Introductory Blog


                        Everything looks really strange when you leave your country to go a different one. All you put in mind is that it will be a great adventure and you will enjoy it. But once you get there you seem to be lost, and feel you are not in the right place. It’s like they put you in a game without knowing how it is played. All you know is you are here and try to figure out how things work. That was me the first time I came to the USA. I wasn't in my skin at all.
                         My name is Stevens Alexis, I was born in Haiti. I move to the United States not too long ago. I lived in Florida before I came to Wisconsin.  I speak three different languages, which are Creole, French, these two are my first languages and English is my third one. I’m a pretty cool person. However, people sometimes think that I’m a really mean person which I don’t think is true. I love to play basketball. It is my passion to reach a higher level like NBA if I keep playing and working hard.

                        I’m a freshman at Silver Lake College who’s going for Computer Science. This is second semester I’m taking four classes. World literature is one of them. I took French literature before, it was pretty interesting. I read a lot of poems and I learn plenty stuff about some writers. So, this semester I’m taking world literature, which based on all writers and theirs poems all over the world. I’m pretty sure that I will benefice a lot from this course. And I hope it enhance my knowledge with things I didn't know or recalled me of stuff I might forget.

  1. Hello Stevens,
    It is interesting to know a little bit about you by your introduction posting. I found myself in your thinking. Yes, It is difficult for those who live far from hometown, family to study or to do something. However, I believe that everything will go well if we do not give up.
