My story starts when I was born in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, my parents decided to move to the land of opportunities and go to a far-away land, called America. I was born on the 6th of February in 2002. The things I have learned and believe in and the experiences I have had throughout my life have shaped me into the person I am today.
As the eldest child of my family, a lot has been required of me from an early age. As the eldest child, I am treated slightly differently than my other siblings. Both good and bad things come from this. And because I’m the eldest child, it means that my parent has restrictions on me. In short, they just generally have more freedom. There are times that I become a free babysitter; every day except Sunday, when I must stay in and mind my younger siblings, no arguments and I got no money for it. It’s also more pressure for you as the oldest to be an example for the younger ones and to be mature and responsible in every situation. You need to be a role model to your younger siblings, taking care of them and helping them when they need it. I believe it is my duty and responsibility to take care of my family when I’m older.
My memories of my life as a child in Cambodia are fragmented and dont seem real to me. I do recollect that life was tough for both of my parents particularly my father. He had to take care of my sick grandmother while taking care of me and my brother. My grandmother passed away in May, a month after I had visited her for the first time since immigrating to America. I am very grateful for my grandmother who had saved up her entire life savings so that she could send me and my family to America to have an opportunity for a better life. I have learned that I must be grateful for the things that I have.
My life in America wasnt easy. I had to learn a new language, leave behind my childhood friends, move to a place on the other side of the world, and live a completely new life full of new experiences. America was the melting pot of the world. I was not just learning and adjusting to one culture, but to hundreds of cultures to become a real citizen. I officially became a U.S. citizen when I was in middle school, but I can’t remember the exact date I took the oath.
The things I have learned, have confidence in and the encounters I have had throughout my life have formed me into the individual I am today.
