It's been interesting since I arrived in America. I settled in South Philadelphia because my uncle was there. I live with Mom, Dad, two sisters, two brothers and my brother in law. I work as a seamstress while in school. When I arrived in America, people were loud, talkative, personable and interesting. I used to think they treated everyone equally but now I realize they didn't.
When leaving my immigration station I saw my dad and sister waiting for me at the end. I heard laughter, tears and joy. I felt relieved it was over. To start my new life, I had to attend a new high school and learn English. Some challenges I faced were being bullied and facing prejudice.
When I got to my immigration station I saw police officers. I heard "Welcome to America!" I felt surprised how nice they were. To pass through, I had to scan fingerprints, take pictures and interview for three hours. It became difficult when the process felt neverending.
