New adventures coming...

Plane ticket - check.
Visa - check.
Leaving my home country for Pittsburgh on August 25th - check (and hell, I so much don't want to go anywhere...)
Debts - check (and growing...)

So it seems a new chapter of my life is going to begin soon and this blog is going to have another theme. I decided about three weeks ago. I bought the ticket about a week ago (what I learnt: it really doesn't matter 'cause the ticket prices don't change at all). I went to get my student's visa today. I'm leaving in less than a month to fly in and go to school two days later. I guess I can't do anything without a little bit of stress.

Talking about stress - what do people find so stressful about getting visas? The visa man at the embassy was a really nice guy. What qestions one needs to answer to get a study permit to the US? Here comes the list:
1. How are you? (Good, thanks.)
2. What are you going to study? (Human Security.)
3. So your parents are gonna help you out with finances, what do they do?
4. When you were in the US last year, did you study there? (No.)
5. Ok, you can never lose this I20 form. If you go anywhere, home for Christmas, to Mexico for a crazy weekend... are you planning to go to Mexico? (Not really.) No? You should think about that.

Done. He could barely tell if I speak English 'cause the longest sentence I sad had 12 words (my dad is a ... and my mom is a ...).

So Pittsburgh, here I come. Soon.
