Visa Time

Yesterday Christina and I journeyed to Atlanta to have our interviews at the Korean Consulate. We needed to do this so we could get our visa's of course... We got there without any problems, parked and set off to find the consulate. Fortunately I forgot the directions in the car, along with my wallet, so we were going off my memory. Basically failed. Christina had to pull the directions up out of an email using her handy-dandy iPhone. Then it started to rain. Turns out the Korean Consulate is inside a mall... We eventually found it and rode the elevator up to the fifth floor. After signing in we sat down and prepared for our interview. While sitting in the waiting room we met a few other people who were also headed to Korea to teach. One guy, the one from West Virginia, had been to Asia multiple times and told us stories about his adventures, and shared tips on travelling on the plane for long periods of time. The other guy had never been, but you could tell from his eager face that he couldn't wait to go. So we waited and waited.
Eventually Christina was called in for her interview. Within seconds of leaving she was back and just as I was thinking that it had been the shortest interview ever she told me that I was going to interview with her. So I gathered my stuff and followed her to the interview room. A friendly Korean man peppered us with questions about why we wanted to go to Korea and if we would be able to live on less than $2000. We assured him we could and it was all over. The interview lasted maybe 7 minutes. Back to the waiting room and shortly the lady at the front desk called us up. She told us that she would be mailing our visa's to us in the morning. Ahhh, success... and WE ARE GOING TO KOREA!!!!
