Change of Name

I'm so relieved that my travel documents have been dealt with. Getting married sure does add some extra tasks like having your name changed. I felt nostalgic saying goodbye to my Maiden name. Well, that comes with getting married.

Since I hate queue's, I tried to do things that can be accomplished through the internet.
