So, on Friday, my wonderful husband took me to this place. Very scary but definitely the safest place on the whole island...the USA Embassy. Let me tell you about the security! I didnt even know what they were saying, I just followed what Matt did. I handed over my purse & said passport. Lovin' standing in front of the gurkha holding who knows what kind of weapon. Thank goodness my husband loves me & didnt make me go all by myself. The Singapore government hires these gurkhas to basically be their CIA equivalent, I think...and he was standing guard at the gates of the embassy.
Anyways, all I had to do was get the name changed on my passport & it took almost 2 hours to go through the whole deal. Now, I'm pretty sure that when its ready, I'm going back by myself...eikkk! Oh well. At ;least I'll have my new passport with new last name :)
Oh, you should google the gurkhas. Very interesting. Singapore hires these guys from Nepal because they are known to be very aggressive, fierce fighters. Nice huh? There is nothing like living in Singapore!!

There's a lot to do when you change your name isn't there? Right now I can not find my birth certificate. All these years of keeping up with everyone elses I have not even thought about mine. Glad Matt was with you.
