Transcript: An Immigrant's Life By: Catherine Fajardo Photo based on: 'horizon' by pierreyves @ flickr My experiences in the U.S. And Finally Introduction: It was hard trying to cope with not having your kids where you are. Getting lost, and adjusting to what we have. Baby sitting, Caregiver Life for me now is not great nor good, but its just enough and right to get through life. I plan to come back to the Philippines. I had to give up my job in the Phils. as a teacher and leave my family behind. I had problems getting the job I wanted or even just getting a job. Learning to appreciate what you have before you lose it. I regret coming to America and trading the job I had in the Phils. and my family for my job here. But I don't regret making sacrifices for my family's sake. Make the most of what you have and keep family close. Immigrants don't just come to other countries and get money that easy. We actually work really really hard to get every bit of it. The least they can do is ask me how my life was there before they start going through the Balikbayan Boxes. Life growing up in the Phils. was very simple. My most memorable moments back in the Phils. were the family events like reunions and fiestas and meeting and marrying your father. When i was young, back in the olden days, I wanted to become a nurse. The social and political situation in the Phils. was very poor and corrupt. Though mostly everyone had some family member to depend on or ask help from. I was entering the age of retirement and having 2 more kids about to enter high school, I still needed to work. I was pulled to go to America because of its opportunities. I felt really sad and depressed. Before leaving for America, I viewed it as an open door of opportunities and better life. I have to leave you and your brother (Me and Michael), my siblings and relatives, and also my friends. Back in my Homeland: Bad system makes you want to leave and find a better life that sometimes causes much worst results.
