VO: Good morning miss. How are you doing?
Me: Good morning sir! I'm doing great. Thanks. How about you?
VO: Please pass me your I20 and Passport
Me: Sure, (passed the documents)
VO: So SUNY, Buffalo it is! Quite prestigious, eh?
Me: (smiling) Yes sir.
VO: So what would you be going for miss?
Me: PhD in Medicinal Chemistry
VO: Oh wow! That's amazing! Fully Funded as well.
Me: Thank you sir.
VO: Can you tell me about your work? Or what are you expecting?
Me: I would be working on encapsulation of small organic drug molecules and targetted drug delivery using principles of spectroscopy and applications of biochemistry
VO: Can you tell me what could it be used for? Any applications?
Me: Absolutely! In 2017, Prof El Sayed, an eminent spectroscopist, worked on a very similar work where he encapsulated trastazumab and targetted breast cancer cells. I will be working on a similar approach except in brain cells, since till date 90 percent of brain synapses are yet unknown to mankind. So working on such a project is very intriguing.
VO: Wow! Awesome work. Please place your left hand four fingers.
Me: Thank you sir! (Placed)
VO: Congratulations! Your Visa is approved! Hopefully you'll have a lovely Christmas at Times Square.
Me: Thank you so much!
VO: Please collect your passport from Kolkata and remember to carry jackets since its gotta be cold up there.

Everyone around me today got approved! Cheers!
