Teen Immigrants

Teens who move to different countries have a lot of difficulties. An example is having a whole new culture. Like trying to keep your culture while everyone else around you has a completely different one. Also, language. If you speak a different language than the country you moved to, there's no way to communicate unless you learn the language. Those are some difficulties they would encounter.

Children of the River

So far, I like Children of the River. A question I have is: In the beginning when Sundara was on the boat with the family, was that a flashback? Another question I have was what happened to the baby that Sundara was trying to save? And also, what grade and how old is Sundara? Those are some question I have about Children of the River.

Holiday

If I were to invent a holiday, I would invent Daughter;s Day. I would do this because there is a Mother's Day and Father's day but no Daughter's Day. There should be one for Daughters where you can get appreciated. Presents are always nice, too. (: Daughter's Day should be a real holiday.

Graduation

I would like to go to college after high school. To achieve this, I need to study more. I usually don't study for quizzes and stuff. I also need to put more effort into some things. Sometimes, I don't try very hard on some assignments. These are a couple things I need to do to achieve my goal.

We should go home early.

We should go home early because it is snowing really really bad. So, before it gets even worse, we should be able to go home. And also, I have to pee really really really bad and I don't like public bathrooms. So we should all be able to go home for these reasons.

American Culture

There are some things you should know about American culture. People are sarcastic a lot. For example, if someone says "I'm going to kill you," they are most likely joking around and won't actually kill you. Another thing is that you can dress whatever way you want. But if you dress like a pirate or something, people will stare at you. These are a couple things that a foreign exchange student should know about American Culture.

Lobster

I don't think that they should go for the Sustainable Label. I think this because it was based on a company not from around here. It would change the culture because the lobster is a part of Maine culture. We've been fishing for lobster for many years. So, I think they shouldn't go for the sustainable label.
