Moving To Canada Summary

Over time Katherine got more used to the idea of female circumcision because it was just apart of the Malian’s culture. She explained that it involved the removal of the clitoris and the removal of the hood of the clitoris. After they removed the labia majora they would then stitch the edges together in order to prevent the women from having sex. Once the women were married they would be cut back open, allowing the husband sexual intercourse. Katherine made sure to ask plenty of questions so that she would fully understand their culture and why they did this terrifying act. She spoke to her good friend Agnes and told her about our customs here in the United States, and how the boy is usually circumcised, not the girl! Agnes was shocked that Katherine wasn’t circumcised and couldn’t believe her husband still wanted to marry her knowing that. Katherine tried to make trade to show Agnes her uncircumcised vagina, if Agnes would show Katherine her circumcised one. Agnes just tumbled over with laughter and Katherine’s curiosity was left to her imagination! I believe her understanding attitude toward their cultures customs were taken like a true anthropologist. Although it was hard for Katherine to see young girls in such pain she understood there was nothing she could do and she accepted their traditions.

It all started when we first got to the hotel, in Ontario, Mississauga. My father thought it would be a great idea to explore the area and buy some groceries. My mom, two brothers and I were exhausted due to a fourteen-hour flight from Dubai to Toronto so we decided to stay and take a nap. I woke up at 7 pm to silence. I thought my dad had come back and took a nap, but when I went to wake up parents, it was only my mother. At that point, I started freaking out, it’s been 4 hours since my father left. I woke up my mother and told her my dad hadn’t come back yet. My mother tried to call my father, but his phone was off. She then went to the security of the building and talked to him. The security guard asked my mother

Going to Canada! I had only been out of the country twice, each time just to vacation and visit family in the Philippines where both my parents are from. I had always imagined what life would be like outside of Kuwait, and now it was finally going to be real. My 15-year old self was devastated - We were leaving the only home I had known for 15 years. It did not take long for my sisters’ excitement to die when we realized that we would be leaving our friends and everything we’ve ever known and not returning for a long time. Life in Kuwait for 15 years was comfortable and we were more than financially stable.

My road map was something I especially worked hard on. My road map had 10 great and not so great things on it. Each stop meant something but there were a lot more stops that should have been added. The stops were usually a break from reality. The purpose of my road map is to remind me of my mental health. A mental illness is a change in someone’s behavior, thinking or feelings. Mental illness can affect the dignity of the human person. Which means everyone’s life is sacred and created in the image of god; therefore each life has a tremendous worth and value.

When I came here in Canada from India in grade 7, I had problems with my English-speaking skills and writing skills because in India they do not really focus on English. But over here the expectations for English are different. All the other courses were coming great for me but my main weakness was English and because of that I had been bullied of my English skills get judged by a lot of people etc.… I started to become afraid and depressed of going to school, but only thing that motivated me from going to school were the people (specially my teachers who motivated me) around me and my marks that I get in other courses.
