My name is My. I don't know what mean my name because so short, but I like my name. I born in VietNam, When I 1 - 15 years old I live VietNam and 15 - after time I live American. I never live in a refugee camp, because stop 1975. I will go school, school in American very different. I arrive in the U.S 2014 May, maybe 8 months ago. I like anything in U.S, because have beautiful places, and education very good in school.                                                                                                          

I really like anything about U.S, but only weather I never like I just like winter. First day I go school I scare, I don't know speak English, don't have friend same language, not happy. Really the teachers in U.S different the teachers my country, teachers my country good but sometime not good, fight student, and take care students little but I moves U.S I think teachers U.S very good person. I feel happy, really because I cant learn speak English, I go school I have new friends, new teachers. I parents they're like living U.S because my father he live long time, maybe 38 years old. And my mother she like but she miss family in my country, when they're move hard but they're funny because will better life. i would make my life better here is new idea, good job, speak good English and make something I want. other stories about coming to the U.S is I want study finish high school, I know I never study college because for me hard, maybe I study something I want and do for after my future. I really like U.S better for my self but I want live my country because I born my country I love that. I talk with my friend everyday, I talk too much with 4 peoples. My country not safe because a lot person don't have money, not good, person steal, they're don't have money maybe kill person take money the polices my country they're need money somebody don't care anything. In U.S I really feel safe but black people not good, I'm scare, the polices in U.S very good they're protection. I think freedom in U.S is don't fight person but sometimes, can do anything want. Me stay home everyday after school but I feel so funny, I just like go outside with my family, go school in U.S relax, funny. I like weather in U.S because I like cold, can my skin white but sometimes my nose hurt, I don't like summer very hot and my face have pimple, really. 

My dream is finish high school, if I can finish very good I save money because I want help my family and myself. I want open restaurant small or big I don't care, I like cook and job only myself.

Thanksgiving

This is the first time I made Thanksgiving in America. This is holiday on November 27,2014. This is holiday I want thank those that have sustain me for 16 years.

I want thank my family for everything, because I doing wrong they're excuse for me. Sometime I'm sad for something then also my family by my side. Especially my mother, a woman who makes all things possible for me the most. I used to make her cry because she did not hear, but now I want change everything I do not want my childishness that makes her sad. the pregnancy and nurture great. I love my mom and my family so much, I hope will be together forever.

 I thankful for all my teachers and my friends in Furness High School. Because they're take care about me, Education in school better, This is also a good time for me to learn it here, They always listen and guide what I do not know, And my friend very best, I talk with they're everyday about classwork, v..,v... I like everything about them.

                                                                         

Do you think it's important to learn about these types of moments in history, even if they happened far away and to people you don't know? Why or why not?

I think it is important. Because this is a very real economic events. The wall was initially built in the very long, but I do not understand why people bounced worth it. But  not particular about the history, but the history of our country has always been a platform to help us know about those who have sacrificed to save water we have today. I'm not good in school history whereas I like and want to know about the books stated victories, fighting the soldiers or the way of thinking strategies to win the battle country different. I think that.

The three my surprised

When I live in VietNamese the problem go to America make think a lot . Really, I don't want move America because I live in my country habit, I know everything of me change a lot. When my mom tell with me ' My family go to America ' I was so surprised. When I travel by plane over here and stand in the America I am very worried, I think ' I don't know speak English with when go to study school how do communication with teachers and my friends '. But everything change a lot of my ponder.
Now, I study Furness High School. Very good education America the teachers always take care all students, lesson from their instructors long but help students learn more about the event, of the reality that they have undergone want to impart to students. I so happy go study in America.
I go to America 6 months ago, on the weekend sometime I go outside with my family or my friends.I love this weather side. December,  January, February have snow I very very like snow look so nice. In America have different all country. Sometime also good or not good people. But have a lot people VietNamese, it makes I happy.
My surprised biggest is I have friends a lot, they're help me the practical difficulties, playing with them so funny, I do not believe have a lot best friend. I do not know say more in America is this, in my head have a lot about people in America, life, education, way of speaking, completely different from all of Vietnam that I thought. I started adapt to the environment here, I love here.
