My first night in the USA California

So I took my bags and went to outside to look for a bus to take me to my hotel. First thing I did when I went out smoked my lonely Marlboro lights. It's was amazing after that long flight, I never wanted that cigarette to finish. Well one guy he was working there asked me where I am going so I told him where I am going and he told me to wait for the bus. The bus system was nice I liked it and o everything will be nice after that long flight.

The first thing I wanted to do to call my family. So I arrived at the Marriott hotel in Fullerton (10/13/2006).And took a room but the shit they are very rude. A lady who was working there were laughing I don’t know why. Imagine I am tired from the fuckin long flight and you see someone laughing at you, but for me I said nothing paid the money took the room.

Although its was expensive but the rooms was ok. The only shit is the stuff that is working there. I worked in Airline Company I know about customer service and this shit stuff need 1 year of more training or her ass will be kick by someone. Her accents looks like Russian or something I am not sure. Never mind shit happens all the time.

After I arrived at my room I called my family we talked about 20 min that’s was good for me. Then I went to sleep. The next day morning I went to the university to apply for the class. The shock was they did not arrange a room for me. So I have to sleep in the hotel more nights.

I finished my things with them and went back to the hotel and slept for 2 hours. Wake up had my launch in wonderful dinneys restaurant. And ofcaurse I changed the hotel too. I went to chase suit hotel. Its was lovely hotel very nice stuff and I liked it.

The next day I went back to the university to check if there is something for me. They told me that there is a sharing apartment I took it.

The Flight

I went to the ticketing area. And gave them my ticket and passport and left my bag on the weight machine to weight it so its will go on cargo. But guess what its weighting 38 kg. So they said it's not allowed to carry that much in one bag, you have to separate them in 2 bags. Well for me its start of the bad mood. Well I went to the shop nearby and bought a small bag to separate my things. Will I went to them back and everything was OK. Will someone was waiting for me and I sow my watch there were some time until the flight time. So I sow my friend and said goodbye. Well I am a smoker so I went upstairs and to the smoking area and smoked 2 cigarettes. I felt very relaxed and ready for the flight.

The crew announced for the flight and we went boarding. Thank god I requested for a window seat. Because I knew its long flight and I have to take window seat. Let me tell you the flight was very long and boring plus because we have to fly from Zurich first then to LA. And maybe 80% of the passengers were poor people for Kazakhstan or Turkish. The flight was smelly and dirty also the food was bad. It was Swissair. Form my old experience in flying its use to be good and good food. But the hell I never care.

I arrived to Zurich airport the time was 7:00 AM and my next flight is on 12:00 PM. The flight took almost 7 hours to Zurich. I was tired and went for a coffee. I really for the fist time in my life felt lonely and missing my home and family. I flow a lot before but this time was different because I knew I will not be back in 1 year. So I went to find 3 seats and to lay down and have a rest and I found it. My back was hearting me so its was easy for me to sleep because of the long flight... damn I just remembered that sucked...!

Oh man I wake up and felt I want I long sleep. Went to smoking area and had my lovely smoke my best friend. And took the train to the departure lounge and to the plan. Well this time the flight will be more long like 12 hours. I knew this will make me sick. So I tried my best to sleep. Again it's Swissair with small seats and bad food. After 12 hours of direct flight we arrived to LAX. I was feeling very exciting so went to the passport officer to check my passport and things. He was kind of rude but who cares after flying 25 hours. I finished with him and went and took my bags.

After I applied for my visa I waiting long time everyday it's was like a year for me. Then one day morning when I wakeup I sow a missed call then I called back guess what it's the American embassy calling me to tell me that my application is ready. I was very happy to know that I will leave soon to US. But was feeling little bet of sad too... because I will miss my family

I told them and I sow really the sadness reaction on there face. But at the same time they were happy for me. I went for shopping and bought my stuff and packed my things, ofcaurse that took 2 weeks. I took my ticket and made my self ready and the goodbye time came... so all my family came to the airport to say goodbye.
