When
I left my country and come to the United States, I
had butterflies in my stomach. It was very hard for
me. It was a sad moment when I had to say good-bye
to my family and my friends. I didn't want to leave
my hometown because I grew up there and I had
memories.
I
was nervous because I was going to enter a new
place with new people and new customs. I couldn't
even understand their language. Everything was
different. I had nobody to talk with. I just had my
husband, and he was a new person for me too.
So,
thinking about all these changes made me nervous
and I worried about my new life. But that was a
decision I made myself. I had to continue and
accept the challenge.
