To Easyman82 & Sublime,
Thanks to both of you for the feedbacks. I suppose there isn't much I can do differently, and I do want to respect Emirates' rules.
As for ETIHAD, I'll just be patient and wait a bit longer... I just know people getting a response for AD after a day or 2 applying (on-line), and in the e-mail it stated "we will be in touch with you again shortly" so..... fingers crossed (i have not stopped thinking about them ...) & I hope I'll get an AD invite or at least a rejection e-mail.
truely, good luck to everyone who's waiting
