SALIN NG PAG-UUSAP
Malou and Lita See Each Other at a university in California
Malou: Hey Lita where are you going? Seems that you’re hurrying?
Lita: I am rushing to the Consulate in San Francisco.
Malou: Why, are you going home to our (country)?
Lita: No, not really, I’m just going to vote.
Malou: Going to vote? But you’re a U.S. citizen already, aren’t you?
Lita: Hey no, I’m already a U.S. citizen, but I’m also still a citizen of the Philippines.
Malou: But on the other hand, you’re good, you’re a citizen of two countries.
Lita: Yeah, in fact my dad nagged me (about this). He said I should not forget where I came from and to also remain a Filipino.
Malou: Ah, that could be nice, how do you become a dual citizen?
Lita: It’s easy, just go to the Consulate in San Francisco and register. They will double-check what you wrote down in the application form for dual citizenship, and then you’re already approved.
Malou: Fine, I’ll certainly do that too. Please tell your Dad to help me should I encounter problems.
Lita: Not a problem, if it’s just that. Goodbye, I might be late.
