This Sunday was quite busy for me and 3 of my group mates. We had to show up in Budapest, in Hotel Hilton (next to WCC and Western Railway station). As you probably know, we'll spend almost 2 months in the US during the summer. After getting on the IC in the morning, we travelled 3 hours to get to the 'capital'. There was held a conference, where approximately 30 directors of different American summer camps appeared to enter in a contract with European applicants who wished to get summer job in the States.
Our small team arrived there with the same reason. Namely to choose the most suitable camp, which is perfect for a 2-month-stayingand having fun, of course. As we were so confused about this all event, it took relatively much time for us to get to Hilton (although it wasn't so far, but Budapest and its traffic are abject... And we weren't in the mood either ). Fortunately, we appeared in time. After checking in, and listening to a short speech of the CCUSA Counter Director, we got into another room when the show could start.
Within a minute, the whole place was overrun by hundreds of fresh applicants. Every stand had a young man/women talking with the camp directors. We started to look for the camp(s) we had decided to choose before. Making this long story short, Balázs and Me managed to come to an agreement with "N.o1" Camp. However, the girl members, namely Réka and Dóri would have like to apply for the same place, they were asked to choose another one, which is better for their skills. To my mind it's unfair. They weren't told the truth directly... :S
All in all, we had a partly successful day. The Girls got a similar job, not far from the Boys' target place. Having a rather exhausted day, we were really glad to hold the signed summer job contracts in our hands, and to say: "We've done it!" On the other hand, we would have been happier if all of us had got the same job at the same place. :( We did this all procedure Together, we should've been given the right to finish and enjoy it with each other. It's like teamwork, you know. But we have no time for being sad now, as we'll have chances to meet in the US, too, during our day-offs. We're supposed to ask for American visa as soon as possible. It's going to be the last big "mission" before living through The Best Summer In Our Life as the slogan says...

It will be a great summer,my frend...Remember Kyle's words(from South Park):) : The Starlight will light on us...
Yes it's gonna be a cool summer for you guys. To tell the truth I am a bit envy of you. But next time I won't miss the opportunity to get to the States.
Getting a visa is not so difficult nowadays. Having an invitation letter from those whom you are going to visit makes it for sure, I think.
