Kelly's immigration story



                                                    Kelly’s immigration

          I interviewed my sister about her immigration. Her name is Kelly Wu, from China, has 28 years old, got married and lives in Venezuela now. In 1998, she lived in a small village call “ShangKaiCun”. There were poor, that place of people was nice.  
           One day, she heard her grandma said they had chance to leave, she could move to other place, she was happy and sad, because she could move, began new life and leave the place that she had grown.
            The day when she leaves, she was crying. But her mom comforts her, said its ok, daughter, we separate this time, we will meet again next time.
              In the airplane, she felt surprised because it’s her first time to ride the airplane, during in the airplane, she couldn’t sleep, while no one played with her, and she didn’t speak English and Spanish, she just thinking how is another country looks like.
              She felt exciting and tired when she arrives Venezuela. Next day, she felt Spanish was difficult when she began to learned Spanish because she learned by herself. Sometime had some Venezuelans teach her where she working, she work in a restaurant called ‘HaoLiWang’. She felt happy to working there.
              There are public security was bad, while there less Chinese and there had many kidnap, the offender often kidnap Chinese and kids. The police also were like to bully Chinese, usually in policy check of the name to get some secret money from Chinese’s restaurant and stories. The only one thing that she doesn’t like in Venezuela is the public security is bad.
               Now she doesn’t want to get back to China, because it’s already habit in Venezuela’s life and she got marry, she likes live in there. Has a happy family in there.
