US Visa

For a U.S Visa, there is soo much to go through before you are approved of one. Let me explain. I am going to U.S on October.*more on that later* I had to make an appointment and it was at 9.20 am. So, I went to K.L.(yea, there is no U.S. Embassy in Penang!!==) as the U.S. Embassy is there. I had to go 1 day earlier. I SAW THE TWIN TOWERS!!!! =D The next day, I went to the embassy earlier just to be safe and it was the right desicion because the line was shockingly long..the 8.20, 8.40 and a couple of 9.20am people were there. You have to get a visitor's pass to enter the building but they give it out according to your appointment. I had to wait for all the 8.20 and 8.40am people to finish then I got my pass. They will hold your identification card. Then, I entered the room. By this time, I was prespiring like a water fountain. I had to pass through the scan before I got through the other side. Nothing electronical was allowed inside the Embassy. After the scan, I continued my *journey* towards the place. The inside of the Embassy was air-conditioned and that made half of my day. After that, I had to take a number and wait for my turn.. My number was A108. Then they called me, and asked for all the documents including my passport. I gave them and was asked to take a seat. Later, they called my number again to scan my fingerprints into their system.(like I was a criminal entering their country). I was asked to take a seat again. For the last time, I was called for an interview on why am I going to U.S. At, first, the dude thought I was going there to work. Then, I told him it was a school program. He seemed shocked to know that I was Sixteen. o.0 Maybe I dressed too grown-uppy. After a series of questions, he approved my visa and kept my passport as it will be delivered later on. Then something weird happened. He was like "I thought you were in your twenties. I wanted to ask you out for a drink" It really made me awkward. So, I was like "Too bad, I am not your age-type then." I flashed him my sweet/awkward smile and walked away. This was a truly weird experience for me.. ALL OF IT. Finally, I just got my passport back. The visa is valid for *drumroll* 10 YEARS!!! YAY!! maybe that is the minimum or whatever but I am still HAPPY!!! =D Also that dude, he added me in facebook... -.-
