If I Had The Opportunity To Speak To A Young Immigrant Girl That Just Arrived To The U.s. The Advice I Would Have For Her Would Be: Ask, Speak, Search; Because There Are Opportunities Out There. And, Know That You Aren't The Only Immigrant Or The Last To Come To This Country. Many That Have Come Before You Have Succeeded. It Is Possible.
