Lucky's Recation

Over time many people have immigrated to the United States for all sorts of reasons. No matter what their reasons are they all have the same dream of being here. They have this idea in their head that the U.S. is a better place for them to be. Lucy immigrated to the U.S. and as like everyone else she had hopes and dreams of a better life there. But things aren't always what they seem. Lucky imagined the U.S. as her escape and freedom as does everyone. Her first impressions of the U.S. was disappointing to her. Lucky describes the U.S. as dirty, it wasn't clean around where she lived and she didn't like that. Back in her country she lived in a big house,now her family has to live in a apartment. Lucy describes the apartment as being trapped in a box. The same feeling our early immigrant probably felt when they came from Europe and moved to the cities. The cities were over populated and 10 to 12 or even more had to live in one room apartments. That isn't a good feeling for anyone
Not only where she had to live bothered her, Lucy had many reasons for how she left. She observed how they kept food and the weather. She wasn't used to having a refrigerator and i don't think she likes it. She says putting the food in there for later is just having old food to eat. They used to cook a new meal everyday. I guess she likes to have her food fresh. She is also used to being in a warm or hot climate. Lucy arrived in January and that is a very cold month in New York. So far Lucy isn't enjoying life in the U.S., but she needs to give her self time to adjust.
I was born in New York and i can't even imagine the transition to move here from a country that hasn't really developed. It must be hard and confusing to understand everything and first. Also with most of the people immigrating here they probably expect everyone to have the best of everything and for them self to get everything right away. But people forget that if you want something you have to work hard to get it. The only opportunity that the U.S. gives you is the ability to achieve anything. That doesn't mean people will hand it to you , it means you have to be willing and determine.
