Personal Narrative: I Am Anyuta Kozhushok

I am Anyuta Kozhushok, and I was born in Ukraine. When I was 3 years old, my parents won a green card which allowed them to move to the U.S. and begin a better life. As soon as I came, I was put into a daycare which I despised and according to my parents, “cried my eyes out.” Then, a girl, Julie, noticed that I was miserable and played with me and helped me through my day and is now my best friend even after the many years that have passed. Many people would think that after that I went onto Elementary School which I did but not in the US. My parents thought we were going to return back to Ukraine sent me to live with my grandmother and go to 1st grade there and I enjoyed my time there. Then my parents the indecisive folks they have changed
their minds and decided not to move back meaning I would have to return and go to 2nd grade with people I didn’t know and didn't get to bond with the year before not to mention my forgetting of some English. Elementary school went by at a snap of a finger and I thought I would just move to my neighborhood middle school like the rest of the kids but that’s not what happened and I went to Masterman instead. Masterman has been a blast and I’ve really enjoyed the pace that teachers teach at and the amount of learning that I’ve done these past few years. I hope I enjoy any High School that I chose to go to as much as I enjoyed Masterman.
