How I did it: well i got my friend to be my guarantor, got photos, filled out the form and everything. went to the office, 2 hrs away, and it was all rejected for 3 different reasons.

i ended up having to get new pics (free of charge, thank god), new guarantor, and i had to fill out a form saying that my passport was stolen and had to pay to get a lawyer to notarize it (only 20 bucks, luckily), then drive the 2 hrs again to get it.

since all of that took so long to get done, i had to pay $10 extra and now i have to drive the 2 hrs AGAIN to go get my passport when it's ready.

Lessons & tips: don't ever have your passport stolen. it's a huge pain to get another one, and if you lose 2 or more, you're considered a security risk and will have trouble getting a passport in the future.
