Coming to the United States

I came to the U.S. in 1995 from Sudan. The reason I came there is to get a better life. I came here with my family. My trip was 18 hours. First I went to Holland and then to Las Vegas. I brought clothes and my Bible. I didn’t plan to come to the United States. On my first day in the U.S., I saw Christmas lights everywhere. On my first day in the U.S., I felt great. The best thing about living here is I can go to work and school. The worst thing about living here is we have to pay bill. I am homesick for my country and my family in my native country. I don’t miss the unfairness in my country. I wouldn’t like to go back to my country and live there. I like new life in the United States.
