In other news, I headed down to St. Luke's a while ago and finished the first day of my medical. Lucky me I got out of there just in time for lunch. My fully charged iPod  helped me with boredom. Remember to bring the following on your medical:

• Your Passport
• Photocopy of your US Embassy letter with your MNL case number
• Photocopy/Print-out of your Appointment Confirmation from US Embassy 
• 4 Pieces of 2x2 US Visa Photos (white background and no earrings allowed)
• Black Pen
• Payment of $213.35 which is paid in Peso

I paid exactly Php 9,814.10. I had runny nose so I went and brought a huge travel pack of tissue, water, and Oreo which was handy for hunger pangs. The form that needs to be filled out asks for your information, your petitioner's details and also asked for a nearest relative in the US, their name, your relationship with them, their address and contact number. 

Got there at around 6:30am and was done and over with by 11:30am. The tests include x-ray, vital signs including blood pressure, pulse rate, height and weight, eye exam with and without my eye glasses, physical exam which was really quick and painless, blood extraction, urine analysis, and an interview about previous vaccines. Tomorrow I'll be back to get my results and three immunization shots too! Let's all say NO to sputum test!! I'm still keeping my fingers crossed. God is good so I'm keeping my faith that I'll pass the medical. ;)
