"Don't look tense.The consul might think you have other reason for going to the U.S. We've already submitted our invitation for our choir to compete at the International Youth Chorale Competition in San Francisco"said our leader.
We're going to SAN FRANCISCO,CALIFORNIA,U.S.A for a choir competition and also I just want to go there because my of Mom.Because she was buried there. I'm so happy when I saw my paper was approved by the consul.I can now finally go to U.S.A!
While I'm walking home I passed by in front of our old house I stare at it in a moment..
Mom, look at our house, the fruit of your labor in State.Although it's a bit old,It's beautiful to me.It's a shame the bank foreclosed on our house.Now we're just renting on a small apartment.

"I go home!I was frustrated, because I was denied again!I've been denied by those consuls so many times"
"Jiggs,there's still next time.Like you said,Just keep applying until you're approved,so just try again.There's nothing wrong with that."
