I had my visa interview today. It's been a journey so far and I can't wait to see it through and be in Germany soon. Thanks to everyone contributing their little piece of information here and there, you never truly know how much you are of benefit.

The night before, i went through all my docs one last time, i slept by 12:30am. I woke up before my alarm, by 4:30am, it was raining but that didn't phase me. I left my house 5:27am and could have arrived the embassy earlier but for my driver taking a wrong turn and eating up time. It was scary because my appointment time was approaching fast. In retrospect, I could have been way calmer because I eventually waited for over 2 hours as paulinus attended to a host of attendees. It was a relatively slow process as it was only him sorting documents. He actually omitted me purposely, i was 3rd on the queue, he asked me "what visa are you here for?" and I blanked. I said " long term visa". I was technically right, wasn't I? Lol. Anyways after the hassle, I met the famous lady with purple tipped dreads on counter 2.
