Accepted!!

Our papers were accepted!! Along with a large sum of money, but I didn't really expect that to be rejected.  Now we wait about three weeks for the official packet to be sent to Pollito, and then he will have to hustle and collect more papers and do more medical exams, but the papers were accepted.  SOO relieved.

On a side note, while at the Embassy, there was a very annoying american there with his young Peruvian wife.  I say annoying because he was the typical demanding American, why am I in line? This is f****** ridiculous etc and waving his passport around.  He was also being very nice to his wife, but I couldn't hear enough to actually say something to him without obviously eavesdropping.  Why do people get married to people who call them names and speak to them like they're stupid?  

Also, in the Embassy I got to hear the worst Spanish accents I think I have heard in a REALLY, REALLY long time.  It's actually kind of embarrassing, because if you work in a foreign country especially in a place where you have to interact or communicate with native speakers, you would think you would put more effort into learning the language.  Their accents were so bad that I couldn't understand what they were saying, and one of the girls said a number, very incorrectly.  For example instead of saying one hundred and fourteen, she said one hundred and ten and 4.  Really?  Maybe I am being too harsh, but that is a basic thing to know and if you are telling Spanish speaking people what to do, you should put more effort into communicating well with them.  

The bottom line is. PAPERS TURNED IN!  YAYAYAYAYA
