A Sad Day
I remember when I left my country; I was so sad. That day was one of saddest I ever had. I missed my grandparents, my friends and my relatives I left Mexico. I wish I could go back soon.
<br>
<br>It was may 20, 1995 when I went to my grandparents' home to see them for the last time. I was crying when I told them I am going to come here in the United States. As soon they heard what I just said; they both hugged me and began to cry with me. I was so sad that I couldn't get through the door to leave. I stayed with them for almost the whole night. Finally, when the time to leave was coming, I left them.
<br>
<br>My friends are so nice with me that it was so hard to tell them bye. They were sad as I was because we have to separate each other's. I missed them a lot. Specially, I missed them when I go to play soccer with my new friends that I made here. We used to play soccer in the "Plaza".
<br>
<br>I have so many relatives that are living in Mexico, and I really want to visit them.
<br>
<br>I hope I could go in Christmas. I remember how they got when I went to their home to say bye. They were a little bit upset with me because they said that I was leaving them alone.
<br>
<br>My relatives and I have such a good relationship. I love them a lot.
<br>
<br>The day May 20,1995, I wouldn't ever forget. This was one of the saddest days in whole life. I almost have five years that I haven't seen my friends, relatives, and grandparents. I want to be with them again as the old

    I grew up in Vietnam and accepted Vietnam education during my childhood. It was July 19, 2011 when my parents had the opportunity to come to America as immigrants. I have great appreciation for my grandparents and parents because they gave up everything to come to America. They did this to give their children a better life and education. I still remember the day that I left my country; it was a beautiful memory that I won’t ever forget. The plane took off at 5:00 am, so we had to arrive at the airport at 3:00 am. All of my family was there with us, we were hugging and crying. It took all my strength and courage to keep from crying that day; I had to control my feelings. I couldn’t cry because if I cried it would’ve been too hard to say goodbye. Finally, I couldn’t control my tears; they raced down…

    I was just ten when my parents told me that my dad got a new job and that we had to move from New York to Georgia. At that moment millions of thoughts rushed into my mind. I didn't want to move. I had a lot of friends and family here, I was on a little league team, everything is great here, and I didn't like the idea of leaving that all behind. I didn't even know where Georgia was. But I knew I had no choice, so that last day of school I said my goodbyes to my friends and teachers with sadness in my heart, knowing I wouldn't see them again next year. I got home, packed everything, and closed the door of the empty house. We drove thirteen hours to our new home. During those thirteen hours of sleeping and staring out the window, a mix of sadness…

    When we crossed the United States border into Texas, things seemed surreal. It did not feel like this was really happening. I remember staring at the road behind us, watching everything I knew disappear. We only stopped a few times on the drive. We did not eat at any restaurants; we ate chicken tacos Mom cooked at the rest stops. It took us almost two whole days.…

    While in the United States, I felt very safe as I always do but as soon as we crossed the border it was strange and I was always scared. The feeling of always being at home had left me because we were in a dangerous country. If you go to the Bahamas or some other place you will more than likely feel relaxed and at home but Mexico was and still is a very dangerous place.…

    I kept crying every day over stuff I’ve lost in my country, but my grandmother encouraged me to look for positive outcomes. We were safe now, away from all of those cartel members who were prosecuting us, and that have assaulted my dad (who was a police officer) several times, now I understand why Mom cried every time Dad called her in the midnight. I also had access to a better education. Since I had to pay for High School in my country, now being able to attend it for free in the U.S is something I’m very thankful of, in addition of a better economic…

    Mexico Personal Narrative

    At the age of two my parents made the long and devastating journey to bring me and my siblings to the United States from Mexico. They sought for a brighter and better future for us and fought tooth and nail to give us the world they didn’t have growing up. Ever since I had stepped foot on U.S soil I never had the chance to go back. The sacrifices that permitted me to be able to attend school for free and giving me a better head start than I would’ve had if we’d stayed couldn’t mask the effects of the move. I didn’t grow up being enriched by the colorful culture that Mexico has, I missed out on the opportunity to share moments with my family from abroad, and fought the struggle of trying to blend in, in an environment that was so different…

    I will remember that day as the day that I will use as an example of why the world needs to change. I remember that day as the moment I can remember to allow myself to cry. I will remember that day as the day I realized what the world had become. I will remember that day as the day I became angry at the world for allowing someone to do something of that sort. I will remember that day as the day I realized how hurt others must feel if I couldn't even hold myself together. I will remember that day as the day I took no pictures and didn’t write about my experience immediately after. I will remember that as the day that I took the harshness of reality in, and realized how much I yearned to change it. I will remember that day as the day that I felt more helpless than ever before. I will remember that day as the day that I sat in an empty car for ten minutes trying to control myself. I will remember that day as the day I will never forget. I will remember that day as the day that broke me, in order to make me. I will remember that day as the start of the story I will tell others when they ask why I am doing what I am doing. I will remember that day as the second most memorable day of my life, the second most emotionally painful day of my life. I will remember that day as the day I decided I will not let the world become worse than it is. I will remember that day…

    11th July 2011. I was currently at my friend’s house when my mum came and i had to leave. Do you know the feeling when something just doesn’t feel right and you know that something really bad is going to happen? Well I do. My mum came into the backyard when my friend and I were playing. I looked up at her and the expression on her face wasn’t very good. Looking into his eyes you could tell that something was wrong. I will never forget that moment when my Grandfather passed away.…

    I remember growing up i'd cry because I wouldn't want them to leave my side. They were like my best friends and it's really hard to see your best friends leave your side after all the fun you've had with them. It's so cool seeing them leave because you know they're doing it so they have a career one day but it's so hard you forget why they have to leave you. I went on my first roller coaster and i was scared to but i did it for Andres and Isa and let me tell you it was very thrilling!!! It's really strange knowing they are becoming adults because it seemed like yesterday they just ended freshmen…

To all my friends here tonight, thank you for everything; I hope we’ll continue our friendship for many more years to come.…

    A sad lonely day

    The water was quiet so quiet that I could hear the ripples in the water. I tried to skip rocks through the water, but all I could think about was you. How it was a very sad and lonely day. One day I thought about the trees and the flowers, but of course you'd pop up again. I always thought that life would be possible without you. The more I think about it; the more that dream seems to be impossible. I hate this life I live because school nor life could ever be as good as you were. You were the inspiration that kept me going in school that made me try and now that you're gone I don't know what to do with my life anymore. I hate the fact that I don't know this and all I really need help is with my History class, but that can't even seem to be close to being done since all you do now a days is ignore me.

    June-26-2005 would be the day I’d never forget. It started off as a normal day, completing work that I’ve missed, sleeping in English class, the usual. But on my way walking home, I felt like someone was watching me from behind. When I went to look who it was, someone grabbed me from behind and covered my mouth. The next thing you know, I was on my block.…
