3. How did you feel when you came to America? Give details. (Respond if you are an immigrant)
I'm an IMMIGRANT. When I came to America I was confused with various emotions. I was happy because I left the tiresome girls that acted as though they were soooo awesome! They were vain yet LAZY. They must have fallen not that far from the apple tree because they weren't the one going to another country! I was also happy because I would finally meet my father who had made way for us in America. Anyway, I was also sad because I left behind the laziness of the heated days and the many islands we could visit in the summer vacations. I knew that it was a long time before we could visit the Philippines again because there wasn't a lot of money for all 6 of us to travel. I was sad because I left behind my ONLY friend without saying goodbye to him. I didn't know that we were leaving until the middle of our summer vacation, so I didn't get a chance. Anyway, I was angry for the short notice. I was also fuming at my bristers because I'm the oldest and I had to take care of them with my mother on the boat and plane ride. They were groggy and whiny when they experienced the jet lag and time difference as we moved backward in timezones. When we finally got to the JFK airport, we got our bags and went trhrough an expection of passports and metal detectors. Then we waited anxiously for our father, our only familiar beacon in this foreign place . When we finally saw him we went crazy waving our hands and shouting at him like wilderness survivers . He found us through the thick fog of people and treated us to flashes of his cheap, disposable, Kodak camera and bittersweet strawberries. Well there's mopre to it but I'll end it here. Maybe I'll write more about it somewhere else. THE END
