If I were in Kek's situation, oh boy, I would be scared. First of all, I don't have any close family like mother, father, brother, or sister. Second, I don't think I would master a foreign language like English at such a young age. Finally the temperature differences will make me go crazy. Altogether I will be pretty homesick but I would accept it soon enough.

# data[].attributes.body
I would be very confused if i was new to America and very fascinated by all the amazing inventions we have and probably break a lot of stuff by accident. Anyways I would love all the amazing food and wonderful views and call things like a hamburger the devil because cows are sacred and I would also struggle with learning because its not my language.

If i was in kek's position I would feel grateful but guilty. I would feel guilty because I am leaving for a better life but I would be leaving all my friends and family who might never get to come to america with me. I would feel greatful because I am coming to a better and life and I will be much safer in america.

# data[].attributes.body
If I was in Kek's position I would feel very melancholy all the time. I would have lost my entire family. I just do not understand at all how Kek is able to stay so optimistic even after he has lost his entire family. It is hard for me to think of it because I am not in that position. But, that is how I would feel if I was in Kek's position.

If I was in Kek's positon, I would be scared and homesick. I would be a little confused with American life. Being in a different city in a different country in a different continent, I would have many problems. I would also feel overwhelmed.

# data[].attributes.body
If I was in Keks shoes, Life would be very overwhelming and changeling. Due to the fact i'm going to somewhere that's completely different to what i'm used to and I've never been before. Also a bit dum because I don't know how anything works and have little to no education.

# data[].attributes.body
If I were in Keks situation i would probably be both scared and sad because moving into a new world after watching your family die could be extremely hard such as learning a whole new language or living with taxes. That is probably how i would react in Keks situation .

# data[].attributes.body
If I were in Kek's position I would be worried about moving to America and this would be due to my family because what if my family doesn't move there with me. I would also be worried about my friends because I want to be in America with my friends so I can have someone to talk to.

If I were in Kek's position, I would be really amazed at everything, and I would definitely want to try everything I saw. But, I would also be a little confused and scared that something would happen, for example I wouldn't know that there were bad people, and probably go outside and get kidnapped. But other than that, I would love to come to America. I would feel exited, nervous, happy, but I would also hat to let go of the things that I was already used to.

# data[].attributes.body
If I was in kek's position I would be worried and scared, this would be due to worrying about my family. Being moved to another country sounds scary, having to get new friends, meet new people, and pretty much everything that I was used to is now gone.

# data[].attributes.body
If I were in Keks's position, I would be happy to move to America because, in my eyes, it is the second heaven. However, I would also feel some guilt about leaving my friends and family behind. Although it might take me some time to get used to my new life in America, some aspects of it may remind me of my native Sudan, such as the cow. However, there is also the unrealistic anticipation I would have before visiting the USA: everything is fine there, nothing is wrong, but when I get there, everything would be totally different.

If i was kek i would feel very releved that i am now in a new home with a new family with no war. but also nerves and scared of a new life.being unfamiliar with everything would be a horrible thing to experience.It wold be awesome to see a cow do to the fact that it represents my past life. I would feel like an outcast and a visiter that has invaded someone else's planet. and experience that everyone is not so welcoming.

# data[].attributes.body
If I was in Kek's position I would feel scared and nervous. I would worry about my family if their alright or not, or if they are in a different country. If I just came from a country where I spent all my life in and now people just moved me to this country that had everything I wanted in Africa, I would've felt aggravated and surprised.

# data[].attributes.body
If I was in kek's shoes  would had a very confused. i whould be very suprised by ethe americans cuture. I dont think I will be able to adapt fast enough into there culture. I would more or likely be an outcast.I would need a lot of help.

I can't imagine being in kek's situation. If I had to move to a country that I'm so unfamiliar with I would be terrified. I would be confused, sad, and muddled! The feeling of confusion would fill my body and I would be scared. I know it's hard to move to a country when you're used to something 100% different! But now I can only feel sympathy for him.

# data[].attributes.body
If I were Kek I would be in awe of America and I think I might just jump for joy, wouldn't you? Of course, there is always a down side. I would know nothing about America and I wouldn't know what to do, where to stay, or the basics like getting a job, or just straight out talking. It would be hard to adjust but I would have cows to help me figure it out.

# data[].attributes.body
If i were in Kek's position I would feel very overwhelmed and in awe because its a new place that i'm would not be used to and all the new things I discover and learn about. So i'm mainly saying that it would be difficult to understand and learn everything so fast and that it would in so beautiful and interesting from were I came from before .

