Coming to the United States has been the biggest step in my life. This decision is to finish my studies, become a dentist. And offer help for people in my country. Because I was afraid to come here, I asked everyone about life in the US. For me it was a mystery. I did not know what to expect how do American people live? How do they treat foreign people? All of these questions were in my mind when I asked my friends who were living in the United States. They and all other sources that I listened to, gave me great picture about the US.

I've seen people with no trust to each other, everybody are afraid from each other, some people here are making a lot of geoups depend on skin color and they hate other groups even the forigners. For example, I live in a place call Richmond and I heard that you can't go out from your home after 8:00 pm because you will get stolen especially in the Down Town.
