    At first it was very difficult to adapt and everything was so strange for the “rich teen girl” as she had never lived before in such an ugly and poor district. Moreover, her big problem was with language. Because of that problem, children who lived in her new district — including Korean children (English-speaking Korean-American kids) who are settled in USA before her — excluded her from their activities.

    In the personal essay, “The Good Daughter” by Caroline Hwang, the author describes her incident with a Korean woman which made her question her own identity. Her parents came to America two years before she was born, so she knows only a little about her native Korean culture. Although she considers herself an American, deep down she also feels obligated to keep her Korean heritage. She uses rhetorical devices of ethos, logos and pathos throughout her essay to appeal to the readers about her situation where she believes she is torn between her and her parent’s dream.…

    A second main point is that immigration is meant to be the great equalizer, yet it is not easy to eradicate the divisions of the old country. She recalled at 13, is an acute awareness of the distance between her and her fellow F.O.B.’s, and another, more palpable one between those of them in E.S.L and the occasional English- speaking Korean- American kids, who avoided them though they brought them certain undefined shame. The supporting details is that years later she learned that they were, in fact separated from them by generations. Those that sat in in huddle in that E.S.L class grew up to represent the so called 1.5 generation. Many of them came to America in their teens, already rooted in Korean ways and languages.…

    As a minority, immigrating from Korea to a wildly different country like the United States has been the most influential decision that my family made to live the possibility of the "American Dream". Moreover, growing up as an Asian-American wasn’t simple; I was faced with the challenge of malicious racial slurs, spiteful judgment, and condemnation. However, through these criticism, I’ve grown to understand that our response to those judgements is what builds character in which has made me more transparent, vulnerable, and empathetic.…

    Youth, rebellion, recklessness – three words that describe the teenage years of an angst-ridden American-Born-Chinese. Growing up, I had some sense of what was supposed to be important in life: politics, news, history, religion, family, math… it all sounded good—kind of like how communism sounded good—and that was exactly how I treated those subjects, with the utmost disobedience. Being born into a Discourse, as John Paul Gee puts, “…involve a set of values and viewpoints in terms of which one must speak and act” (Literacy, Discourse, and Linguistics, 538).

It would take me years to begin to realize just how stubborn I had been. I acquired, through being part of many discourses that, eventually, everything connects.…
