Chinese and We Became American
When did you immigrate to the United States?I came to the America on 8/16/2015.
How did you feel?When I came to the United States to New York's Long island, I felt very sad because I had no friends, I couldn’t speak English and my life was very bad. I couldn't find a job and make enough money. I had hay fever and was very uncomfortable, but saw a lot of churches which was very comforting.
What are some things you left behind?The United States is a country of freedom of belief. Our family can go to a beautiful church every Sunday and now I feel very peaceful. My children like it here because there is a big library and good schools with good teachers. Now my two children get a very good education and environment in the United States.
