Hello guys, I have missed a lot here. I just recovered from the jetlag. A few lines of travel transcript won't hurt an ant, I guess.

Flight was scheduled for 8:50pm, July 20,2015. I did arrive the airport 3hrs before departure time. First thing on arriving the airport was to weigh my luggage, unfortunately, all my bags weighed more than the stipulated Kg, one of them weighed 44kg instead of 23kg. I was in disarray and completely paranoid, scared of coughing out $175 for extra luggage. Fortunately, a young man came to my aid. Trust Naija, nothing goes for free but he helped reduced my burden, however, I had to resort to travelling with two different "Ghana must go" bag, like Osufia who travelled to Amelika. That bag eventually served as my hand luggage, when everybody was rolling theirs I was dragging mine, I couldn't help but buy a faze cap to cover my shame.

Now, at the immigration checkpoint, Slimmy05's aunt came to my rescue. Consequently, Nobody searched my bag and I didn't pay a dime of any sort. After checking in my bag, I headed straight to the airplane, there was no time to play with people who went to the airport with me. The airplane left 5 mins before departure time.

We had a stopover in Dubai with a 2hrs 30mins layover time. We left Dubai exactly 9:20am. From Lagos to Dubai was about 7hrs and Dubai to Chicago was double the time from Lagos to Dubai. I had fun with the Indian bloke -Grofder - a Student of Stevenson College in Chicago- who sat beside me. He made the 14hrs in air super interesting. #but that guy can eat for the whole of America#.
We landed Chicago Int'l airport at exactly 2:52pm. Unfortunately, we could not disembark from the aircraft because there was no parking slot for our aircraft, we arrived almost an hour earlier than our arrival time. We had to wait for more than 1hr30mins before we could come down from the airplane. Immediately after that, I headed straight to the toilet, because I never wanted what happened in July 21,1845 to repeat itself. I did the needful and headed for the biggest interview of the day. I was on the queue leading to POE for more than an hour. Eventually, it was my turn to answer some questions;
me: Good evening
CBP officer: How was ur trip
me: cool, thanks
CBP officer: your passport
me: here
CBPO: typing while holding his chin and squinting
CBPO: I can't see any information linked to this Sevis number and also why was this I20 sent since March?
Me: (in my mind, if na joke, oga stop am) Well, my admission was for Spring 2015, I deferred, and that's the updated I20.
CBPO: Oh! I see. What course is that?
Me: Mathematics
CBPO: Your fingers on that, your right first, now ur left. Ok, now look straight to the camara. Thank you.
CBPO: Where did u study in your undergraduate
Me : Nigeria
CBPO: you mean all your life you've been living in Nigeria?
Me : Yeah!
CBPO: impressive, welcome and enjoy your stay in the United state.
Me: Thank you, with a smile.
After leaving his post, I started bouncing like a real American, went straight to claim my luggage.
The rest story ain't for public consumption because I was frustrated and disappointed.

The real hustle is here if you care to know, however, whatever it is, the hustle is worth it.

Thanks to God Almighty. Thanks to my TripAdvisor,Slimmy05.
Nairaland is my virtual home and everyone in here is my real buddy. Let the progress begin! See you guys soon.

godG:
At your earliest convenience, we need your travelogue. Enjoy US and clarity in all you do.

I will

VISA APPROVED...!!!!!!


I can't believe it, my legs are still shaking, I'm still staring at this building, all the sleepless nights and hours of research and rehearsals for a 2min chat that will just determine... Kaiiii.
It's all worth it. I am not lucky, you don't know how much i have prayed. So I am finally going to obodo oyibo, so il finally celebrate my birthday at Miami beach, so il finally have half caste children with long original hair. So il finally find love like Aarti and Yash.
My brothers and sisters, brace yourself, buckle your seatbelt, it's going to be a very long write up, get ready for my transcript....!!!!!

Excitement at its peak! I told ya. Congrat sis!

