         <description><![CDATA[<div> Trixie</div><div>On November 29<sup>th</sup>, when I came here, the weather was very cold and the feeling of the rain was just happy and happy for me to go to the world’s sad country for being away from home in Vietnam friend. Everything around me was very different compare to Vietnam like the weather and the people around me as well. The time I walked out the airport, it felt like a completely different world for me. <br><br></div><div>The first time when I moved from Vietnam to United State was a moment that I cannot forget because it was a beginning of the future and everything would be good in the future but what we have now is facing difficulties. For example, language and everything in the United State is so far away from Vietnam that it feels like I was born again and must learn everything from the beginning, to the one month after I was born started school. Also, getting use to the new environment was very hard for me because I have to make new friend and learn how to adapt to the school environment here. <br><br></div><div>The school is very large and everything is very strange. The atmosphere here is very clean and there is no smoke. The people here are very civilized. Especially studying in the United State without paying for tuition is free. And I will do my best to achieve my dream of going to college and then finding a job to earn a lot of money to be worthy of what I’ve been through. I know it’s very hard for me to catch up with school over here especially I am brand new to United State and English is my second language but I will work as hard as I can top overcome any obstacle that will stop me from reaching my dream so I can make my parent proud. <br><br></div><div> <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Juan Portillo<br><br>First Day In Baseball<br><br><br>My first day playing baseball was fantastic, I feel very good about myself, I felt something fantastic every time I hit the ball, when I ran around the bases I thought it was a flash, even if it was not like that, I made friends that day they give you life, today they are my brothers who will not turn their backs on me, I remember very well how I met them, I was very sad and I felt sorry to talk with people I did not know, I got a child, was the same size as me, He said hello, I responded with the same thing, he told me that it's not worth talking to me from now on we're friends, right? I answered, of course we are friends and we began to talk and talk in total we talked too much practice and we continue talking, he asked me if I had ever played baseball because I did very well, I told him that it was not the first time, We said goodbye and I went home.<br><br><br> I got tired, I met a coach, I was very strict and I got angry, when I got home I felt very happy, because this sport gave me a friendship and for what I enjoyed playing and that was the first day.<br><br><br></div><div><br><br><br><br> </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Fatxi Ahmed<br>When I Left My Country<br>I remember when I left my country, I was fifteen years old. It was sad moment. I had to leave all the people I care about, especially my nephews and my nieces. When I told them, I would leave my heart, they didn’t believe me. They never thought I would leave them, I didn’t believe it either. I told them we would talk each other every day on the internet. I will be back, and we will meet again one day. I had already missed them when I was said that.<br>In 2015, my sisters and I left Somali. &nbsp; We were sad and happy too; sad because we were leaving our country and happy to begin the journey to meet our mom. It was first time I would travel.&nbsp;<br>I was afraid to travel on airplane. But luckily, my older sister had traveled before on airplane. she told me it’s easy don’t afraid it not scary to travel on airplane, it just like car don’t afraid my little sister. That time I told myself it will be easy to travel on airplane. But the Thursday morning I was going to airport, I couldn’t lift my legs.&nbsp; The road was busy and there was a lot of traffic. We arrived at the airport at 9:00 AM we ate the breakfast there. Then they check our bag we went to the waiting area. I felt stomachache when I went there, I looked my sister’s face she was crying and hiding her face, I asked what happen sister?<br>“I missed you so much I didn’t believe you leaving,” Hawa said. she made me cry too. And I said I missed too we will see again my lovely sister.<br>My sister told me have nice and safe trip, call me when you got there, I will pray for you.<br>“I love you sister”<br>Love you more.<br>	 our airplane arrived. We hugged each other tightly and waved hands said good bye. Then we flew Adan Ade airport, I was sitting next to the window. I didn’t know how to wear seatbelt; a man sits next to me helped me to wear it he understand I was frightening.<br>The someday we arrived Jomo Kenyatta airport I was transit there we stay like one hour we bought some water and pray there. Then we went to the Kampala I don’t remember the airport. Finally, we arrived our destination.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>First Day of School in the USA</strong>&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><br>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;I entered this new school last year in the month of October when I arrived in this new country, at first I was nervous to know that I was going to have new friends and also for the new school that is much bigger than the school where I studied in my school. country. Little by little I got used to everything new that I discovered in this school, I made new friendships and I am learning the language so that I can understand and participate in classes. Nowadays I am completely delighted with my new school and I like everything we have and can do as the activities they do and all the classes that are well entertained.&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>This school is great, it is much bigger and better than my previous schools. I still do not get used to everything I have to do, but the important thing is that soon everything will change because very soon I will know the language very well since the language is what affects me in my grades and in my classes. Even so, knowing the language very little I have several friends as well as those who speak Spanish as well as those who do not, I have great friendships nowadays and they are all very good friends.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Cristhyan Marquez.<br><br>With the passage of time I have learned many things and I have also forgotten some because life is a school because you never stop learning and good and bad things never stop happening, but in this time the most important things are the good things although we must be strong to withstand the bad. When I started to be a big boy with knowledge I started to realize everything that was happening with my family, with my family had many problems that I have no idea because they could happen but now things are already and nothing can be done about it now only trust in God that everything will be fine and that the sufferings someday will happen, I know that my uncle, aunt, cousin, cousin are no longer and that nothing will revive them but in life there is to be strong, today I feel better because I am here and I feel safe I stay away from those problems for that reason I feel good and with the new language that I am learning is something important that I always imagine in my life and now it is toy achieving.<br>I am happy.</div>]]></description>

My favorite activities are reading, writing, drawing, and listening to music.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; When I was young, I wanted to visit America. My greatest wish was to live there. I knew America was a country of freedom, security and stability. I was born in 1999. There was no war and fighting in my own country. In 2003, the war started in my country I was 4 years old.&nbsp; One day I was sitting with my family in the living room after the lunch. I told my father, "I want to go to the United States". My father said "Okay, we can ask your sister in Turkey about that". My mother said "Yes, your sister already has a case number with the United Nation, and she can add you to her case". Then we went to Turkish Airways office in Baghdad and booked three tickets.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; I went to Turkey and saw my sister. We went to Ankara for adding me to the case. We did many interviews, and we were waiting for a long time to have their proved for our case. One day in the morning the UN called my sister and told her to bring our passports. My sister was very happy and told us "We will fly to USA soon, they called me and told me to bring our passports, they will book our flight to Washington Seattle".<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; In 2016 I came to America to feel safe. Â I saw peace here not the sadness and the ravages of the war. In Iraq there was no freedom of expression, I am very surprised to see there is no difference between race, religion or doctrine here. I practice my freedom naturally and no one interferes in it. We have many customs and traditions in America, but in Iraq we lived by a tribal custom. I look forward to the future living here, I go to the school every day to learn English. Â I want to be active and helpful person here in my community and the society.</div><div><br></div>]]></description>
