I have had a long life. A lot of things have happened in my time. My grandchildren are soon to be born, therefore, I have chosen to write something for them. Something that will tell them a bit about who I was, in case my time is up before they arrive.
You know, when you’re young… when you are so young that you get scared of everything. That’s exactly how I feel right now. Everyone here has a smile on their face. It’s weird. People here in Ireland are usually a bit depressed. I’m pretty excited myself. That’s ok isn’t it, though? I feel like my head is going to burst open. My brothers are all pretty calm. Or, at least, they are calmer than me. I’ll wait for the ship patiently like everyone else. At least, I’ll try. There are some people here with really nice clothes. I might be better off sticking to those people. Nah I’ll stay with my brothers.
There it is, the ship. Am I ready to go? Maybe. No! Yes! I don’t know if I am ready. I’ll go. My brothers are boarding the ship. I have to go or I’ll fall behind. This ship is massive. Why is everyone so calm? I feel like I’m going to explode from anxiety. I’m 13, I shouldn’t have to go through this. Sheesh, what am I thinking. I’m on my way to America. The country of opportunities. I am going to live with my brothers without having to work every day and go hungry in bed.
