    My Plan for the Rest Two Months

    I have set my general schedule for this summer. So it is necessary for me to make a reasonable plan for this period.
     
    Several things that I need to pay more attention to are:
    1. My work in the following month.
    2. My IBT on June 29.
    3. Keep fit~~!!
     
    Some must-does are:
    1. Regard the work as an interesting experience before my leave, cherish it and enjoy it.
    2. Keep studying everyday for the test. Expand the reading materials.
    3. Eat less, do more exercise!!!!!
     
    Work banishes those three great evils:boredom,vice,and poverty.

    A Day of Significance

    My passport arrived this morning as expected, with my first visa on it.
    I talked to the boss this afternoon, and set the leaving date in July.
     
    I am always puzzled by myself, for it seems as I taking this F2 opportunity as an escape from work.
    Although my old friends still regard me as a diligent and ambitious person, I find myself slack and hate my time being bounded.
    I have been longing for a period of time to ponder on what kind of life I really want and what job I'm willing to bear.
    Slow down and spare more time for my soul, for its peace and subtlety.
     
    However, the significant event today was the retirement of Madam He and the new chairman's taking over.
    It is a pity that a few years later when I come back to Shanghai, CLCMG will no longer exist. But the respected madam and the ever marvelous existance and interesting experience of the company will be preserved in my memory for ever.
    The shining career achievement of Madam He also intrigued my desire to cultivate my own potential and persue my passion. The motive of such passion doesn't lie in eager for material things, but in somewhere deep in my heart.
     
    Bless for my journey, for the colleages in the company, and also for the glorious future of CLCMG.

    转发自己在寄托家园的签经~~附今天签证搞笑见闻

    F2 2008.5.27 SH pass?pass!!!

    今天排到了传说中的长队,签证时间是下午1:00。从早上10:00的样子排到12:30。还好太阳比较温和,否则一定是烤鸭一只。。。

    在广场前面排队,足见可怜天下父母亲。也难怪,现在出国的年龄越来越小了,出去读本科的一大堆,哪个家长放得下读书10年还未独立的子女呢?

    在排队坐电梯之前发了号,但是没有用处,好象只是进入领馆前作为进入的凭证而已。

    上到8楼后没有什么特别的,安检,拿着填好的EMS邮寄单排队,递交材料,等待返还材料,被叫号拿回材料并按指纹,然后就是排队面谈了。

    我排的算是比较靠前的。而且前面的面谈速度都很快。当时开的有3个窗口,我排到的是中间的亚裔GG,忘了哪个窗口的了。的确挺帅,也很和善。排在我后面的可爱男生曾很兴奋地问我旁边的是不是亚裔MM,因为比较严,但也很漂亮,说“决定尝试一下”~~

    我直接跟vo说我来签F2。他很热情地哦了一声,用还算不错的中文问了几个问题:老公读了多久了,你们认识多久了,什么时候结婚的,老公上次什么时候回来的。期间,他问的最后这个问题我没听懂,牛头不对马嘴地告诉他我老公去美国的时间,他很郁闷地愣了一下,重复了一次。我很紧张地回答了。他埋头不知道在干吗,我因为心慌觉得得罪他了所以没仔细观察。然后开始僵局,于是我直接要不要看我们的照片,他说了一句不需要就飞来一张绿条。我想都没想说了Thank you抱起没来得及派上用场的10斤多两大袋子材料狼狈地跑了。

    突然间,我才想起,我凭什么认为我过了?pass和congratulations我都没听到。于是我在旁边逗留了有3、4分钟。叫住旁边的大叔问他我是不是过了。估计大叔觉得我不可思议:这人怎么这么没心眼!!然后印度裔的保卫客气地把我请走了。

    我和随行的返签朋友一起办了EMS才结束了签证之旅。可我怎么这么 压抑呢?事先准备的材料一个没用上,除了必交的I-20,护照,156、157、158,中信收据。连老公的护照、签证之类的复印件一点用处都没有~~~~~

    绿条就是过了的标志??

