Life in the United States is much different for people coming from Mexico. Here in America, they have secure jobs and pay; things they could never achieve in Mexico. Although the beginning was tough, it was all worth the risk and the work. |

Jose: My first impression when I got to America was that there were a lot of white people and I didnt know how to comunitcate with them.
Life in America is much better because you get paid more and you're free, except when you got to run from the boader patrol (La Migra) and when you think of your old country and freinds. |
