Have you thought about staying?

I wish it was that easy.
Yes I've thought about it.

But I'd have to either get another student visa by first getting accepted into a PhD program with full funding, get married, or get a job with a company that is qualified to sponsor non-EU employees. The first I'm not sure I want to do yet. I need a break from postgraduate education. The second I'm not sure I want either. I'm happy not being married. The third is not going to happen anytime soon because I need my degree first and I will not find out results until December, in which I have to leave the country by January 1st because my current student visa expires.
So. Back to America it is.
"Yes, I am a Free Lover. I have an inalienable, constitutional and natural right to love whom I may, to love as long or as short a period as I can; to change that love every day if I please, and with that right neither you nor any law you can frame have any right to interfere. And I have the further right to demand a free and unrestricted exercise of that right, and it is your duty not only to accord it, but as a community, to see I am protected in it. I trust that I am fully understood, for I mean just that, and nothing else."

Gotcha.

Pain in the arse, isn't it?

Whereas I'm almost always getting advertisements telling me I qualify for a green card.

A green card for NZ? Or are we Americans sending out bulk green card offers to other countries now? :p

I know a lot of Kiwis and Aussie who get the advertisements for green cards to the US. I guess they target certain regions.

Oh, it's also, "apply and for a fee . . ."

I don't need a visa to get to Turkey

Nor I. I just go to the frozen section of the supermarkets and there are the turkeys.
