Welcome Pack!

After months of waiting, it finally came - my welcome pack!



I was so excited to get this, even though I knew it was mostly going to be full of paperwork. The letter from Disney welcoming me to the company is so cool though!

Mostly I was anxious to get started on my Visa application process. From what I had heard from other people who had received their packs before me, this process is very confusing. And I learnt that for myself! The first online form I had to fill out was simple enough - it was the DS-160 that was difficult! Twice I lost my entire application because it didn't save properly, and then it was a mission trying to sort out a photo! But I got there in the end, and completed the form tonight.

Now I just have to ring up and make an appointment at the US Consulate here in Auckland for my interview, and get all the application and SEVIS fees paid for. I definitely cannot wait until this whole process is done, and I have that visa in my passport!

It's been so difficult getting all this visa stuff sorted as well because at the moment I have been swamped with uni assignments - four in one week! (Although, my procrastination is mostly to blame here). But, those are nearly out of the way and then I can focus nearly entirely on preparing for America! (Apart from those pesky exams in June >.>)

Right, that's enough for now, I'll update again after I have had my visa interview... hopefully with good news!!!
