交材料时,比上次多交了GT成绩单,里面是没有要求要交的,但是我交了,工作人员也没给我退出来,所以觉得GT还不错的同学可以顺带交一下,说不定VO看了感觉好。
当时排队签的基本上都是商务探亲旅游的,F1很少。摁完指纹排队,前面是一个MM,看样子是第一次来,有点陌生。
上次拒我的MM昨天在8号窗口,我心想终于不用再面对你了。感觉她签得比较快,过的情况看不清。
排呀排,工作人员又把我这一组领到了上次拒我的MM那里!我是第二个。跟组织排队的工作人员说我上次被她拒,这次该换人了,他们让我自己跟她说。
我前面那个MM似乎是全奖,很快就通过了。我又上场了~
ME:good afternoon ma'am. nice to meet you.(上次一样的招呼)
看来这个VO把8天前她拒我的事忘得一干二净了,在电脑里敲了半天后,居然还开始问我问题:
VO: so you are going to *** univeristy?
ME: yes.
然后没等她再问,我赶紧说
ME: excuse me, ma'am, last time I was interviewed by you, so this time...
VO愣了一会儿似乎明白了,说OK,然后往旁边俩窗口看了看,9号人还很多,7号快完了,就把我的材料给7号VO了,用手指让我去7号。
ME:thank you.
ME:good afternoon sir.nice to meet you!
VO: good afternoon.
VO: what are you going to do in usa?
ME: I'm going to pursue my PHD degree in EE at *** university. My future program focuses on ***. Its goal is to ***(说了2、3句,其中举了点例子,不长)
VO 又开始对着电脑拼命打字,我着急了,上次就是打着字打着字然后就拒了我,于是我赶紧说:
ME: sir, this is my second time here. I bring more strong evidence this time and I hope you could give me the chance to completely show you the financial
ability of my family.(因为上次被拒没问清原因,只能估计是资金问题,所以我这么说)
VO没什么表示,闷头打字。
ME: sir, I have a financial list and I think it can help you understand the financial ability of my family. would you please have a look at it?
说的时候我就往外拿financial list了,VO没什么表示,既然没明确拒绝,我就把单子塞进去了,他拿起来看了一下。
(这次的financial list我做了点改变,突出了“钱”,把存款、收入、学费等,所有的钱都用不同颜色、加粗、下划线着重出来,而且都换算成了美元。这样一眼看上去,最明
显的就是感觉资金很充裕。)
看了financial list,他问了一个巨汗的问题:
VO: if you are from Fujian, why do you apply for visa at Beijing?(具体哪些单词没听清,但是意思就是这个)
我记得108问里面只有一个很简单的和户口有关的问题,准备那么多,居然问这个...
ME: because I live in Tianjin to finish my undergraduate study and my HUKOU was tranferred to Tianjin.
他似乎不太明白,拿起我的156表,指着家庭住址说:
VO: but your home address is in Fujian??
ME: yes sir, but when I join a university in Tianjin four years ago, I have to tranferred my HUKOU to Tianjin. And I have lived in Tianjin for more than four years.
他还是疑惑:
VO: where are you sleeping right now?
ME: I live in Tianjin now.
他大概明白了吧
VO: do you have family photos?
(因为这两年只回了一次家,所以家庭照只有一张,我还带了几张和同学的毕业照、生活照,总共5、6张吧)
ME: yes sir, here you are. some are my families' and some are me with my friends(急着想解释家庭照片就一张,说出了这样的句子,汗)
他翻了一下照片,又转头对着电脑打字。脸色始终不好看。
一看到VO打字我就紧张,心想别又这么拒了吧?反正不说也没机会了,赶紧说:
ME: sir, money is really not a problem for me. actually I also received admission for master degree from *** university and the total cost for the whole graduate study is only *** dollars. if I just want to go to us,I would definitely choose *** universtiy. but why didn't I? because under the condition that money is not a problem for me, I will choose the most suitable university for me. And *** university is the one because it provides the most suitable program for me.
这番话是事先想好应对资金方面的问题的,尽管他没问,但是我想他狂敲电脑看的记录也应该是和我的资金问题相关的,而且自费,资金问题首先要解决,就说出来了。总不好一上来直接就讲I will come back to china
VO没表情,还是对着电脑打字,虽然因为着急语速有点快,但是从头到尾我说话声音都很响亮,他肯定听得很清楚。
敲完了,他转个方向对着我的材料,然后伸出手。
我脑子里快速闪过上次的MM咣咣盖章的情景,心里一凉。赶紧说:
me: sir, if you have any further question, you can ask me.
我想的是你要拒也要让我多说一些啊,准备那么多什么都没说又挂了,多亏。
他摇了摇了头,说NO,他伸出的手,伸到条子上了,撕了一张下来。
我不敢相信,他把条和材料递出来,我拿着条问他:what does this mean?他说的好像是:过了??
我赶紧说:thank you sir. have a nice day.然后抱着材料就走了。
