Hello! How are you guys?

I am new, obviously. I've lived in the US since I was 13 years old. I'm 27 turning 28 now. Just to let you all know beforehand that I suck at introducing myself. LOL.

Anyway, I was born in Thailand and moved to the states when I was 13. We got here in July 2001. I am currently reside in Clarksville, TN. I had my 5 & 10 year GC. My 10 years expired last month. LOL. I became a US citizen as of 1-21-2014. The process didn't take long at all. I've read so many horror stories about the process that I wasn't sure if I was going to get my interview date scheduled before I gave birth. LOL. But they were able to schedule it a month before my due date. My interview wasn't bad at all. My husband and I drove 3 hours to Memphis for my interview. I had to be there at 1100. I got there at 0930. I think waiting to be interviewed took longer than my actual interview. The questions weren't hard at all. First, he asked me to write down the sentence after he read it to me. Passed that, of course. Then he asked me 4 civic questions. I don't remember the first 3 questions. I, however, do remember the last question. He asked me who's the current Chief Justice of the United States. I heard the word "chief" and I blurted out "the president." He said, "The President?" I said, "wait, Chief Justice? John G. Roberts!" My interviewer laughed and said, "I was about to say..." LOL. OOPS! He passed me and gave me the paper that stated that I'd passed the exam and to wait on my Oath of ceremony date. That interview took literally 5 minutes. LOL

Had I known that it was going to be this easy, I would have filed for naturalization a long time ago!

Well thanks for reading :)

If you have any questions, just ask. I won't bite. I promise. :dance:

I regret nothing....

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
