Personal Narrative: Living In America

125 Words1 Page

Riding a roller coaster? Watching horror movies? Killing bugs as a no big deal? Oh, no. Not me. I have never enjoyed the thrill of roller coasters; I am unwilling to watch any violent movies as I know I will have nightmares; and, what if those bugs I killed would chase me down at some point of my life? I am the most scaredy-cat you could ever meet, but interestingly, I had the guts to leave my parents and study in the States for five years. I understood I would be alone in a foreign country, but that did not bother me. Actually, living in America has been the most blessing and unique experience for me, and I am excited to adventure a bigger world.
