So today was the day I was waiting for~the day we would finally head to Seattle. Turns out we only had time to go to SF to renew our passports and get dual citizenship and all that so that was fine too. I ate McDonald’s all day HAHAHA way to go Kristine. The reason for that was because the Filipino Passport place thing was right next to a McD and it was the most convenient since we had to go in and out of the building numerous times. Anyway, holy wow okay there are SO many good looking Filipinos like wow okay way to go. I like how there were so many people there who looked real native haha made me miss the PH again :'(.
I had to go get my picture taken because I was going to become a dual citizen or something so my mom and I went up to the 8th floor to go get a picture done. Good news for me because sitting at the desk was this 45-55 year old Filipino man. He looked all nice and all and was real friendly so that was fine. But. Real friendly *cringe*. The moment my mom and I walked in, he immediately mentioned how “kamuka kong Hapon” and how “ang ganda ganda naman ako” and all that. MAJOR CRINGE. I got my picture done and all that and tbh I looked so exhausted haha. I suppose because I was up until around 4am the night before doing the last post and going on YouTube so I slept in the car. Eyebags were majorly noticeable and wow okay but lets not. So along with that, my dad kept sending my mom and I up there to get some papers Xeroxed (copied) and guess what. It was in the office of the same guy =_=. I think he gave us discounts or something for our papers that we had copied because we had around 3-4 documents and we needed 6 copies of each and Mom handed him a $20 and he gave us $10 back….but okay. I may jiust be overthinking it.
In addition to that, while I was waiting for my parents to finish their documents and whatnots, I was just propped up against the table, on my phone as usual haha. Suddenly, this 30 year old man comes up to me and asks me to sign one of his papers and immediately my dad responds, “She can’t, she’s a minor.” Turns out, he just needed a signature for someone as a witness for his documents or something. That moment got me almost peeing tbh because it reminded me of this time I think around 4 years ago when we went to the PH for vacation and in the terminal thing while waiting, I was heading to the bathroom when out of no where, this Mexican guy walks up to me and stops me in my tracks and says “I just wanted to say that you are very beautiful” and the moment those words came out of his mouth, I said “no thank you” and continued on my way to the bathroom. For whatever reason, NO ONE SAW THAT. But okay, it wasn’t even that big of a deal. It was just a little freaky to 12-13 year old me to have someone more than 2x my age approach me. And I don’t think he did that out of awe; I was a 12 year old. I think everyone remembers how I looked. And it was anything but pretty. For crying out loud, I had glasses and pimples and I was wearing my pink AERO sweatshirt/sleeping shirt and grey sweatpants. He may have just been looking for a victim or whatever. Well not this time, Satan. I wanted to visit my family back home so thank god nothing bad happened. I haven’t told anyone about that occurrence besides maybe Claire. Ugh. Much disgust.
Anyway, that’s all for today. It’s around 12:40 right now and we’re planning on leaving at around 5am to head to Seattle (perhaps lol). Just wanted to update here and then I suppose YouTube a little and hopefully get some reading in. Hopefully. Every time I try to read in the car, I end up falling asleep haha. Same thing happened with Monuments Men but that was an actual boring, lame lame lame book. I have better hopes for this book. I got Lord Of The Rings today too so I’m hoping to be able to watch that in the car during the ride but I’m not too sure how my battery will hold up on the laptop here. It took a lot of urging from my mother to let me get the movies because she’s all paranoid about little things. But I’m sure I’ll miss her little naggings here and there despite me wanting to rip out my hair when she does that :P.
