Experiences

My experiences differ alot from that of my mom. I have the advantage of know the english language very well. She on the other hand can understand it for the most part but has trouble speaking it. That in turn makes it so that she has to have a translator alot of times. Every day I can see myself trying to be turned into the "typical" American. I cannot say that I am for assimilation I refuse to become something that I am not even if I may appear to be "American."
