648 Messi (Haiti, Age 14): English


My name is Messi. I come from Haiti. I have fourteen. I was born in Port-au-Prince on December 2000. In Haiti, I lived with my mother since childhood until she moves to the United States. After his trip, I went to live with my aunt who lived not far from the house. I loved my life in Haiti. In Haiti, I was in a school with a great reputation, St. Aloysius Gonzaga. I loved school, although teachers were not cool with students.After school, I went to play with my classmates on the school yard. After playing a few school basketball, I went home on foot. Last month in December, my father told me that we will go to the United States, I was very happy. Earlier this year, we took the plane to come to the United States. When I come, it was very cold I remember Haiti, my friends, my aunts, my father, in Haiti. I was afraid of the height of buildings due to the earthquake that took place on 12 January 2010. After a few weeks I felt more comfortable on the country. After three weeks, I went to school. The name of my school is international Lafayette High School is a great school. The first day I came, I felt strange to school. I did not understand anything that the teachers were saying. Now I better understand the same course if I do not speak English yet. When I arrived, I met xiaojun and chester and that made me a little help in the classroom. Now I want to speak English because I do not want to stay without understanding what people say, especially in the current. I would like to work as all other students.
