#1 Talking on the phone
and
#2 Talking to government officials.
And doing these at the same time? Eek! No thanks!
So, for now I'm waiting again. Waiting for that phone call...in french!

My File is Closed
Last week was that time again...time to work on my Visa. Again. I was told to wait for a call telling me when my papers would be ready. I have found that the 2 hardest times when learning a foreign language is:
#1 Talking on the phone
and
#2 Talking to government officials.
I waited and waited and finally decided to head to the government office to see what I needed to do. When it was finally my turn in line, (after the large, scary looking man visited with the government official, surrounded by the police, who then blocked the door so he couldn't leave and asked him when he's leaving the island) the lady smiled at me. Smiled? At me? That was a first! Then she told me that my file is closed. Closed? Pardon? I was a little worried I would have to start this process all over again! I think she saw my worry and told me that I have finished everything and my 1-year card is being made! Yippee! Good news!

I pray it all works out for you! It can be scary dealing with government officials in another land and in another language for sure. God bless. xx
