                                               The life of Lucky

      My name is Lucky. I am 15 years old. I came from China. China terrain west to east, 67% mountains, plateaus and hills about land area. Mountains mostly a thing and northeast to southwest, mainly Altai, Tianshan, Kunlun, Karakoram, Himalayas, YIM, the Qinling Mountains, the Taihang Mountains, Wuyishan, Taiwan mountains and Hengduan Mountains Hill. In the ast land of China, there are majestic plateau , rolling mountains vast plains, low and hills, the size of the middle flat basin. I live in Guangdong in China. Guangdong province, the “Guangdong’, the provincial capital of a Guangzhou, the southern tip of the chinese mainland coastal province, located south of naling. Guangdong traffic cantonese, so i speak cantonese too.

        I live in China with my family. There are my Dad, my Mom , my brother and my grandparents. But my grandpa death at the past. I feel sad. My house is in a town. The town’s name is Doushan. There is where i was born. I live on the first floor at home. the outside are roads, although very quiet and very comfortable. Of course, occasionally raising some plants and small animals, but no one will live for a week. The most convenient is not far from school, so i can sleep a few minutes. But i don’t like the school.

        In my almost 12 years of age are attending junior high school. The junior high school logo is the camel, meaning that in the distant desert camel walking stick still hard working. At that time i chose this school. After i discovered that in this school and not so good. Almost every morning, beginning 7:00 classes, 3 meals a day is not free, but also on duty free times. The most annoying is going there every night, and always 21:00 to go home was very dangerous. Not enough sleep 8 hours a day, tired of sleeping in class, so i also lost a lot of knowledge. I hear the cries of the next class dreary day, but gradually got used to listen to, often see boys in a fight, though for some trivial quarrel. The school would like to have a step by step carefully graduated, that’s where it stayed for a year. Then 13 years old, i suddenly heard a message. Although it is not not know if this is good news or bad news, suddenly relieved.

        When i heard the news we are going to the United States, the first person i do not trust most is my grandmother. Grandma knew after this incident still face a smile, she said the words:“bon voyage”. I know her heart must feel sad, because it is kinship, devotion. Finally, i could not bear that grew up with friends. When i was ready to go, they are still filled with a smiling face to say goodbye to me and blessing me. When we got to sit, i look back, it seems that what to expect, knowing that impossible, but in exchange for a grandmother and friends crying. At that time my heart really hurts, and started to cry , but i can’t cry ,because they do not want me to cry. So we went to Guangzhou by airplane to Hongkong.

        When we take a plane to Hong kong. Suddenly i felt thirsty and went to the airport to buy a bottle of water inside. Inconceivable that even a bottle of water to give 20 yuan, it was expensive, since i no longer dare to go to the airport to buy water. Then the time came, we got on the plane. Think of airplane food is so unpalatable, and the aircraft has been super loud noise. Also sometimes fly aircraft flying under under moment, is not stable, causing me all night, also on the plane i got the fever. While spit on the plane, but also because there are flight attendants to take care of, then much better. Flight attendants are always with a smile in front of everyone said, “Do you need help?” and make me feel good. Then we got off the plane to New York, it felt very cold outside. My aunt said“The United States was colder than China,” And then we went to the Brooklyn by car. My new life was starting.

          Now, I live in Brooklyn. Brooklyn is one of the five boroughs of the New York State’s most populous country. Located in the southeastern part of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens east. I came to the John.J.Person junior high school in 8 grade. Initially started my English is not good, but almost the whole class are chinese, we help each other, complete with life is not the same as before. Although the read only half a year, all the school left me a deep impression. Then i do not know why chose a high school and can be said to be no reason   -   International high school at Laffect. Just transferred to the school like want to change the time, then a long time to slowly adapt.I  also liked the school, I believe I will be able to get good grades at this school.

       The life to be continued ……
