This is MaKiki reporting all the way from Naval Air Station (NAS) Fort Worth, Joint Reserve Base (JRB), Texas. We just landed today morning at 08:30am. Ok, after we managed to cancel my dota's ticket and booked afresh we traveled from NRB to Doha where we slept at a very beautiful Hotel and by 5am we received a wake up call to go take breakfast and be taken to the airport for a US flight. The flight took 16hrs and 40 Minutes so we got to Houston at 5pm and the queue was long then we were shown to go wait in the immigration room which took 4hrs to clear and this made us miss a 7:40pm flight to Dallas so we had to sleep at the airport coz we got re schedule for a 07:20am flight. When we got to Dallas our host was there waiting for us she took us all the way to her work place where she has a dorm that has two beds, Tv, Coffee maker, Microwave, Fridge, Ac and a bathroom am writing all these because to me its rare for Kenyan Airforce to receive resting rooms or dorms that has all these. This is where am writing from since we have to wait for her to work till 5pm then we proceed to her house. This place is beautiful and these people really take care of there citizens and others. Wish i could join the airforce coz all these you get for free. But her she has a house 30 minutes away from the AirBase where she stays with her family. I will keep you posted for more steps but right now i need to sleep coz that floor at the airport wasnt comfortable at all.

heloo..my interview experience;
we arrived at the embassy at around 7.30am went through the security checks then headed to the reception where we were handed a no. we sat as we waited for our no. to be called. in about 40 mins. we went to window five where our papers were taken by a very nice lady...she asked whether i qualify with my kcse or o'wise nd i said yes..she gave an invoice to pay...went to the cashier paid nd brought the receipt back to her.we went back to sit and it took close to 1 hr then we went to window 8 for biometrics...nd the waiting continued for like another hr then we were called to window 10.
