Passport Equals Nationality

I have just received my passport (delivered to my office) STAMPED with a 5-year USA Visa.
This means that I'm now done with 3 , and am left with 1....
Basically, I spent the whole month of April getting the Canadian Visa, The whole month of May getting the Mexican Visa, the month of June (today), i got the USA visa....


Two working days ago, I got up early, and went to Trade Centre where the American Embassy is located. Search number One, Search number two, Please leave your bag here mam, Please do not carry a bag or a mobile, Please carry your documents ONLY with you mam....
Anyhow... from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm.... Im sitting and waiting for my freakin turn.
