Nice to meet you!
My name is Marcus Fass but my family calls me Moniek. I live in a house in Ulanow with my three siblings and parents. My father works as a tailor in town. I go there often to read the books in the large library and hang out with my friends. We play around town all the time. I have buddies from my old religious school and my new public school. I'm so happy I live near town because I get to see them almost everyday!

My father recently moved to America. My mother has become a seamstress to help pay for us while he is gone. He also sends us money from his job in America. Its been strange without him in the house but soon we will join him there. I don't know how long it will take to get our papers but I don't really want to leave. I want to stay here with my friends and stay at my school. America seems boring anyway. Its much more fun here playing in the streets with Kuba and Michal. They are my best friends. We've spent all summer running around and swimming in the creek. Michal's dad even took us camping in the forest and we got to use his guns! His dad took us fishing too! We made a fire and cooked the fish we caught! I will miss them if I have to leave.

Its my birthday today!! I'm 14 years old! I'm super excited to spend the day with Kuba and Michal because we are going to see The Vagabonds at the cinema. I also finished secondary school and i'm sooo good at math and science. Kuba just came over so we are going to leave. I will write again later, bye.
