    me and my sister finally mad it to america after two days being on the lower part of a boat. when me and my sister got to angel island they split us up which is bad because I didnt get to tell my sister not to tell them about are father being sick. The reason I didnt want her to tell them that is because if she did they would think it was contagiuos and keep her in the station which did happen and I had to wait for her at a motel for a whole week.
