I arrived in the USA, from Mexico 2 months ago. I decided to study in the USA for better opportunities in the future. I’m a junior in high school, and I want to major in physics after high school. I speak fluently in Spanish and can speak English very well.
I decided to move to South Carolina for the year, to try it out and see if the USA was for me since it had been my dream ever since I was small. I met my host family, an average American family with a big stereotypical house, 2 dogs and a daughter and son, both younger than me.
At first, I was very homesick, missing my family and pals back in Mexico and was very nervous for the first day.
The first day I tried to make myself look as presentable as possible, my goal was to at least make some friends or acquaintances.
The host family mother drove me to the school and the moment that I went out of the car door I was in disbelief, how everything was completely different in comparison to Mexico. I was going ecstatic inside of myself.
I slowly adapted to the USA, getting all sorts of visions for my future, and ideas that I wanted to pursue. But, one thing did annoy me of sorts. My first day everyone was interested in me, asking me all sorts of questions about my home country, asking me to sit at lunch with them, asking if they could show me around the school. I thought I had made friends, I thought, and I believed they were going to be around for a long time. I liked my new school and all the teachers.
