Francis had to experience many different things when moving to America. Any person from another country that speaks a different language would have trouble in a new place. I am going to tell you about the changes you have to make to come in a different placed. The hardest thing to get used to is the language; everything is more difficult when you don’t know the language. Even to get a job is harder you might not know what your boss is asking and get fired.
Let me just start off by saying I really miss you guys and home. To be honest I really want to come home America is werid, too werid. Did you know that the food servers here expect you to give them extra money if they did a "good job" and if you don 't they look at you funny. Walking around the streets is nightmare because of there 's this thing called jaywalikng where if you wanna cross the road you have to wait for a light to tell you to go even if there 's no cars. Driving is no better people are so rude on the road you 'd think they 're gonna kill you..
The flood of immigration in the early 1900s created a country where cultures from around the world were being blended with americanization. Jewish and Italian immigrant women in the late nineteenth century moved to New York, and practiced cultural coalescence in their transition to America. Cultural coalescence is taking multiple cultures and blending them together into one. This blending includes keeping old traditions, creating new tradition, and a mixture of new and old. These women learned how to blend their old traditions in Europe with new traditions in America.

At the age of____, I left everything behind in Armenia and migrated into the United States of America to start a new life. Even though I love my paternal land and do not forget where I come from, the fact that I could pursue a career and become a productive member of the society encouraged me to move to America. To my great misfortune, I was persecuted for being politically active in my own country and I could no longer fight with the authorities for violating my civil rights. I had the potential of facing more dangerous situations than I was already in at the time. I am my parent’s first child
When I was six years old, living in Ethiopia, my dad won an American green card visa lottery among 53,000 people. Although it was exciting news, family members were discouraged because my dad could not afford the visa processing and traveling expense. However, he found a sponsor in Seattle, which allowed him to settle in America. As soon as he found a good house and a stable job, he started the process for me and my family. Multiple errors and obstacles delayed our processing for five years.
Many people are raised up by the idea that the society they live in always needs more adjustment, and other people around them are not always friendly. I am also one of those people. Since I was little, I was taught by my father not to trust anyone around, and not to pay too much effort into any kind of relationship. Even though I might not necessarily agree with him, I still followed his advice for years. However, I always ended up feeling lonely and depressed.
Even so, along with the questions came dread about living in an unfamiliar country. For instance, my mom worried her inability to speak English would hinder her new life’s development. My mom and grandparents also stressed, specifically, about the difficulties of adjusting to American culture. This included new food, customs, people and landscapes. Despite that, what occupied my mom the most was my grandma.
I can never have my father’s smile or my mother’s eyes, and my skin tone will never match their pale skin, even though I am their daughter. My parents’ DNA cannot be traced in my body nor my siblings’. Growing up in this family has given me a future I would never have had if I were not adopted. At the age 10, I saw the world from another perspective when my family and I embarked on a journey to adopt my younger sister. Traveling back to my birth country shaped me into the person I am today because I have become open-minded through having a better understanding of privileges and values.
The first eight years of my life, I spent in India where I was born. Growing up I was constantly reminded by my parents that I needed to make them proud by getting a good job and living a good lifestyle. They told me this because they did not want to see me live a hard life like they did. When I was nine years old, I moved from India to the United States of America. The reason why I moved to America was not because I was living a bad life in India, it was so that I could have a better education and more opportunities in life.
Living in America, is one of the easiest ways of living in the eyes of those less fortunate than us. In this land, we posses great medical care, education, jobs, more than enough food, and ecpecially freedom and equality. The reality lies within the lines marking this territory. America is not a free land, it is a country mostly dominated by white male political figures. With all of the great things in our country, freedom and equality must come next.
With everyone now aboard the cruise ship, I can’t even hear myself think! The sound of adults and children overwhelmed with excitement and bursting with laughter fills the sea air. “We’ll be departing for the Caribbean islands shortly,” exclaims Captain George Johnson. This is my cue to start making way to my compact yet cozy room to unpack my belongings for my ten day trip.
We all know that different countries have extreme lifestyle and cultures, but the intensity of this issue is realized only when the person must live in a new county all by themselves away from the comfort of the family, friends and their comfort zone as Asians are a close-knit group with their friends and families. No amount of exposure of the new country will absolutely prepare a person to live without any unexpected struggle. “Psychological maladjustment may surface due to such factors as unfamiliar societal customs (Chapdelaine & Alexitch, 2004), language barriers (Mori, 2000), and lack of previous close contact with a social support system and kinship bonds (Abe & Zane, 1990).” International students are expected to build their life from scratch once they are in a new country, this deals with making friends, finding a comfortable environment to stay. Even managing petty things on their own like buying grocery, figuring out the public transport, familiarizing with the area takes time to get used to.
Living in America means; I have opportunity, freedom, and respect, which are my rights. Living in America. I can read. Write. Growing up in America, I’ve been blessed to have all the things I have, all the opportunities given.
Moving to a new country can be difficult sometimes. Leaving all my relatives and friends back home was the saddest thing for me. My mother told me that we were moving to a new country. At first, I thought my mother was joking about it. but little did I know that she was telling the truth.
