The Circle Of My Life Essay

Decent Essays
The circle of my life When I was eight years old my parents told me, "get ready; we are planning to go to the U.S.A. From now on you will go to school there and have new friends there in the U.S.A." I said, “but what about my family like my grandparents and my uncles. Are they going to come with us?"
"No,” the said. “They are going to stay here and we will try to visit them here each summer break." It was a rough day hearing all of this from my parents. I was crying all day. I didn 't want to eat or sleep or even talk to my friends. After the days moved on, I thought that they forgot about traveling to the U.S.A. But after a while I saw my dad organizing the airplane tickets and the passports. I was like, "Dad, are we really going to the US?"

Leaving your family, friends, and your house is a rough thing because you are worried that you might not come back to your place and see the people that you know. When we went to the airport and we rode the plane, I was happy that I saw my family and my friends, but I was mad because I felt that it was going to be like my first time going to the U.S again. My family is my life. I will love them until the last moment of my

    It was the hardest thing I ever had to do. When I got on the plane, my dad held me and told me it was going to be okay and not to worry, so I took his word for it. My first impression getting off the plane and seeing the United States for the first time was like ‘WOW!’. Like the first impression of a kid who’s seeing Disneyland for the first time, and then they get there and they’re overwhelmed. It was great, and I had the biggest smile on my face and the thought of my mom and brother back in Haiti was distant in my…
