going to Ellis island was a scary time. The way I was there I saw a lot of people there but when they would come up and talk to me I would not know what to say to them I did not speak English. I was mostly scared when it was time to have to answer questions I was thinking about a lot of bad stuff that can happen and I did not like being away from home but when I was done with it it was scary but not as bad as I thought it was.

I arrived in Ellis Island to enter New York.
It was very hard because I could not speak English. Thankfully, there were people translating the words so I could understand. I was nervous because I was being tested in medical and had to get vaccinated. I also had to make a new name so it was weird when people called me by that name but I got used to it.

Entering Ellis Island was a challenging experience for me. I could not speak English very well so, therefore, it was crucial because of that I had people translate words for me. I was getting examined for any medical problems, vaccinated, and things of that nature. I was made to make another name to something short because my name wasn't ¨easy to understand ¨.

when I came to Ellis Island as an immigrant they tested me to make sure I didn't bring any diseases with me. At the time I didn't understand any English and I didn't know how to speak it so when they vaccinated me I didn't know what was going on. They had given me a new name so people wouldn't know my real name. Me and my family had come to the U.S because my parents needed to get better jobs to provide money to take care of us. Once I have gotten older I got a job to help my parents provide for me and my siblings. That is why we came to the U.S.

I arrived at Ellis Island after a long ferry ride. I did not understand many of the American languages. But I knew I was one of the only Europeans who did not have any sickness. When I saw people get processed some succeeded but some failed and those who failed got sent back. I was very afraid and nervous but I had a very helpful interpreter who actually answered most of my questions. I almost got some questions wrong like my name because I had to go by a fake identity. I answered all 38 questions and was examined for any diseases and didn't have any. I rode a boat to New York City and saw towers taller than the sky it was beautiful. Then I remembered most of my family but realized they had died coming here, so I made a promise to them I would live a good life in America. That is my story

The government was worried that we would bring diseases to the country. So they gave us medical examinations while still on the ships. We also received vaccinations to make sure that we would not get sick. I could not speak English so it was very hard for me, I had trouble understanding what I was supposed to do and worried that I would be sent back to my home country. The Medical officers gave us more physical examinations at Ellis Island. After I pass the medical exams, I had to answer 29 questions. An interpreter who my language helped me answer the questions.  Most were easy to answer, like my name, age, and the country I was from. My name was changed because it was too difficult for the workers to say. After all the tests and changes I was able to go to the state I wanted to live in.
