Language: I Speak two languages. They are English, Spanish and a little bit of Arabic. At home my parents speak mostly Spanish but my parents still know English. I was raised in the U.S. but my parents were raised in Colombia. The language they speak in Colombia well you know Spanish but not all South America speaks Spanish, like Brazil.
Colombia has many places to go, its huge. In the past Colombia use to have a lot of land until America cut it of to give it to the panamas. We speak Spanish, because Spain was the one who came to our land and so far Spain speaks Spanish. They came to South America because Jose Antonio Paez landed in Venezuela and didn't know where he was. So he decided to travel and then discovered Venezuela. He started camping with his men and landed in Colombia. Simon Bolivar[Is the first president in Colombia]was with him and started to divide the countries and that's how Colombia had its land and its discovery.
Religion:I am not a Religious person but I am Catholic. In my country they are also Catholics. Me and my parents used to pray in church almost every single day but now we go on Sunday. In In our Religion, we believe in statues and pray to them. I do not pray to them, nether my parents. In Colombia there are 90% of Catholic others 10%.
This is how I got my Religion. My ancestors went to a church to pray then the priest asked "This is a Catholic church, how come you do not become Catholic... you should have a Religion." The priest and my ancestors were friends back then and that's how my ancestors began to become Catholic, because they followed the priest. Then ancestors began to pass it down to many generation until now that since I am the youngest in my family.When I first went to church and I got baptised. They put me water in my face. Thats how I became Catholic. I love my Religion, because it basically is an easy religion.
Immigration:Actually my mother did not immigrate to America. Back then people from Colombia could travel to the United States without problem but now people are gonna have to fill out a lot of papers. My grandma traveled to America first, then my mother. My mother traveled to America when she was 14. [Its actually traveling in a plane.] She started working when she was 18. She came to America at 1985
But back then my mother in Colombia she used to sell milk to the people who ordered milk. She had the shop when she was 8. She started delivering at the age 9. My grandmother owned the shop. When she got to America she worked as a Cleaner in the police department. My father owns two shops with his brother and his two cousins.
He came from Lebanon When he was 18 to Venezuela and came to America when he was 20. My father worked when he was 7. He would always try to jump on donkey and travel to a workshop,where in back of the workshop he would have to take out corn and help his father take out apples from the trees. He got to America in 1982
Economics:Do you wonder why people immigrate to the U.S.? Its because U.S. accounts has 20% of the worlds economy. People say America is a best place to be and they have great jobs. Some Americans don't mostly like Latins, because Latin people would do anything to get payed at almost any price. But Americans want to get payed the price they feel like getting payed.
Colombians comes to America, because Colombia don't really pay much to people. In Colombia they make 8,600 per person. In America they make 44,000 per person. There is a very good atmosphere with good and wealth. That's why some countries would go just to get a better life. And by the way North America is the capital of the world.

I have used these Themes to back up my History that I have wrote about [Language, Religion, Immigration, Economy.] To talk about My Parents and me.
