man, i didn't know about the clear folder. wish i had said something. i have to say until i submitted the passport application, i was shaking. hehehe even while iw as signing the application, i was shaking. the lady at the post office kept laughing so hard. she even commented about my photo glued to the naturalization certificate that i looked sad and scared. then she saw the two photos i had for passport and said, no you can do better. she took my photo numerous times until she was happy with the way i looked on the photo. i kept telling her, lady there's nothing you can do about my nose. it';s just big
.
i paid expedited, all that, even though the lady was insisting i apply normal processing. she was saying too much money, and it will arrive about the same time as expedited. i'm like, i have spend so much money on immigration process, i won't cheap out on passport now. GIVE ME MY PASSPORT
oh and yeah, when i entered the post office, during lunch hours, i stood in the middle and said
i woke up american today. they all looked. hahaha middle aged people. one asked naturalized? i said yes? hahaha i sm sure there were thinking oh goodie, one more foreigner hahahahah.
i will apply for FOIPA and get my file. i am curious to see what they have. i mean, my file should be thick, i changed my status 3 times.
now, i need to get the courage to book tix for my kids and myself to go visit my family. it's been so long.
