                                                          Birthday Times

A lot of people don’t celebrate birthday. For some people it’s because of religious some of them don’t’ even know the date they were born, and some people don’t care they considered birthday date as a regular date of the year. But for Guerdie, birthday always excited even more excited each year in March 19r. Since 2011 as Guerdie’s became an adult, every year Guerdie has to make something different in this date March 19. It could be a vacation, a movie, a restaurant or a house party.

      In March 19 2011, Guerdie’s went to a movie with a friend that was a very funny moment and sad at the same time. It was funny because the movie was a funny movie, Guerdie had enjoyed that time in the movie theater, but the sadness time was waited at home after the movie.

      As Guerdie went to the movie without nobody’s permission, all the great joys Guerdie’s had for the birthday and from the movie arriving home everything joy had gone, by Guerdie’s father Ryste. Its true Ryste didn’t know about Guerdie’s would go to the movie, but it would make no different if Ryste knew about it. Because Ryste doesn’t like when Guerdie’s going out with unless with a family member and if it really with a family member, Ryste got a make sure that to have a conversation to the family member before Guerdie could go anyplace. That night, Ryste was out to work and Guerdie went to the movie without alerted Ryste and with no family member that was with a friend. As Guerdie knew the time Ryste always back home from work ,Guerdie thought that Guerdie’s would be back home from the movie before Ryste got home and that was wrong thought. Because the movie was longer than what Guerdie’s expected.

      Here Ryste got back from work around 10:30 pm and walked straight to Guerdie’s bedroom to say hi to the birthday girl and the birthday girl was out. Ryste didn’t do nothing than stood by the window in the living room waited on the birthday girl to come and the birth girl didn’t get home until 11: 30 pm. When  Guerdie’s got out of the car and saw Ryste car in the parking garage, in Guerdie’s mind that was okay because all the light was tuned off in the house, it was okay if Ryste’s home  and might might be fell as sleep already

                                                Lived In the United States with My Father

A lot of people who are from other countries always have a desire to come to the United States even for a quick visit. I have always wanted to come to the United States because of the good comments I have heard from other people who used to come to visit United States. But I knew I would have to come one day because of my father who was leaving in the United States.

      When I was a baby I didn’t grow with my father, I was with my mother and my grandmother .My used to come to see, took care of me spent money for did everything but he couldn’t leave in the house  with my mother because he was already married to another woman.

      When I was seven years old, my father decided to separate me from my grandmother and my mother to come to live with him at his house, unfortunately that was only for one year because my father had to move to the United State to live with his wife who had already moved to the United State before I was born.

      My father moved to the United States he left me with brothers and sisters in Haiti. He only came to visit me once a year, because of that reason my father and I didn’t have no time to get to know each other very well. The only thing I could observe on his character traits: he was a very talkative person. I realized that before I moved to the United States by talking to him on the phone I could see his reactions how he talked a lot for any little thing. That didn’t affect my feeling  I had still have the desire  to come to live with him because he was the only one who could have me came to the United States to see those big New City’s buildings I used to watch on TV.

      Here come the time for me to move to the United States in March thirty 1^st 2010 to live with my father Ryste, who is a real Christian in Catholic Church. The same day I came to the United States it was on Easter weekend. My father took me to church to meet the Priest and some of his friend at church. That weekend my father thanked God on his prayer for that blessed Easter we passed together because we had never had a chance to be together in a big moment like that for the past 11 years.

      Came in to the United States was also a great time for my father and I to get to know each other and to more focus on each other’s behavior to see what was good and what was needed to be change. A lot of good things was appeared, but we both had our weak side.

      I stayed over to my father’s house for four years, at age 24 I decided it was time for me to have my independence I moved to my own apartment. It was so hard him he even got sick because and depressed but it was better for me to leave than staying in the house. I know that wasn’t his intentions to see me leave the house before I got married but I had to.

      What I love with my father is a very responsible Father, caring, patient and loves he had for his children. He has five children two men and three women and I’m the youngest, for this reason I get more attention, more love more care even more control. Even though I was not in his house  he still supported me he always had his car ready for me when I needed it , he paid for my car repaired  when he comes to my house always checked at my refrigerator to see what I missed and bring some shopping in the house. My father knows I liked banana, cereal and green vegetables because I’m sick with anemia he brought them.

      Sometimes I felt like my father did too much for me, but he always said to me “I know you are not a healthy a person you need to take care of yourself, when you were next to me I didn’t have to worry about those things because I knew how you used to eat, to sleep and to wake up in the morning, now you are not in my house no more I got a make sure you have everything you need”

     In one word nobody can’t play my father’s role in my life and wherever I can be from him I will always remember his loves, his supports and his efforts to push me to success. One thing he likes to do compare me with my brothers and my sisters he always said “if your brothers and your sisters came in to the United States in their twenties almost thirties and they became engineer, social worker, nurse and business so you came younger and you even smarter you can do better; I want to see you do something have a profession in your life before I died”.

      According to all my father and I been through together since we were in Haiti including in the United States I always feel so proud to have him as my father and I can wait to welcome him at my house when he gets older so I can take care of him how he used to take care of me.
