Okay, I am back from the interview. It went well, in fact. But one thing at a time, shall we? Let's start with the meeting with Duncan.
As I said in the last entry, details. It's really fun to chat with him.
J=Me, D=Duncan
J: Hey, how do I look today?
D: You look great. You even smell good too. *smiling*
J: Really?
D: Yeah, what kind of perfume is that? Estee Lauder?
J: Noo...
D: No? It smells like the one my daughter uses...
J: *Your daughter uses Estee Lauder?!!!! She's just 13 or 14 only!!!!* Perfumes are very similar sometimes. I uses Lancome, Oui.
D: Oh I see. So where are you going? You even wear make up today.
J: *stunned that he notice* Yeah, I am going to the consulate. At 2 pm.
D: Ah, no wonder you can't come at 2. *laughing*
J: Yeah. and I just need someone to tell me how I look, coz there was no1 at home...
D: Oh poor Jacqueline. You look great.
J: Really? Thanks! *happy*
He's sooooo great! It's really good to talk to him. But poor guy, he's sick. We got sick at the same time and even shared the same symptom!! He kept saying he got it from me! LOL He said he wants to take me out for lunch today, but he's just not well enough to do so. I am touched. He really cares. I told him not to worry about that, and we can have lunch together next time. I wish he'll get well soon!
Ok, next. Photos.
Awwwww!!!!!! That sucks!!!! I thought I can get the photos taken and developed within 30 mins, but hell, noooooooo!!!!! They need an hour! I practically begged that girl to do it quick! She said I could get them within 45 mins. BUT! when I got there after 50 mins, another girl told me to wait for at least another 15-20mins! I was like, "what da fuck?! I am in a hurry!" and told her to hurry things up, I am supposed to get them in 45 mins! So shit! In the end, I left Festival Walk at 1:40.
When I finally got to Admiralty, it's already 1:55. I still have to walk to the Consulate and I got lost! I asked 4 people to show me the way and I just couldn't walk fast in that skirt and shoes! I was sweating and panting when I arrived. Luckily my make up didn't messed up and I can still have the interview. Thank God.
At the consulate.
The US Consulate is very different from Consulate du Canada. US is bigger but older. Besides that, the security is more strict and complicated. Bags are checked twice. No food or drinks allowed to bring inside the building. My precious water has to be thrown away at the first checkpoint... *cry* I regretted soooooo much why I don't at least drink some before I dump the bottle. The second checkpoint is at the entrance of the building. Basically our bags are turned upside down. Cell phones and other electric-appliances had to left there.
After waiting for a long time, the visa application proceeds. But the time is really short, especially the interview.
The Interview
There were two counters (we stand behind the window during the interview, and use the phone to talk to the consulate.) one is foreigner , female and my interviewer is a Chinese man, but of course he asks questions in English.
Here's the interview
J=Me, I=Interviewer
J: Good Afternoon.
I: Hello, why would you like to work for Disney?
J: Because I want to get working experience and it's a great opportunity to work for a big company.
I: Why do you hold a Canadian passport?
J: Because my Dad is Canadian, and I am Canadian too. So I got Canadian passport.
I: Have you lived in Canada before?
J: No.
I: Which school are you in?
J: City University of Hong Kong.
I: What's your major?
J: Translation and Interpretation.
I: When will you graduate?
J: Officially February next year, but the Semester ends in December.
I: Does that mean you will go to America right after the end of the semester?
J: Yes.
I: That's all.Ok, you get this blue paper and give it to the staff at the postal counter.
J: Thank you.
When I got there, I give the papers to that staff. She mumbles something like, "you will receive it within 7 days". I was like, "huh? what I am going to get?" I didn't ask her though... feeling stupid right now...
Called Kathy right after I left the building. She had finished her test already, but still waiting for april. We met at Pacific Place and went to Kiehel's. hoho~ Kathy girl, you need to save money!!! I called mom while I was waiting for them to come from HKU. Mom was like, "what the hell were you thinking to wait for your friends?" Whatever. Also called Duncan, but he' not at his office. I have just sent him an e-mail an hour ago. Not to leave him waiting~ :grin: Called Celia too! But she's having lesson... When she called me during breaktime, we talked a bit. Hope she'll get better too! (why are so many people got sick these days???)
Watched Stepford Wives . Mom keeps saying it's desipience. She told my bro that I am not objective, and worry what would happen if I am in love with my boyfriend... blah blah blah. I admit that's partly true. I am not a very objective person when it comes to things I love, but ain't it the same for other people? Besides, I dun really think the film is desipience. It's very similar to the Eng. Lit I had in high school. In addition, it's gelastic!!!!! I was laughing sooooo hard that I couldn't speak!
Hey, just some random phile here, I saw your comment on LoopyLauz's xanga, and was really bored so i found my way here. you may recognize me as lissie around the net, but i just HAD to say that your banner is FABULOUS! Did you make that? I absolutely ADORE it.
