I won&#8217;t lie. It&#8217;s been a lot of Not Sunshine, Not Palm Trees, and Not Randy&#8230;and I didn&#8217;t like it one bit. See, because I&#8217;m not an Amurcan (pronounce as spelled), I cannot legally reside in the Amurca (southern spin on pronouncing &#8220;American&#8221;). I cannot work, play or reside here for any extended amount of time. I love Canada and it will always be my home but I fell in love with California years ago and most importantly, my favourite person in the world lives here and I just can&#8217;t live so far from him.<\/p>\n<p>So, we collect support letters and a fun time line of everything I&#8217;ve ever done that is music related (boy has that been fun) and before long, I should have my visa!
