In life everyone has heard words that just stick with them. The words that make you think twice about how you feel about certain situations.

First of all‚ there were many reasons I did not want to relocate. For example‚ I loved the weather in Seattle‚ and all of my friends were there. One main reason‚ I did not want

The moment when you were first born is important. The moment when you first go to school is important. Many things happened to us in the past ‚ but we only remember it vividly‚ probably because it’s not that essential so we’re not bothered by it. However‚ we will remember our watermarks forever even if we’re growing older by the days because it makes us who we are. Different people have their own different lives to live‚ so of course everyone’s story is not the same. As for me‚ the one watermark

Growing up‚ I experienced life in a certain way and a certain environment that forced me to adapt to that lifestyle at a young age. It made me realize that my perspective on life isn’t the same compared to others. Ten years ago‚ my family and I lived together in New York for about a year before my brothers had to move to our home country‚ Nepal. Throughout those years I learned to live as an independent and closed girl‚ however‚ at the age of fourteen‚ my siblings reappeared back into my life. From

Things were not always as easy as it is right now. I remember having to live in a confined one bedroom apartment with my mother‚ siblings‚ and grandparents. My father and mother were separated for a period due to immigration policy. My mother decided to move to America with her side of family to give her children better life and education. Although my dad sent over money‚ it was never enough for the family. Seeing my mother struggle with money‚ it made me want to do everything I can to give them

The first city I lived in when I moved to America was an island. Mackinac Island attracted people from various parts of the country every year; usually in the summer. I heard people talking about how they needed a break from their heavily packed schedules‚ and time away was just what they needed. Travelling is a major part of some people’s life; as a matter of fact‚ one lady told me that if travelling were free‚ I’d never see her again‚ but living right above me is my neighbor who wouldn’t travel

Imagine being seven and in a foreign country seeing all types of new things. This is what I experienced when I went to Yemen in 2007. It was a world different from my own‚ but little did I know it would change my life. Seeing things from a different perspective really does change your view on the world. Learning to understand that not everyone sees things the same way you do can be difficult sometimes‚ but definitely not impossible.

The first place I would pick to move to is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Everyone forgets about this part of Michigan‚ half of the time it isn’t on the weather maps on the news. I think it would still be hard because I would have to pick up my life and transfer it to another world. At this point I understand that I would have to give up the luxuries I love so much. I would keep my phone but I cannot take my entire bedroom‚ my car‚ or my school with me. I know a lot of my family would stay put

In the wake of the Vietnam war‚ economic hardship runs rampant in communities with run-down neighborhoods and disheveled street beggars.