I could never really begin to imagine being in such a situation. I would never really know how he felt nor how i would truly feel. All i do know is if I were in Kek's position I'd feel quite terifide. I'd feel scared, nevious, anxious, I'd hate it. Being put in a place you no nothing of not even knowing simple words and meanings there. Simply being alone would make it worse.

# data[].attributes.body
If I were Kek I could be both scared and happy. I would be scared because I would be moving to a whole different part of the world, and mostly everything would be different for me. Such as the weather, lifestyle, and the language. At the same time though I would be happy because I get to go to a place where I could get a good education. I also would be excited because in the U.S I would have a easier lifestyle.

If i was Kek i would feel scared being in a new place with no one i know or no family,and no friends.Going into a new place only seeing somethings about it before you go would seem wired and I would feel alone for being different then everyone and having to learn new things with so many people and finding out how to speak their language would be hard with only some people to help me find out what to do and how to live in a new place!

If I was Kek I would be scared about getting a job and getting a house, apartment, or taxes. Having a family would be so great-full. The winter, summer, spring, and fall would be hard. All the allergies and sickness my body would have to get used to that. It would be hard even harsh and depressed.

If I was in Kek's situation I would have felt overwhelmed because I would not know how to do or use anything. I would also start to lose hope because everyone was saying that Kek's mother was dead. I cannot even imagine living in a new place without knowing anyone or anything. I would have been super scared if I was in Kek's position coming to a new place to live for the first time.

If i were Kek i would feel confused, tired, and kind of humorous. i would look at all the confusing objects and laugh, but simultaneously feel scared in such a cooler, unfamiliar world surrounding me. It must have been pretty hard to have to learn the language and get familiar with a lifestyle he wasn't used to. I would honestly HATE having to go through so many planes and destinations, i would be sick! but i would know its for the greater good.

# data[].attributes.body
If i was kek i would be exited but also scared because, i would be happy that i would go somewhere we're life was easier and better for me, but also i would be sad and scared because i have to move from my old home all the way to this new country with new people, new things, and everything would just be new i would just be afraid.

If I was Kek and I was in his situation now I would be kinda nervous because I don't know anybody and I would be scared because i'm not in my own country and the cows probably won't survive because they are in the snow and in my country Sudan they would survive and we honor cows and I don't think people will like me they think i'm weird.

If I had to be put in Kek's situation I could see myself being very overwhelmed and nervous. I get stressed going to a new grade much less move to a new country with no parents and no information about America! I really feel bad for Kek because he has such a traumatic past and he has to pretend like everything is perfectly fine. If I came to a new country not knowing any of there basics (such as light switches and money) I would be absolutely terrified.- Daphne Bess

If I were in Kek's position I would feel overwhelmed because my surroundings are so different, everything's different to what I know and love. But I would also feel determined, determined to make this new life work because there would be no going back to the life I once had.

If I was in Kek's situation I would feel very scared because my dad is dead and so is my brother and my mom is nowhere to be found. On the other hand, there is a lot more technology, but he is unsure how to use it. So, overall I think I would feel unsure and scared.

If I was in Kek's position, I would feel confused and unsure about what was happening. If you think about it, moving to a new country where we pretty much run on technology from originally being from a place where there is very little technology, it would be incredibly difficult and confusing.

I would feel very overwhelmed and confused because there is all this new technology and different ways of doing things. I would also feel very revealed that I was able to leave and go to a safer place.

# data[].attributes.body
If I were in Kek's situation I would be very anxious and scared because it's a very odd switch in weather and lifestyle. Life in Africa is a whole lot different to life in Minnesota, so the fact that Kek has to adapt to this environment is hard.

# data[].attributes.body
If I had just moved to America, I would be fascinated by all of the gadgets and technology around me. I think that I would also feel overwhelmed by it all, especially if I was like Kek and have never heard of most of it. I think I'd also want to see things from my home again, like how Kek really wanted to pet the cow.

first i would be over welled and be shocked. then i would freak out and run away. and then tem would be so different i would die to the cold.

If I were in Kek's situation I would be nervous because I would be heading to a place which has new things that might take a long time to adjust to and I would be a bit homesick because my family would be left behind.

If I was in Kek's situation, I would be grieving, scared, and maybe even a little lost. I moved to a entirely different continent and just witnessed my brother and father get murdered. I also would have to adapt to learning a new language and the cold.

# data[].attributes.body
If I was in Kek's situation, I would feel scared and confused, because I would have moved to a new country on a completely different continent, but after a little while, I would probably start to feel like I don't fit in with everyone else. Having to learn a new language, and adjust to the new customs would not be easy. I also think I would feel very lucky knowing that other people back in Sudan wouldn't get to come to America and experiencce everything that I have.
