Applying for a US Passport

I should have applied for my US Passport as soon as I got my citizenship last October 2012 but I had a hard time squeezing my time when I was still working at an Eye clinic in Winnemucca, Nevada. And in Winnemucca, you need to set an appointment with the Post Office staff who will act as Administering Officer. In Tonopah, Nevada, I just walked-in (I called them first though) bringing with me my supporting documents as follows: 

Unsigned, properly filled-out application (printed legibly using black ink only)

Certificate of Citizenship- need to send it in with the application

Driver's License or State ID

Check worth $110.00  for the passport fee to the Department of State

$25.00 for the administering fee-this fee goes to Tonopah coffer

Before I signed the application, the Administering Officer carefully reviewed the application first to make sure that I filled out every box correctly, and instructed me to say yes or no while reading the "oath", you know those stuff like, "I am a US Citizen, I have submitted a genuine photograph, so and so". She also said that if the US Passport Processing center has a question or concern, they will address it to me directly. 

That's all. I walked-in around 12:44 at noon, I was done at 1:00pm or so. No hassle. It's that easy.

I am excited for my new US passport and for my Certificate of Citizenship to be sent back to me.

Thank you for visiting my site. 

Have a good one!

Valentines Day 2014

Thank you to hubby for the beautiful flowers and the huge card!

I did not expect to receive anything from him since he'd been working 12-hour shift for 4 days and he's dead tired when he gets home so I was really surprised. I felt guilty because I did not have something for him. Bad me.

There was no dinner date but  it was already a special valentines day for me.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a good one!

Stampin' Up Class

I did not have an idea about this Stampin' Up Class when my new found friend Lisa called me and asked me if I would like to attend, nevertheless, I confirmed I would.

And so I learned that Stampin' up is crafting like scrap booking. I was introduced to everyone and I noticed that most of the people who where there were.. shall I say, in their 60's already. I bet they are enjoying their retirement years. The lady who was teaching us was also the seller of the materials and she taught us to make cards, (refer to the photos above) and she provided us the materials which were free of charge.

It was indeed very interesting! I can't believed that I have made beautiful cards! And, here is the best thing, there was a drawing and my name was called! There were three sets of prizes and I had to pick one. I chose the glue and the adhesive roller. 

So I went home very happy bringing the three cards that I made, the prizes that I got and the brochure for me to check out.

It was a fun and great night!
