Bank Draft

Today I learned how to send money to a foreign country. First of all, credit unions can't do it. So I had to reopen an account at B of A to send 550.00 NZD (about $340 US)to the NZ speech therapists' association. As soon as I get that check I'll send off my application to NZSTA to get certified in NZ. They also needed transcripts, (including evidence of coursework in dysphagia, interesting...), CV, and a copy of my ASHA card...Processing time takes 6 weeks, and once I'm "in" I can get my work visa. AGH!!! I wish I had known about this earlier!! This is cutting it a little close for me. Perhaps I can get a provisional visa, we'll see.


On another note, a 3rd grader pointed out to me that today's date is 10-9-8...
Huh.
