Aurora's Story

MY FIRST DAY IN NEW YORK

I came to the United States in February 2005. I came by airplane. I bought my ticket, it cost $ 1,000.00. I brought any suitcase. I brought my dreams, and blue jeans, a blouse, a pair of tennis shoes, and a coat. My young brother met me at the airport. I felt scared, and at night I drank too many beers. I was tired. I knew my brothers and my sisters. In the city, I saw the biggest constructions. I bought some clothes and a pair of shoes in my first week. Okay my brother did for me because I had no money. I found my first job at Mac Donald's. I began to study English 2 months after I arrived in Las Vegas Nevada.
Sincerely,
Aurora Ruiz.

Hi Aurora.

What country do you come from? One thousand dollars is a lot of money for a ticket!
Which city do you prefer -- Las Vegas or New York City?
