My Trip to the United States
Although I was excited to go to the United States of America, I started to get nervous while I was riding to the airport. In fact, there were two main reasons, which made me nervous. First, starting a new life in a complete different place. Second, leaving my family. While I was on the way to the airport, I noticed that the car was so quiet, and no one was talking. I just heard the outside noise, which mostly comes from the other cars. The only thing that had been said by my mother is “Ahmed, when are you planning to come back home?”. Then, when we were close to the airport, I was hearing her started to cry. I really felt sorry for her, and started to think to cancel my trip and returned back with them, but I decided not to do that as I remembered my father’s advice. After reaching the airport and while I was carrying my luggage, I noticed there were many travelers on a line looking to checking in their pieces of luggage. I waited about one a hour to do that. Suddenly, I looked to my watch and realized it is the time to say hi to my family and leave. At the time, I extremely got nervous. In general, I was in a sad mood as I am leaving them. Once I checked in to the airplane, my mood started to change. I felt happy as I am traveling to America. Regarding the airplane, it was too hot although it was not fully occupied, but after we departed, we started feeling good. In addition, most of the travelers seemed to be tiered and need to sleep. In 30 minutes there were a few people who are still awake. While I was looking through the window, my head touched the window, which was very gold, so I was pretty sure that the outside temperature is below – 30. After that, I was playing whit my I-phone and also watching a movie. In about 7 hours. The cabin crew asked to wear our seat belt, because we are reaching our destination, Frankfurt airport. As a result, most of the travelers waked up preparing their self for landing. After landing in Germany, most of travelers and I were too happy as we just reached our destination. But, in my case I do not really consider myself that I reached my final destination. Because, I had a connected flight to Portland, which probably take 10 hours flying. I became a littlie nervous again, because I was trying to find my flight’s time and its gate number. While I was looking for help, I suddenly meet a guy, who seemed nervous too. We started talking in English and then talked in Arabic because I realized he is from my back home, Saudi Arabia. Then, we both felt happy since we both had the same flight. Everything later became smoothly. No difficulties appeared as we were together trying to help each other.