I've missed you guys. I'll be back soon

bhjedi:
Hello house, thanks for the wonderful work you guys are doing on this thread. May God bless you all.

I am currently filling my ds-160 but am currently unemployed. Though am taking some online courses on computer programming, the question is how do i creatively fill up this section in my ds-160?

P.s: I was previously employed. Going for graduate studies in computer science.

bigfrancis21, slimmy05, walspring, profojah, imperioux, sirriddy, bbdd, edib, innovativeame, zeezahbee

As at the time I filled my Ds160, I was not gainfully employed, however, I was volunteering for a government school. I filled the previous job I was doing before the volunteer service. Then I stated during the interview why I volunteered. Government schools were in need of good mathatics teachers and I saw the need to lend a helping hand. In your case, you can fill the job you were doing previously, state also, you have been volunteering in form of charity to teach students on software development -games and the likes - come up with a convincing and believable concept. Remember, your response will evoke other questions, be mentally ready to cater for them if the need arises . If you are taking some online course on programming why not do your masters online?# just kidding # Kindly make sense out of my nonsense. This should give you a guideline on how to fill that part of your DS160 creatively.

djmakson:
How come I missed that? I must have been dozing by that time. Thanks boss. Received with joy.

So, you are now Oliver Twist, how could you be asking for more , do you wanna get drunk?

djmakson:
The problem emanates from the fact that it's embedded in our mentality that life is a bed of roses in America such that when we hear something different, we begin to 'shake'. It applies everywhere in the world. It takes time to find ones feet in a strange land. Imperiouxx wasn't discouraging or scare us but preparing our mind for the task ahead. It's for us to have that drive and belief, work and pray and have an enduring spirit that things will work out fine. Everything in life is a RISK!

Preach on preacher !

Idmanzik, show yourself here oooo. Happy birthday once again to the best brother ever liveth

brosdoncome:
PF1 visa category. The P stands for both what the guy and the babe will use in commiting the act while the F stands for the act they will be committing.

Bros, you have really come #brosdoncome#

lomy:
The room we want to use doesn't matter.. as long as it has four walls. You all should excuse us please. We'll let y'all know when to come back.
Thanks in advance

Come back kwa! Slimmy05 and Lomy, you guys are raising both beautiful and ugly heads ooo, I don't wanna derail from the thread. Unfortunately, we can not give you guys this room, however, I've got a room for you both in Lekki Oxford Hotel, you are only responsible for the bills while I tidy up the room

sirRiddy:
Abeg I am in for the dinner o...
E ma gbe nnkan gba eyin mi joor

You can never ignore the word "dinner". Ojukokoro

DanjaNinja:
Sorry but i didn't get your mail.

I have just sent it again to cchubitunes@gmail.com
Please, confirm your email address.

DanjaNinja:
Sorry but i didn't get your mail.

I will resend.

@Profojah, I had not seen Awe2015's post when I put up my transcript. If I had, maybe I wouldn't have dignified your sarcasm with a response.
@imperiouxx, the transcript wasn't put up to make a point about the course. + I think I get your point, many have raised concerns about my choice and many more will but just remember "to each his own". This so called "American dream" differs for everybody; some people aren't just as "desperate" as some others. I made a choice to tow the line of Religious Studies - filled it out in Jamb form; I work with one of the best banks in Nigeria (take home pays the bills n gives room to save up A LOT) but I'm working away from this to pursue a Masters in Religious Studies (and not settling for a MBA) because I have a pretty good idea of my desired destination (and it has nothing to do with Priesthood). Do me a favour n send me PMs so I can invite you for dinner and more when I get to the destination!

Kindly invite me too,biko. I'm sincerely interested

Walspring:
Lol... If both of you are doing like this, what should i do then

You will "mourn-cry"

"Crying infact Weeping"...Which Way Nigeria

I don't wanna believe this is true. You are crying and weeping? I am mourning.

technolee:
None yet my man. How are you feeling now?

The feeling is worse pretty painful. God will turn it around.
