 Today we had to finish the work sheet 'On the Way to School Documentary questions.'  There was a lot of realization on my part because I didn't know how difficult it was getting to school and how much school meant to the kids of the documentary. Plus, all the kids in the world that have to go through the same difficult/ dangerous journey. I am grateful for having a free education and easy access to the transportation it provides. I really should take advantage of the opportunities I'm given, so maybe one day I can help the ones who really need it.

The only thing I have to better myself in are the dishes, all the food we eat is delicious, but I can’t make it. I don’t want to be the one to discontinue everything we know from our home country, so I must learn.
