B. Thesis Statement: Emphasizing the advantages and disadvantages of immigrating to the United States.

II. Making the Decision to Relocate: 

A.  Reasons for personally choosing America.

1. My first reason for relocating to America was for the Educational possibilities that this country can provide me because back in my country educational opportunities were very low.

2.  My second reason was that the U.S. has personal monetary growth opportunities, since this country has the biggest growing economy in the whole world it is a "glorious" place for people who come from a third-world high-inflation country just like me.

III. My journey

A.  My journey through emotions

 1. Leaving behind my loved ones and home was the hardest thing I've done in my life, especially for someone like me who always had to hang around with the same people and attend to the same places. 

 2. On my way here I had fear and excitement about arriving in the unknown, starting from cero was something that used to terrify me every time through my relocation journey. 

IV. Upon Arrival and First Impressions
   A. Getting around in unfamiliar surroundings

1. Since English is not my first language, I used to have many barriers  caused by language

 2. Something that took me a few months was getting used to the norms of American society, which are completely the opposite of where I came from


V.
Identity Heritage

   A. Accepting differences

1. To avoid hard times trying to socialize I  found the right and respectful way to engage with this multicultural society     

B. Preserving relationships with culture
1.  I promised myself that I would not cut the roots of my culture, I know many immigrants who have done that I started to understand traditions and celebrations from my culture because, at the end of the day, my country does not have to be blamed for all the bad things that had happened there.

 2. Since my relocating I had to find a balance between integration and cultural belonging.

VI. Accomplishments and Reflection

A. Contemplation of the journey 

1.  Employment goals and academic accomplishments were something that never crossed my mind during my time living in my home country, thanks to the opportunity that the  U.S has provided me, the mentioned above and so much more that I have acquired, and that was thanks to taking the courage to relocate to a new unknown place, that I can now call home.

VII. Conclusion
   A. Emphasize the main idea

1. Emerging to a completely new place is not an easy thing, in my opinion choosing to immigrate to the United States is like a dance between ambition and nostalgia, optimism and fear. In other words, it's about finding a balance between the connections that connect you to your past and the goals that push you ahead.

a minimum word count of 400 Your paper that is finished but not polished is called a rough draft. Before beginning your rough draft, it's a good idea to construct an outline to help you organise your thoughts and arguments. The actions you can take to write your rough draft are as follows: Select a topic (the one the professor has already approved of course). Expand on the earlier concepts you raised in the outline. Formulate and articulate your thesis statement. Sort through your ideas and make notes. Create a synopsis. Get more details, but this time look for material that bolsters your arguments.

    Make a summary of this reading

     "Centering Immigrant Youth Voices: Writing as Counterstorytelling" highlights a multiyear after-school writing experience that aimed to provide space and opportunity for young immigrants/migrants to write and share their personal stories in resistance to problematic constructions of their identities, given the current political rhetoric surrounding immigration/migration in the United States. The paper describes the afterschool writing club and focuses on three student narratives to better understand the realities of immigration/migration to the United States today. The narratives reflect deeply felt familial connections, courage in the face of struggle, and a commitment to truth-telling. It also emphasizes the need to reclaim the stories of young immigrants/migrants and the importance of leveraging personal stories as tools for identity reclamation. The paper demonstrates how young people's narratives act as counterstories to challenge dominant narratives about immigration/migration, emphasizing their strength, resilience, and courage. It also highlights the need for critical attention to the narratives and how they can be internalized and reflected in the stories. The authors suggest that inviting students to explore questions related to dominant narratives about immigration/migration can open opportunities for critical understanding and empowerment. The research provides a valuable perspective on the power of storytelling as a means of resistance and self-advocacy for immigrant youth, encouraging hope, healing, and the challenge of problematic discourses. Also, the researchers provide insight into ongoing work in the field and potential areas for future research and teaching initiatives
