1. If you receive a long distance phone call, do not choose to ignore it - it is probably the embassy for the visa you applied for. (Actually, I was writing an exam and had to ignore it - but it didn't click that the Calgary area code number was the Chinese Embassy... which brings me to my second point).
2. If the Embassy website states "send us a cheque" and a couple of sentences prior to that says "company cheque" - do not attempt to send a personal cheque. So ya - in this case, I should have assumed that they would not take personal cheques, ended spending 20 more dollars express posting a money order to them.
3. Has yet to come but I am sure it will involve opting for travel insurance plan A and paying the extra amount for an ease of mind - but will still keep in mind to travel smartly - which - if you are unfortunate enough to be a "ditz" - you can't exactly "travel safe" - can you?
In other news, two of my friends have safely landed in India and will begin their AIESEC internship briefly. They are there to help orphans and something to that nature. We spent their last hours in Edmonton compiling english books for these orphans :) I was quickly removed from staple duty and to the more paper-cut threatening job of compiling the books.
