Here, I would like to talk about the difficulties that I have met
since my immigration to Canada. Being a landed immigrant here, I must
have met the varieties of difficulty. Although I know that I must
overcome all these difficulties in the future, these
difficulties seem invincible today. I am not complaining; instead, I am
expressing my determination to resolve them.
First, communication difficulty is number one problem. English is not
my first language.It must be hard for me to communicate with other
people.In my class,my teacher would use the word "spit" instead of
"saliva" in order to make the students understand.But,outside the
classroom, people won't slow down their speaking speed and use simple
words. At the same time,I always feel anxious to improve my
English. Unfortunately, I can not find a right way to improve my
English effectively.
Then, a totally new new society means a lot of inconvenience to
me. When I got on the bus at the first time in Vancouver,I didn't know
the bus ticket would be useful in 90 minutes. Until today, the wasted
dollars can still make me sad. Also, being a stranger, I always can
not find the right way to lower the living cost.
Finally,I always face difficulties in acquiring the right
information. As a newcomer,I would like to get as much information as
possible to make a dicision. But,the only resource is my friends. It is
inevitably unilateral. Meanwhile, I am looking for a right way to
acknowledge the new society as soon as possible.
Although these difficulties seem very powerful today, I am confident
that I will succeed in Canada. I am optimistic about my future.
