Today was the day! AKA the day of my visa interview. I wasn't sure what to expect, but knew it must not be too bad if I already had a job and everything else was pretty much set. And I was right. I rode MARTA downtown, and sat for an hour (Thanks Lauren for telling me to leave at 12:30!!! :P) before the interview began at 3:00 pm.
Now, I won't say it was a waste of time... but really it was. I felt bad for my fellow group members of 6 who all came from other states (Florida, North Carolina & South Carolina) for a 30 minute interview. An interview which consisted of the guy looking at our papers and maybe asking a question here or there. The longest conversation I had with the guy was how to say my last name. hahaha Surprise, surprise!!
But on the plus side, I shall have my visa in hand after 11 am tomorrow when I return to the office to pick it up. Much easier and cheaper than to wait for it in the mail.
