COMING TO AMERICA/IMMIGRANTS

This topic is very interesting for me, especially because I am one of them.
The truth is even when a lot of Americans dislike us, mostly of us are good people, who come here with endless desires to progress, to succeed, to get a better status and at the same time to contribute with the economy and development of this wonderful country.

Besides, the hardest and sadder thing for us is to deal and see when people from here try to underestimate and mistreat us just for the simple fact to be LATINOS. When you first come here it is already a cultural shock and we have to add to it, the displeasure and apathy of many americans out there.

Even when I haven't had a personal experience about it yet, I hear about it very often, and I really think that they can't understand that we have rights and duties as they do, even when we weren't originally born in this country. It is more than unfair to have to wake up every morning always thinking who and when will we be rejected today?

By the way, not all the Americans think the same way about Latinos, many of them are cool and opend-minded to respect and accept minorities and foreign cultures without any kind of prejudice or hate feelings at all.

Hopefully this hostility toward us the Latinos could disappear or at least be minimized in the future to live in a better environment here in THE UNITED STATE OF AMERICA.

SNOW

I had been here in the United States since August 2006, an I had never seen snow at that time. I really thought that it would be the cutest thing ever, and it was, but just if you can see it falling down from your house's window or playing outside with it. After that, I think it is as scary as a horror movie, especially if you have to drive on it, and your car slides all over the icy ground like a skating figure.
I still remember that day as if it were yesterday and I still feel in a "BLIND ALLEY" like I felt in that moment when my car slid. It was and will continue being one of the scariest moments in my entire life.

My Dream

Since I was little I wanted to go to Disney World as well my daughter wishes to go now. Unfortunately my parents never could afford that trip. I never got mad at them or anything like that, but always I had the faith that I would visit the place and will be with my daughter which will make the experience the best ever.

One of the main reasons that I would like to visit that magical place is because I going to see for first time in my life real dolphins and I really love those animals. I think they are the most beautiful creatures of the world because they love people, they are friendly, kind and the best about them is that they may help you if you need them overseas.

Beside, I think that just the fact to be in Disney World is an amazing, outstanding and magical experience for anybody especially if it is the first time you got there.
