It is 10 days.
Nothing special, but I receive the mail. It is my Debit card from the Citibank. I decide to deposit the large amount of cash another day.
The school office is closed today until the 5th Jan. So I can’t go to register.
Maybe I should begin to recite words.

My aunt rests today. She gives me the Muni Pass to let me take a free bus trip.
I visit the online website (http://www.sfmta.com/cms/home/sfmta.php) to check some information. I want to go to the USF and test the travel time. In the website, you can type your start point and end point to make the trip plan on a map. It’s easy to use if you know the name of the location where you live and go.
OK. Let’s do it.
Start:
Mission St & Highland Ave, San Francisco
End:
University of San Francisco, San Francisco
After setting up the S&E points, there are some plans for you to choose. I choose a straight path showing on the map.

After near 15 years living in the United States, my little cousin sister- gets the American nationality finally. And go to some place to take an oath. I forget what the place name is. It seems like a theater. The new citizens sit in the first floor, the family and guests sit on the upper floor. In the center of front, there is a big layout stage.
In the beginning, an officer comes to give a speech in many language. As many as I know: English(absolutely), Cantonese, Russian, Indian,Pilipino,etc. Speaking so hard, the man sweats.
Then many officers of different departments come to preach what they can do for the new citizens.Like how to vote, how to get a U.S passport.

Today little uncle take me to open an account in CITIBANK. Accurately, there are two accounts founded.
In the States, one person who want an bank account should have two accounts. One is Checking account, the other is Saving account. The Checking is used for the consumption. It’s most frequently used account, but the money in this account is no interest. The Saving account is used for the deposits, and money in this account can not be used directly.

Today we go for shopping. Grandma writes a list of things to buy.
First little uncle drives us to the Foodsco to buy pork ribs.
Then we go to Costco to buy rice, milk, eggs and so on. In particular, I want to introduce the “Roast Chicken”. It weighs 4or5 lbs, smells very appetizing, and just cost 5 dollars. In one word, it’s very cost-effective.
Finally we go to the New World Seafood Market to buy some vegetable.

In order to get a bank account, I and my big uncle went to the SSO (Social Security Offices) today for a SSN (Social Security Number).
But I did not get through the application. Because three reasons:
1. I went there too early to let my information passed from the USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services).It would take 10 days after the time when I entered the U.S. So, the suitable time for coming will be Dec. 21st.
2. I did not bring my I-20 form.
3. I did not have a identification from the school. That could be the reason that I need a SSN.
