2016年6月24日，北京，安家楼。
这个签证果然和想象中一样艰难。看着别的F1顺顺当当地水果，我也只有羡慕一番，然后低下头想我要说的一切答案。那么多的问题，都要有一个答案。那么多的答案，只为了一个结果。
后来听说，今天下午安家楼签证的一共3000人。

被分配到了因为人多所以在录指纹的窗口旁边加开了的五个窗口的其中之一，对，就是在乱哄哄的大厅里。担心听力被干扰的我本想借着去restroom的机会去里面签，同行的在门外偶遇的想要签全英文而不果的美女同学说，算了，相信命运的安排吧。于是我横下心来，乖乖地站在了被分配到的窗口前。于是，羡慕地看着旁边的窗口一个个都拿着蓝条开心离去，看着同学以熟练的英语不到一分钟就水果，而我面前的窗口自我站在那儿之后就没有动过，窗子里面的年轻VO对面前这签B2的三口之家一个一个人轮流盘问，敲电脑，盘问，敲电脑，站在外面一点的爸爸都有点不耐烦了，而站在后面的我，更是心底开始无措。
幸运的是，三口之家领着蓝色条子，如释重负地离开了。我走上前去。

VO在惯性地讲中文，而我说Hi, good afternoon.
之后一律英文对话。
所幸此时的我的听力已经大大好过考托时候，一句不落地听懂，没有用到sorry或是pardon.

Me: I'm here applying for student visa. (giving him my passport and I-20)
VO: OK. So you go to~~~? Great.
Me: Yeah, I'm going to pursue my Master Degree there.
VO: So your major is, organizational leadership?
Me: Yeah, leadership.
VO: How long is your program?
Me: 19 months.
VO: OK... tell me something about your program.
Me: (being afraid of being asked a big question like that, and being a little nervous), saying something like "and I want to be a principal now", and "proffesional knowlege combining my working experience will make me the most competitive one in my area" >>>>
VO: OK... (checking my passport carefully) Have you ever been abroad?
Me: Yeah, I went to America last summer, traveling several places like New York, Boston, Washington DC, and Orlando, I love Universal Studio.(try to smile and infect him and fail)
VO: OK...do you remember how long you stay there?
Me: less than one month, I think, maybe 26 days.
VO: (still checking the stamps) About a month, yeah?
Me: You can say that, it was July.
VO: You went to Canada too?
Me: No, I 转机 in Canada.
VO: OK...（此时他开启了敲键盘模式）any relatives in U.S.?
Me: Yeah, my sister~~~. She is working in~~~. Would you like to see her(forgetting the word 驾驶证)， something about her？
VO: Yes，please.
Me: (give him her license) I also have her, (forget again) tax?(show him on the window)
VO: No, this is enough. (tapping his keyboard, tapping and tapping)
Me: (此时我开启了没话找话说的模式)She has been there for sixteen years.
VO: She is a citizen, yeah?
Me: Yeah
VO: Do you know when she became a citizen?
Me: No, I don't know(really not. better not.)
VO: (after the longest break) Did you married?
Me: Yeah
VO: What do your husband do?
Me: >>> , and this is my family(show him our pictures on the window).
VO: He remains in home?
Me: Yeah, he won't go with me, and 19 months is not a long seperation, you know, he is a teacher and I am a student, we all have enough holidays. (try to smile and infect him and fail)
VO: OK...Do you have enough money?
Me: Yeah, my husband and I have a deposit total amount is 100 thousand dollars.Would you like to see that?
VO: Yes please, (quickly check the bank certificates) Do you save all these money by yourself?
Me: Yeah, would you like to see our working certificate? Our income is in there.
VO: No, I believe you.
Me: Thank you.
VO: Would you quit your job?
Me: Yeah.
(讲真，到被问道quit job这一步，我已经萌生了听天由命的念头，这小伙子刨根问底，锲而不舍，非得要问出些破绽不可，可怜的是我一边努力地笑着，缓和着气氛，一边完全没有把握他到底已经有没有攒够三条拒签我的理由。:L一边望着他敲那个永恒的键盘，一边开始了自我安慰，没事，考托就当学英语了，申请学校写文书就当练语法了，申请费托福费没啥反正还没交学费，大不了，姐下次再来签，再大不了，姐去伦敦了，不陪你们玩了！)
VO: Are you going to return your hometown?
Me: Sure, I have better opportunities when I come back, I have several best friends in 教育局
VO:？
Me:教育局，they can help me to start our own school.
VO: OK...(tapping his keyboard, tapping and tapping)
Me: I also have a friend who is the founder of this international school,(show him the prochure on the window and he is forced to look at it), she already offered me the principal position when I come back.
VO: OK...(tapping his keyboard, tapping and tapping)
Me: I can give you all my friends' contact(没错，我现在已经没有语法了)，their phone number and E-mails.
VO: OK...(tapping his keyboard, tapping and tapping)
Me: ......(smiling)
VO: ......(tapping)
Me: ......(smiling)
VO: OK, I can approve you.
Me: Thank you.
VO: Have a nice trip in America.
Me: Thank you very much.
VO: It's very nice to meet you.和 Me: It's very nice to meet you.这两句竟然是同时说的。那一幕给我的感觉，仿佛是经典港片中的两位枪神同时放下来了互相指着脑门的枪。。。。。。

我准备的所有问题答案都没有浪费，都被问到了。
我准备的所有材料也几乎都没有浪费，几乎都被递进窗口或是在窗玻璃上贴给他看了。
我的CV和工作相关的证明以及荣誉证明和一大摞奖状证书他都没有看。我的托福和我的学位证书成绩单都没有看。我申了几所学校中了几所学校都没有问。~~大学的大红色信封一路上被好几个同学认出，他也当然不例外，所以他完全没有质疑我的学业水平和工作能力，他所有的纠结都在于——我已经被“确信”的移~民~倾~向。
那么多的问题，都要有一个答案。那么多的答案，只为了一个结果。而其实最后，所有答案和这个结果都不再重要，重要的是我亲身经历并明白了一个道理，人生需要自己去争取，在那个争取的过程中，要对自己深信不疑。就像徒手攀岩。就像深入雨崩。要对自己深信不疑，才有勇气和毅力去坚持下去，去守得云开月明。
Lucky guys always believe in everything，happiness，love，and good luck.
Want it happen？Just believe it！
今后人生，无处不险阻，但是对于不再质疑自己的人，处处都能逢生。
求学之路还很长，梦想已经在脚下一步步铺开，我深知理想高远，要努力去追，以慰初心。

谢谢寄托的一路陪伴，祝福小伙伴们一切顺利！
