This story about Julia’s family, new immigrants are from the Dominican Republic to USA. In the country, her three sisters and she want to look like they belong to America. They looked in magazines and TV shows, they also studied from their classmates. They studied a lot, but finally she knew they would never be the American girl. They are curly haired and used a strong foundation to tone down their olive skin these were just the appearance. They are foreigners, so they already have acquired their habits from the place they came from. This is my best reading for this semester because I’m an immigrant. I can understand Julia and her sisters’ condition. I think some people are so motivated not to express their differences with others, and they are too simple to fit in a new country. They don’t want others to look them differently. They hope everyone is same, and people will easily to accept them. Furthermore, some people just like Julia and her sisters live in a new country and want to completely fit in with their new life.
