I’m very proud I am Hungarian. It’s a really small country and I feel honored to be here. You don’t hear often of people saying, “I’m from Hungary.” You just don’t.
In school here they aren’t like grade, grade, grade — it’s more like getting to know the things. In social studies we’re getting to know the land. In language arts it isn’t about the grade, it’s about getting to love reading. Here, you have more fun but you still learn the same amount.
I don’t say this often but I am so proud that I can achieve the most that I want in a different country. I want to coach wrestling. I started wrestling two years ago in Hungary. It isn’t hard for me, but what is hard is not knowing how to be better when I want to be better. When my parents told me we had to move here, I was happy that my dad didn’t have to come here alone. We could support him. But I was sad because my other family is in Hungary and so are my friends. I know when I go to practice I will just forget about it and I will just concentrate on my wrestling. It’s such a good feeling when you’ve found what you love, love, love. That, or I want to work in the military like my dad. If those two things don’t work out, then I want to be a police officer, fighting crime, maybe putting my wrestling moves to use.
