It was a very exhausting time when I had to stand in a line. It was a few months ago when I received a message about my passport. In that message, they told me to collect my passport from the Unheard Passport Office. Immediately, I became very happy and went to the Unheard Passport Office. The office was close to our house, so it took approximately 10 minutes to reach there. After arriving, I saw a long queue, so I joined the line to receive my passport. I waited around 6 hours to get my passport. During that time, I watched a lot of movie trailers and talked to several strangers. I heard their life stories about their struggles. Afterwards, an officer called my serial number, and I went to the desk to collect my passport. I felt very delighted. Even though I was exhausted after receiving my passport, I was very happy and went home. My parents were also very delighted to see my passport.
