                                                Journal Entry  

My relationship with kids that are from foreign country is pretty good. I remember this one time when a kid from India named Ishwinder that came into my grade 4 class and sat beside me on his first day. He started smiling like if someone painted my face and no idea about it. As the time passed by during the period we started talking and he told me many things about himself such as how his sister is planning to get married the following year so family members are searching for a bachelor that shares the same interest as her. He also told me about where he lived in India and he told me that his family owned some land. I asked him many questions regarding about the land that his family owned in India such as what vegetables does his family grows because my family also owns land in India. He told me that he didn’t for long time. I asked him why and he responded saying that times were tough so they sold the land and immigrated here. As the year progressed and we started to become close friends I started seeing some advantages being with him for example, if me and Ishwinder worked together for a project the teacher would come and help us with the project for the reason that Ishwinder is from a foreign country and doesn’t understand English fluently. As much as advantages there were, there were also may drawback such as showing Ishwinder around the school during class when the teacher gave us time in class to do our homework. My interactions with Ishwinder with very unique because since were the only 2 Indian kids in the classroom we’d usually talked in our native languages so that the kids in the classroom didn’t know what we were talking about. My overall experience with Ishwinder was great, probably the best one I ever had yet. I can say this because we had many great moments together in and out of class and also experience many high’s and low’s as well.
