So, in order to get a visa, I have to do a series of increasingly odd things, not limited to getting 3 (not four, which is weird because they come in packs of 2) passport photos and getting documents apostilled.
What is an apostille, you might ask?
It's a note from the state of California saying that a signature is legitimate. Essentially, it's California saying that the notary is real. The notary said that he saw me sign a document. I said the document is real. Theoretically, the document could be false, but who cares because I signed something saying it was real. It's all very bureaucratic.
