marksbetterhalf Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 I was sitting about ten meters in front of the " black pearl " interiew window with a lady from Hainan who is also CR1 case . She kept telling me she was very nervous and watching the people ... " Another blue paper from the " black pearl " she said . At first we all thought " blue paper " meant pass . I said to her " The black pearl is not that difficult "I was a little worried, because the black peark was denying cases for all kinds of reasons. The lady sitting beside me kept praying " please don't let me get the black lady for my interview ".At 11:20 am my number was called for window 25 . I said to myself " oh I am sure I will pass " . I confidently walked toward to the window and smiled at the guy said " good morning " . He replied " morning ". I thought he would ask for my photos and emails and some papers . So I took out all the stuffs from the bag while he began to ask me " Do you speak English ? " I said " Yes " ." where did you meet your husband ?" " I met my husband at AFF on 29th Feb , 2004 . " He began to check our file . He asked me again " how many kids do you have ? will he go to the states with you ? " I said to him " He just finished Beijing People University on master degree and is now working in Shanghai HSBC Co ." He smiled at me and said " good university and good job " . After that he gave me the pink paper (not white ) and said " you are approved " . After I got the paper , I talked with him " you didn't ask for my papers and photos " .I also said to him " You can know my true story of my love for my husband on CFL ." He said he would "In my opinion , if you can speak good English ,you should have no problem passing the interview . And when you go to the window , better look into the VOs eyes and smile at the VO with confidence . Dannie Link to comment

shyaushu Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Congratulations and that was an interesting account of your experience. It also looks like another example of a good result when someone is just simply "themselves." We're all different; our only choice is to "go with what we've got." Link to comment
