Children of the River

                              If something that bad happened to my town, I would stay.  I think it would be too much of a risk to leave the town if it was under attack. If you left there would be a risk of getting captured or hurt or even killed. I would probably stay in my home and try to stay as safe as possible, I would want to protect my family and friends.
                              If I was in an airport I would probably be with one, or more of my friends and my parents. I would leave  behind some of my friends and family. I would choose to stay with my friends because, if I was going to die I would want to die next to someone I know and am close to. If I wasn't given a choice, I guess I would leave behind a couple of my friends, but definitely not my parents. If I did ended up on a plane and it landed in a country where I did not speak the language I would feel alone. I wouldn't know what to do with myself, and I probably would have wished that I had just stayed home because, in my opinion, feeling alone is similar to death so I would have felt like I would have rather stayed home and died in my own country, next to my friends and people that I love.  Instead of dying in a foreign country all alone.
                               If I figured out I landed in China I would probably cry for a while. My life would be so different, in many ways.  Something I would value in my new home that the people didn't understand would be freedom and having much more money, I know that sounds kind of selfish, but many people there don't have a choice of job or when they want to work. Also, people in China don't have as much money as we do and I would feel like I would miss having money to buy a lot of the things I want. I also can't have a lot of Chinese food because it is cooked in peanut oil, and I am allergic to peanuts so I don't know how well that would work out. I would probably change my attitude if I lived in China because they have so much less than we do and I would feel like I should value things more than I used to because I wouldn't want to take life for granted and I would want to have a nice life after what happened in America. I would want to become a nicer person and try to live more for others and less for myself.
