The Newest Citizen of the United States

On August 16, 2011 David, Jane and I went to the Emigrations Office in Salt Lake City for me to take the citizenship test in order for me to become a US citizen. I became a US resident on March 3, 2008 and earlier this year we decided that becoming a citizen is the next logical step. Here is what happened at the interview. I must say that I was pretty nervous that I might have the interview with some mean officer but I'm pretty sure that I got the nicest officer they got. He smiled and helped me feel at ease and he even made fun of me when he jokingly scolded me for not changing my address before I came to the interview (we recently moved from Springville to Midway).
Reading question: How many US Senators are there?
Writing question: There are 100 (one hundred) Senators.
Civics questions - you have to answer 6 questions out of 10. Since I answered the first 6 correctly I didn't have to answer all 10 :)
What is the rule of law?
How old do citizens have to be to vote for President?
What major event happened on September 11, 2001 in the United States?
What ocean is on the West coast of the United States?
Why does the flag have 13 stripes?
What is the name of the national anthem?
All the questions and their answers are provided to you in a booklet but I mostly studied them off an app we installed on my iPad.
After passing this portion of the interview, we went through most of the questions in form N - 400 that I previously filled out and submitted and the officer went sure that everything looked good there. We then went over the name that I'd like to have when I become a citizen and I signed some papers saying that the reason why I want to change my name is not because I want to escape some felony or other legal issue. My official name is going to be Dahlee Anna Johansen. I love to be called Dahlee which sounds like "Dali". My family's always called me that, even when I was in trouble :) and ever since I came to the US I told everyone that my name is Dahlee.
After we went over the section asking if I'm a terrorist or if I've ever been in jail, which I passed :) the officer signed and approved my application and then congratulated me for doing such a good job and passing the interview. In a month or two I will be sworn in during an Oath ceremony in Salt Lake and then I will officially be a citizen of the United States of America. I'm proud and excited to become a US citizen and I hope I will always represent my new country with pride and honor.
