Personal Narrative: My Trip To Washington

Everyone has a favorite memory about their lives. My favorite memory took place when I traveled to Ohio in 2014 for Thanksgiving.

Have you ever been to Atlanta,Georgia before?The time i went to Atlanta,Georgia was month I have ever had. I got to hangout with my cousins,family,and friends. We had so much fun with them because we did something so much fun.We went to Atlanta,Georgia to go visit people.

Studying in a foreign country is an interesting experience of an individual lifetime. One tends to learn a number of things relating to ways of life in a foreign land. Social, political and economic values and aspects are usually different from one region to another. Therefore, through studying abroad one is able to learn different issues about another society such as gender and sexuality issues, social class and race/ethnicity issues. Having come from a developing country studying in the U.S.A has been a great experience personally. This paper will attempt to provide a reflection of my personal experience on studying in the U.S by comparing the history of Angola and the U.S.

Growing up in Ghana, I had heard a lot of things about the U.S. This was a country I had always wanted to visit; my prayer was answered when I got the opportunity to travel there. Arriving in a new environment came with many experiences. Adjusting with food, language and the weather was not easy. With the passage of time, however I have been able to0 adjust and fit it. This write-up therefore is to elaborate on my experiences since coming to U.S.

This summer I went to Maryland for the first time and met my family that is over there.

My mother was born in Tijuana, Mexico and my father was born in Zacatecas, Mexico. My parents worked very hard to come to the United States, looking for the American dream. They are dedicated to their family and want the best for their children. My parents have not stopped working, always trying to arrange their work schedule with my two siblings and I school schedules. They taught us that the only way to go forward is to work, to put all our best efforts in everything we want to accomplish in life. My father always tells me “exhale ganas,” meaning always do your best, to do what you are doing with feeling. Since the day they dropped me off at the college dorms I knew

I thought today would be just another normal day in chilled Maryland, but oh could I have been more wrong. The day started out just like every other. My little eleven-year-old heart was full of jubilance. I was having an admirable day with all my friends, and I had no worries. None of my siblings knew that an event that night at dinner was about to change our lives for better or for worse. My family and I sat down at aged table and we could all feel the tension that surrounded the air. “We have something to tell you guys, and we don’t want you to get upset” declared my mother. This statement made me nervous. Anytime some says not to get upset, you know something has happened that is going to change your entire live. “We are moving

Anyone who has the desire to live in the Unites States of America knows that it is the greatest nation among all nations. People either have little knowledge of other countries to believe this general notion or have truly seen and been informed of the opportunal prosperity that exists in the spirit of America. The American Dream is the idea that sets the minds of people determined to be part of a great nation because everyone has the equal opportunity to become successful and prosperous, if you work hard enough to achieve it. The American Dream is the reason why so many people come to the United States in search for better economic and liberty opportunities. What causes frustration and discouragement to enter this nation is the fact that the

Most people when they are asked if they could go anywhere they try and think of an extraordinary place. Maybe the person wants to go and make a change in the world or they just want to go out of enjoyment for themselves. When that question crosses my mind I would want to go to Washington DC. When you want to go into education it is good to visit places that you can teach and tell stories about the place you visited and Washington DC has a fantastic educational background.

“Trust me. You can do it,” my coach shouted when I fell down from my horse. I was at camp for the summer and wanted to learn to ride but I could not manage to control the horse. After several falls, I had all but given up and was afraid to mount the horse again. But my coach just kept pushing me. By the end of the summer and after a lot of practice and setbacks, I not only got over my fear of riding but also learned to control the horse and have a smooth, consistent ride. I often thought about my experience with the horse that summer when I was sitting for USMLE exams. My USMLE Step 1 and 2 exams were not as good as I hoped and it began a distressing time of self-doubt. I was forced to think hard about my childhood dream to pursue medicine

I have realized that there is much more precious to life than wealth, status, property, and materialistic things. For me, the American Dream is not just having the strongest economic standing, wealth, or fame, but attaining happiness through everything and moment in my life and making a difference. My American dream is being able to graduate from high school and attend college because I would like to have the opportunity to directly help those who are less fortunate than me and make them happier. I feel that there is no greater joy than feeling that I was able to help an individual in their time of physical or emotional need. My American Dream is being able to walk into a home with a happy family and know that my presence is welcomed and is

I went to Martin Luther College for the entire weekend for a basketball tournament. We left thursday at noon, and we did not arrive until eight o’clock that night. The college student that was suppose to pick Nathan and I up never showed up. We had to wait an extra 30 minutes because we had to find a new roommate. When we finally put our luggage down, we went straight to the pool. I did not go to bed until 3:30 in the morning because the college kids next to my room were really loud. In the morning, I went down to have breakfast with the team. I had eggs and hash browns. We went to chapel and had a tour of the campus. The campus was really nice. We had a game at 4:45, so coach wanted us to meet up at three. Unfortunately, we lost our first

What is common between San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Stockholm, Johannesburg, Pune, London, Los Angeles and Denver? These are the places my father worked as an Oracle consulting expert therefore I would say International experience at an early age makes me unique. Adjusting to an international college campus culture would be straightforward for me due to my extensive travel in the US, Europe and Asia.

So about 5 years ago it was the last day of school for me and i was excited for my summer to begin. My parents had plan a trip for the family to go visit the US Capitol, The Lincoln Memorial,and the Washington Monument and family that we have up there.For the 4 hour drive we finally got there and trust me I was very excited to be there. So our first stop was the Lincoln Memorial and I thought it was smaller than it looked in movies or pictures that I seen before.Next we went to the Washington Monument I think that was the only one i really wanted to see so i took so lots pictures and video to save to show to my friends when i got back to school. Lastly we the to the US Capitol there was so many steps to get to the actual place so we got there, there was so many paintings on the ceiling first i was confused on about how they got all the way up there to paint that.So it was time to go so me and my oldest cousin that was two years older than me at the time decided we wanted to run down the steps.

After the dissatisfying quality of service I received, it is unlikely I will use the airline for my future business trips and request compensation due to employee errors. As a small business owner, I constantly travel and called Jet Express Airlines direct to get the best price for my multiple stop trip. After three calls, I paid $172.50 over my original quote and when I mentioned it to Ashley, the third representative, she said, "Well, you could always take a bus from St. Louis to Nashville, couldn't you?"
