I am shocked too. Dying inside a little right now. I am disappointed in my embassy, in my country in the attention and consideration they didn't give you.

From Vi:
Hey Jacob :( She refused it after like 5 mins..I still can't believe it! She didn't even read the letters I gave her..She just skimmed through them..She wasn't convinced as to why ur paying and my parents aren't. I dunno what to do now! I feel like I'm stuck here..I wanna get out! Is there other options? Other countries? I just can't stay here..I feel hopeless! I'm still shocked..she just gave me a refusal paper and i really couldn't believe it..After waiting for almost 4 hours with hundreds of people..i did the interview standing..at 12 pm..that's how unorganized they were..it's just the most horrible feeling ever! I am really sorry..I really looked in her eyes but she kept her eyes on either her computer or some papers..she's the one who didn't make eye contact with me. I did eat before the interview..I was really relaxed.. I even met a guy from Columbia and we were joking around and I was feeling really positive and good. Then after she refused it I just went back home..I'm really trying hard not to cry so mum won't notice! But I feel like exploding! I'm really sorry..I still hope there's other options :(

I need maybe an hour or two to recover - I can't think straight right now. There is still the possibility of reporting yourself as a refugee at the UNHCR field office - I am sure you could at least go and consult them and talk to someone - maybe you don't have to give them you real name and info. You can try to apply to other embassies I suppose. You could apply to colleges in the U.S. here and attempt a student visa.
As S____ says, if you are in immediate danger or your father tries to take your passport, you could go to a shelter in _____ or report to the UNHCR field office.
I am so sorry Vi. So sorry

The United States is a farce and the Dream we tout as bedrock has always been and will continue to be a shell game where underneath every attractive shell you'll find smoke and mirrors nestled in a bed of bullshit.
