My First Day at My First School in the USA

            After many ups and downs my family and I got our visas on the 16th of July, 2009. After about three months, my father bought tickets for the airplane for us. We arrived in the USA on November 1st, 2009.
            A few days later, my uncle told me that I had to go to school with my cousin, Shufi. He attended Eastside Memorial High School. That made me so uneasy, and I was so afraid about how the new school would be? What type of classes would I have to take? Would they be easy for me? Are the teachers nice with the students?  Am I going to have any friends in my new school?  All these thoughts made me kind of crazy.

          Anyway, on November 13th, I went to that school with my cousin. When we arrived at the school, I was looking at the people and I was trying to find somebody who would be the same ethnicity as me. But I didn't find anybody who looked like a Bengali. Everything was different from Bangladesh. However, Shufi introduced me to the principal and to all of the teachers. I was little bit nervous, but they welcomed me to their school and they were so nice. Some students came and said 'hello' to me. All these things made me very comfortable. I went to his classes as a visitor and I enjoyed them. The teachers were so nice and they were very friendly. I had a good day on my first day at Eastside Memorial High School.
