This week was, perhaps, the most nervous I’ve ever had. Right after I came from camp GLOW, I applied
for a Bulgarian “D” visa, which is a really long and terrible process. I’ve booked train tickets on 22nd
of August, and had to arrive on 24th. ( right on Independency Day of
Ukraine). For a week I was calling to Embassy with a hope that I got my visa,
but every time I got the answer that my
visa is on agreement process. The worst words to hear really. Sooo, time flies,
time comes, a date of departure is
closer and closer and I still don’t have visa.
21th no visa. I asked them if there were a possibility of
receiving it on next day, but as they explained; I could get it only if
Bulgaria accepts my application between 9-10am, then maybe I can get it. But
well I was ready to sleep over at the Embassy, begging for visa, because acc
I’ve had 2 options either I return my train tickets and maybe come late, ( and
just not really cool when everything messed up and you need to start everything
from the beginning) or I come in the morning ( because I had to take translated
docs )and my parents will bring me my luggage, that ive packed, again having no
idea what to expect. This awkward feeling, you know, when you are packing
clothes, having no idea of what will be the next day, of this visa, of nothing
at all!
Well, it’s better to call everything as “ A long hard road
out of hell”. Earlier, before applying I just joked that “I’ll receive my visa
just on a day of my departure” And actually, I don’t know what happened, but it
was a Miracle, a real Miracle!!! At 11 am I was already at the Embassy, I
waited for a long, again I met an awesome Bulgarian guardian : ) , waited, and
I was informed that I’ve already got my visa. I was too shocked, I jumped and
screamed just right there in a centre of the Embassy made other laughing. I
couldn’t believe, I thanked to everyone there, hysteria!
Then I called to parents, and yes I go…I go to Bulgaria.