    PS: 陪朋友去南京西路小弄堂那家宰人的照相馆拍照,看了他们的价目表我就决定以后打死我都不和他们打交道。倒是旁边住户有只超级漂亮超级乖巧的小猫,我喜欢得不得了~~太可爱了,真象抱回来自己养~~~~~

    再PS: 我等待那返还材料时拿的是422号。我突然想起22是我和老公的幸运夫妻号。年初公司抽奖,我拿的22号抽了一个和老公从美国买给我的一模一样的ipod classic。同事对我说,成双成对的吉利数字啊!!!昨天陪那位同事取钱,她告诉我签证肯定没问题,因为她取了6张,有两张尾号都是22,银行的凭单流水号也是22结尾!!

    今天学生都拿到了除了绿条条以外的一张白纸,不知道我F2是不是不需要??

    无论如何,感谢gter以及这里所有的人们。这几天在这里的游荡的确很开心。理性与感性的光辉闪耀~~
     
    附寄托一篇今日见闻:
     
    我们是下午第一批。进去时大厅还很安静,有幸庆历了第一位签证者(一个30多岁JJ)和VO(一个亚裔GG)的交谈全过程,场面极其搞笑。

    VO: What will you do in USA?(大意如此)

    JJ: 您可以讲中文吗?
    VO(转成中文): 你不会讲英文吗?
    JJ(大声的):我会,但我希望您讲中文。
    VO(无奈的):既然你会,那请你讲英文
    JJ:。。。(继续用中文纠缠)
    如此几个回合后,VO抓狂了,但还是比较有风度
    VO:(双手悲凉的举向空中):请你讲英文。
    JJ: Good Afternoon.
    VO:。。。(长时间瀑布汗)

    当时大厅里不少人都笑了,后来旁边有人和我说话被分心了,没看到最终结果,反正除了这个JJ出师不利以外,其余视线所及范围之内,几乎都是绿条。所以轮到我们时也很放松。是个有点秃顶的胖胖白人大叔,相当之Nice. 语速和审阅材料的动作都非常之迅速。
    (布丁按:秃顶大叔应该是传说中的水车叔叔,以放水著称。)

    Happy Sports Day Once More

    I don't remember when was the last Sports Day, but do remember the cheerful atmosphere at that day, just as today.
    I was a little lonely last time, for I had entered the company only a few months.
    I was also kind of lonely this time, for I won't have another sports day with these colleages.
    Blue time~~
     
    However, I fortunately recieved some rewards for participating in some games, including a T-shirt and ¥100, which made me more cheerful.
    The easy talk in Steaking also impressed me, AGAIN~

    A special May

    A great many events happened in this month. A great many are going on or will occur later in May.
    No sooner had I adjusted myself to the exciting or striking ones than others came.
     
    That pretty bride flied back, and will go soon, leaving me with endless yearn every night.
    The abrupt arrival of the overwhelming disaster aroused my obsession about the human and humanity.
    My last days in the position bring me worry about my career.
    Visa interview drawing on, I get more and more unrestful.
     
    Hope, joy, sorrow and fear are interweaving in this May.
     
    Recommend Keren Ann's melodious song: End of May.

    Close your eyes and roll a dice

    Under the board there's a compromise

    If after all we only live twice

    Which life is the run road to paradise

    Don't say a word

    Here comes the break of the day

    In white clouds of sand raised

    by the wind of the end of May

    Close your eyes and make a bet

    Faced to the glare of the sunset

    This is about as far as we get

    You haven't seen me disguised yet

    Friendship

    It is interesting that as a married woman, I still play or even spend the whole day together with the unmarried friends and I enjoy it so much. When the firends talking about the gaps between the married and the unmarried, I feel a little confused. Is it really the case that the two kinds of people can't maitain their relationship balance? Or dose the birth of a child necessarily break up the balance even if the marriage don't?
    I enjoyed few days as a single. In fact, I attached little importance to friendship since I had begun my first love. However, it is my marriage that makes me further understand the value of friendship. The distance between LZ and I gives me no other choice but to cultivate the valuable aspects in firendship.
    It is true that people spend less time with friends once they get married. But marriage also makes friendship more important than before. Marriage means sharing joy and sorrow with each other. But we can't share everything with spouses. More joy and less sorrow is the point in marriage. Where does the other sorrow go? Just turn for friends to banish it!
    Friendship and marriage, neither can be ignored.
