'Coming to America My Personal Story\r'

'â€Å"History is something we make to wee-weeher”, Orhan Pamuk once said. It is as well as something we eff together, I would add, because it is often a shimmer of coincidences. Bulgaria is a beautiful country in europium. The geographic location of Bulgaria is in the South eastern hemisphere of europium on the Balkan Peninsula. It has an interesting geography. It has mountains on the south and the nerve marrow squash and valleys in between. The entire b army on the East is constituted by the coastline of the Black Sea. Romania is the border on the North separated by the Danube River.To the West is Serbia and Macedonia, spell Greece and Turkey are on the South. After an aborted rebellion in 1923, the Bulgarian communistic Party had gone underground and its attractors fled to the Soviet Union. The Bulgarian caller was marked by inner turmoil. The German infringement of the Soviet Union in 1941 brought unity among Communists valetwide. In April 1944 the Communis t society proclaimed itself the First Bulgarian Partisan Brigade and started communicating with the command center in Sofia.The Chavdar brigade became the main arm of the party leaders in Sofia for sabotage, raids, and intimidation around the capital. During the night of September 8, 1944 the current situation led the partisans in capturing without bloodshed, the Ministry of War, arresting the ministers and seizing the communication clay. As the partisans became the refreshing militia, its political chief of staff directed the round-up and transaction of thousands of enemies of Communism in Bulgaria.According to the official figures, 12,000 of the population were delivered to the peoples tribunals, art object untold numbers disappeared without a trial. I was natural in 1947, the youngest in the family, in the town of Shumen by the seaside on the cost of the Black sea. We had a two story house on the hills. In the winter sea news the streets were covered with four feet of en igmatical snow. In spring, Lipton trees bloomed with flowers, lining on both sides of the streets. The thwack of its fragrance still remains in my memory.In the summer after teach, we were vacationing for three months in the beach house by the Black Sea. My father stupefyed croupe to provide for us. Because of his love, goodness and kindness of his heart to our family, he struggled a lot to make up with the fresh government changes and restrictions. My father studied in France to be a dental practitioner and had a clinic in our town and my mother was a house wife. Dad had a great influence on us as a pro-westerner because of his study abroad, living experience and experience of the life outside Bulgarian borders.He told us awful stories nigh the apologise world like Paris, capital of Italy and the life of the Western world of prosperity and set freedom. I grew in communist Bulgaria, simply we were Armenian by nationality, because our grandparents came from Turkey as ref ugees in 1914, when Turks occupied Armenian land. They started their untested life in Bulgaria. Communist Bulgaria and Soviet Union became very close. The emergence of Nikita Khrushchev as the leader of the Soviet Union replaced Joseph Stalin. After those changes life in Bulgaria became worse, bad economy, no food, no housing, and corruption followed.Only the members of the communist party were privileged! Everyone bemused their businesses and personal plaza because the Government took over. Our house was also nationalized. I receive high school in December 1965, I could not further my education because my father apply for a refugee visa so that we can pull up stakes the country and move away from this difficult and pervert life. The Government refused to give us a visa for the succeeding(prenominal) five age! Instead they charter me to go to serve in the military for the next two years.I was in the army during the conflict with coterminous Hungary and there were a few( prenominal) major crises during my stay in the army. I completed my military service in the Bulgarian army and started going to college for my higher education. I also wanted to be a dentist and a dental technician like my father. At the alike(p) time our family was hoping that sooner or later the Bulgarian communist party allow permit us to fall in the country. During his lengthy reign, the President Zhivkovs main polity was to follow the Soviet model. He often utter that loyalty to the Soviet Union was a sample of Bulgarian patriotism.He pursued increasing integration with the Soviet economy and resisted the sparing experimentation of neighboring Hungary. In cultural affairs he bought off the imaginative intelligentsia to head off dissent. There were few major crises during his time in power get out for one military plot, several instances of terrorism, and occasional outbursts of dissent. Bulgarias economic advancement during the era came to an end in the 1980s, and the give way of the Communist system in Eastern Europe marked a turning point for the countrys development.In 1990 elections, the Communist Party renamed the Bulgarian Socialist Party and remained in power. A series of crises in the 1990s leftfield much of Bulgarias industry and agriculture in shambles. I personally followed politics, economy and finance. Bulgaria joined NATO (North Atlantic accordance Organization) in 2004 and the European Union in 2007. We had no hope until the ANCA (The Armenian National Committee of America), the largest and closely influential Armenian American grassroots system helped the Armenian community.ANCA was working in coordination with a entanglement of offices, chapters and supporters throughout the United States and affiliated organizations around the world, such as The United Nation, to help Armenian families leave all communist countries around the world to get freedom, destining America. In 1948, the United Nations adopted the Universal resol ving power of Human Rights, Article 14, which declares, â€Å"Everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution. ” I was worrying that I was leaving the place where I was born, but inside in my heart I was legal opinion happy for the brisk life that I will face soon.Finally we received our visas to leave the country. In order to reach our destination which was the United States, we had to stop in the city of Beirut, Lebanon as a refugee in 1968 and indeed we flew to our final destination which was naked York in December, 1969. New York is an amazing city, no wonder everyone talks about New York. It is one of the most agglomerations in the world at the center of the Metropolitan Area. New Yorker’s called us rubber necks looking always up at the tall skyscrapers.We stayed for some time in New York, but we had to move to Los Angeles where our friends from back dwelling house started their life from zero. Our family had to do the same. Life for us was very difficult at the beginning especially for my parents head start at sixty; they had to start all over, building a new life. We lost everything, we had to learn English, comment work, go to school at night, and find new friends and neighbors. Refugees or families like us really struggled a lot in the beginning. It took us many years to forget the difficulties, the hard work, pain and suffering.Unfortunately, I lost my parents in the first three years of my stay in the United States; they could not take the pressures of the new life. Even though it was difficult for them, they were happy they came, so that we could build our life in this free antiauthoritarian capitalism. This country is a political, economic, and social system and ideology based on a tripartite recording of a market-based, economy based predominantly on a democratic policy, economic incentives through free markets, fiscal responsibility and a liberal moral-cultural system which encourag es pluralism.This economic system supports a capitalist free market economy subject to control by a democratic political system that is support by the majority. I am happy instantly with my lovely family, my wife and two boys. My older son is following the dental profession, and my younger son have medicine becoming a surgeon. I am still following politics, economy and finance. In 2000 I became a Financial Advisor for WFG. And in 2004 I became a real estate agent and a Broker. Today I am back to school taking classes at an online university for pre-law and I completed my LAVC (Los Angeles vale College) for Paralegal degree.\r\n'
