When i came to USA
When I came to USA

As it was 2005 I was very excited to arrive in Abroad for the first time and I was extremely glad because I arrived in one of my favorite countries. For me USA was a wide place of opportunities where I had an open hand to compose an exceptional future. I was glad and a little sad too because I assumed it kind of delicate compromise to leave all my relatives behind in my country and come here but the race of life make man learn and adjust in.

As I arrived the JFK airport New York I was very delighted and speechless to explain my happiness, it took me a little late for the first time at immigration but as I departed from immigration and my father was there to pick me up in the pickup zone as I saw my father after a long period of time I was glad to meet him and speechless too as my father had changed and accommodated within the society. I was very happy to see my new home I had my new bedroom as I saw new toys about whom I have never imagined about and bigger stores everywhere around and we were facilitated with all new advanced stuff of that time e.g. faster internet, New and better computer, at last I got my own personal Smartphone to keep and I had my own video game and a remote control car, that was more then what I use to dream about, that was much more then my prospects.

    My story beings like any other, at the moment I took my first breath on July 30th 1998 in Bilisht, Albania. I was born in a small town in the lower region of Albania where my entire family lived with my grandparents under one household. My parents soon came to the realization that the current living situation was incongruous for a new family, such as ours, to thrive. As the result, my parents chose to apply for the government program granting our family access to move into a completely new society with new laws, regulations, political aspects and that was tens of thousands of miles away. Our family, at that instant, had a struck of luck as my mother’s name was drawn for us to move to the greatest country the United States of America.…

    People always say that living in a large city is a great quality, they like it because it let them get a lot of benefits; in my opinion, every place has its drawbacks; there is no perfect place that we can say: “It is formidable”. In the other hand, they are people who hate living in a large city, and they prefer the small one. As far as I live in Raleigh, I do not like it due to three reasons: change of weather, few means of transportation, and quiet life.…

    Coming to America

    It was a tough decision to make. It meant I had to leave my homeland and my family, friends at that point and go to a far-away place. I must adjust to that alien environment. My parents were worried about my future, but I still thought life was wonderful and the world was big. It is challenging to come to a different country when a person has lived a great part of their life in a different country. In hometown there is a sense of community amongst the neighbors but there is sense of epiphany moving to a city, realizing that all the millions of people who live there are strangers, and that one coming from a different country can never trust just anyone.…

    The best trip ever

    It was March 15, 1997. The time too early to remember. What was clear however, was the fact that I was soon going to be on my own in a country where I did not know the language or the people that I would be meeting there and staying with. The adrenaline rushed through me as I packed the last of my things and ran out of the door. I closed the door to my house and jumped in the car. The idea of leaving America and going to Japan seemed to really not have hit me yet, but now that I look back I know that I had to feel it. I think that the things that I was feeling was such a blob of mixed emotions that I really did not know how to feel so I will just say that I was excited. At the airport I met my best friend and two other friends of mine from school. We would all be traveling together, most all the time. The only things that would really be different would be where we lived and who we would live with. As the flight, Northwest number 69 to Detroit was called I could hardly wait and I jumped up, not being able to wait to board. We needed to travel to Detroit to get our connection flight to Osaka, Kansai International Airport. As soon as the plane took off it landed. Detroit was a very quick flight, only about an hour. Being a little nervous about not having enough time to make our flight I urged everyone to hurry along and to try and walk fast so that we could make our connection. Little did I know to my surprise after literally storming through the airport, the flight was delayed. Well that was okay, because we had three hours to do whatever we wanted, just the four of us in the Detroit Airport. Well we shopped, and we ate lunch. After a considerable amount of time, we boarded the plane, and off to Japan we went. I think that I knew how much trouble I was in when I heard four different meals, and five movie choices come across the loud speaker. The estimated flying time from Detroit to Osaka was about thirteen and one half hours. No big deal. I love sleeping really I…
