My Visa Interview Part 1

Preparing for my Visa interview was very hectic for me, and as if gathering the documents alone was enough of a task, I had to memorize a  lot of information. I remember staying up all night sometimes and reading through other people's experiences and coming up with possible questions that would be asked. My sister and I even staged an interview scene with I being the interviewee.
And for some reason I was told to keep the news of my interview a secret, because my mother didn't want any 'family people' jeopardizing my interview. lol #jazztinz.A month before the interview, I knew what dress I would wear, the hairstyle I would have, the shoe I would wear and even the perfume I would wear.. You see, I read a story online where someone had recommended a certain type of designer perfume and even though I couldn't get the same thing I made sure I got a similar designer perfume because the right smelling perfume could work wonders for you. You know all these things in one way or the other, determined if you were going to be granted the Visa or not, or so I believed.
On the day of my interview, I woke up extra early and even though my interview was scheduled at 11:30 am, I just didn't want to leave anything to chance. By 6:00 am I was on my way to the embassy which was only about 30 minutes away. When I got there, I was led to a long queue outside the embassy and I began 'sizing' everyone up to determine if they had a better chance of getting the Visa than me. I saw all kinds of people in the queue, and I was wondering what everone's story was and how it was going to turn out after the interview. I had a perception of who some people were just by their appearances.
In the queue, you could see the mum who wanted to visit her son abroad for the first time , the students who wanted to start a new life as International students in America, the young man wanting to have his first taste of abroad life and the business executive who was going for an international conference. I kept wondering if I had a similar story with anyone in the queue.
Since I got there way ahead of time, I had to wait outside in the morning sun till about 10:00 am before being led inside.( There really is  no point in going there hours ahead of your interview time).
I then started observing the people who had completed the interview, and I devised a way of telling if they got the Visa or not. I noticed that if you were going to be issued a Visa, your passport was taken from you, and if you were refused a visa your passport would be handed back to you. Also I could use the general countenance of the people waliking out to determine if they got it or not, you could see the disappointment on some peoples faces, but others tried to hide it by smiling too broadly, but their eyes always gave them away. For those who got the Visa they kind of made it a point to show that they were no longer holding their passports, and they walked out with a lot of confidence.
You know, I was doing all this so I could determine the best interviewer to go to, I wanted to go to the one that gave out the most Visas, it was then that I noticed that for a certain lady, at least the 15 people who had gone to her all walked away with their passports. Her interviews were very short and lasted less than  2 minutes. I started calculating mentally as to whether I would get her or not, and when I realized I was most likely to be interviewed by her, I made a plan to have a bathroom emergency when it got to my turn
