Passport Renewal

So, here's the thing, we've been preparing for a trip abroad that's always been a dream of mine. We had it booked on the first day of this year because that's the time when airlines are giving discounted prices. And we all know that passport is needed when you have to travel abroad.

In the country that we will be going (praying that our visa applications get approved, *fingers crossed*), passport should not expire within six months on the date of your travel (the immigration might not let us pass). But ours will expire on the first quarter of 2016 and our travel departure is on November 2015. We decided then to have it renewed to avoid problems.

My sister set up our appointment at DFA SM Manila last October 2, she couldn't find a nearer DFA branch because of the short time-frame (we live in Makati). She chose 10am and I'm glad she did because we were the first batch for that day and we finished for about 20 minutes only! 

Kudos to all the DFA personnel at SM Manila branch!
