Living the American dream as a teenager. I'm still young, an incoming sophomore, yet I was given a chance to leave my third world country to live the life I have always wanted. I turned it down.
I didn't want my parents to empty out every single penny they worked for just for me to be away from them and be in another continent working and studying at the same time. Sometimes when I think of it, I see myself as a coward. Like how can other people survive in other countries away from their parents and I didn't have the guts to at least try?
My only hope is graduating and that's when I leave my country.
