A very important event in my life would have to
A very important event in my life would have to be the death of my grandmother.
She was so awesome. I will miss her forever. My grandmother is a great role model for Me. Over the years it's gotten easier talk about her death.
My grandmother was a nice Portuguese lady. She lived in Portugal until she moved to the States with her nine children From there she lived in New Bedford until the year of 2000.I learned a great deal of Portuguese from her because she didn't speak any English. The Death of my grandmother was so hard for me because she was the first person really close to me to die. Before that I had never been to a funeral or a wake, so it was the first for a lot of things. At the time I was twelve years old, and new to Freetown so it felt like everything was changing in my life.
In the years 2000 my family moved from New Bedford to Freetown. For me it was a big change. There was a new school, friends, and house. When we moved my vava as I called her moved in with us. I liked my vava living with my family because it helped me learn Portuguese. Her moving in gave me someone to spend time with I didn't know anyone yet. It had it bad sides too. She was really old fashion so I didn't have a lot of privacy. She would go in my room and clean everything. It was hard to find all my stuff.
That spring would be the spring she died. I remember it like it was yesterday. I had the best day at school. I was laughing and having fun all day. When I was walking home I noticed that both of my parents were home. That was weird because whenever I come home from school I'm home alone. I just figured that they both had the day off. I went inside to change my clothes to play basketball. On my way out my dad stopped me, and told me to sit down. At that moment I know something was up. Then he told me that my vava passed away early in the morning. I wait right into shock. I remember leaving my after I heard the news, and sitting in woods for a few years trying to figure out why
