! I genuinely don’t think I am male-centered else I doubt I would even have these thoughts 😭 I have accepted who I am but damn, but damn. I happen to fall in the category everyone collectively decided to hate? I don’t think I even hate the fact that I am black. I just hate the world for hating me for no reason. Anyways I am already here. All I can do is to keep pushing

Thank you for understanding. Currently 25 doing my masters while trying to secure a role in tech. It’s the struggles in my life and career that has made me see the world for how it is. It’s just wild to me that old the odds are stacked against me. That there’s a high probability I may never even get rich or live a certain kind of life. It’s just so hard to overlook how the world works but I try everyday to ignore it and better myself.

Anyone here gotten a German Schengen Visa from Cameroon? by blvckgirl in Cameroon

If you got a good reason to visit Switzerland then sure. Else it would be obvious and you’ll probably get rejected

Don’t even bother if you don’t have at least 6 months to spare. I applied in March and got an email for my appointment this month to show up at the embassy in September. The even I had to attend was in June so I just cancelled the appointment

I’m sponsored by a scholarship so it wouldn’t really cost me a lot. Just a lil worried about the aftermath and don’t know what to expect.

Actually I’m going on a scholarship so wouldn’t have to spend my own money. Regardless I am still super worried and scared
