I'm a legal alien

Naina (dad) was kind enough to make a trip down to the Swedish embassy yesterday to leave my passport with them so the visa can be stuck inside, and he went back down today to pick up the prepared document. He happily sms-ed me "Visa has been collected, you can leave for Sweden anytime". Back home he was quite excited to show me the sticker that would technically take me away from home for six months. I think it's cool that he's so supportive, or perhaps my parents just want a break from me :s

Someone who's still supportive but more sad than excited about the visa, is the boyfriend (Shaun). He probably hates the guts of this sticker since it's going to pry me away from his side.

So four trips to the embassy, 3 'about me essays', numerous emails and phone calls and $180 later, here is my Swedish Student Visa. Yay!
