Helen Wang, one of my friends, she was unable to go to collage in China at that time . In 1980`s she came to the U.S.A, when she was 28 years old. She wanted to be a nurse. She studied English hard from the beginning while she took care of old ladies to make money. Step by step, after ten years of hard working,... Now she is an advanced nurse ,serving in a big hospital in Arcadia.Her husband was her team made(working together with her) in the countryside in China at that time. He is now an accounter in a company. Their son graduated from a university a few years ago, and he have been married. Helen now lived a happy life with her family. She has accomplished her dream.
That is a wonderful story. I think it takes a generation or two to fully assimilate, but it is good to hear the dream is still alive.
