How Has My Life Changed in
the United States?
By Nester Orozco
I was seventeen years old, studying in high school. One of my friends
was living in the United States. I
asked him to help me to come here.
He said he would help me and I left
high school.
Now I have lived here for six
years. My life has changed in many
ways. The United States is a country
where I found many opportunities for
myself. First, I started to learn English. This is a good option for me to
get a better job. I have more communication with people on the street or
any place. I have had many different
kinds of jobs. The one I am interested in and the one I am learning
about is engineering.
I‟m proud to live in the United
States. I‟m proud for what I have
been able to accomplish.
Thanksgiving
By Romeo Cabrera
I am grateful for the Thanksgiving Day. I‟m going to give thanks
to God for my great list, for my family and for my job. I‟m happy because
I‟m going to eat with my sister, my
cousins and my friends. We are going
to have a good Thanksgiving Day.
Maybe in the afternoon, I‟m going to
play soccer with my friends, or I‟m
going to go shopping with my sister.
That‟s going to be the way I‟m going
to spend my day.
I will have been living in this
country for eight years. When I
came, the Thanksgiving Day was the
first American holiday that I experienced. That was very good because I
did not celebrate it in my country.
