All three girls agree that even though they have been taught English as a second language since they started school, it is difficult trying to understand the language being spoken by kids here. I had a lot of trouble with English the first week that I was here, Raid Nutayla. The accents and mannerisms make the words sound different than they did when our teachers at school said them. And the pimple here speak faster. Iara was a little more blunt in her assessment. I love learning the English language! Bhe said. But the slang is difficult...like Oh my heck!'.

They all love to socialize, go shopping, be with their friends. Natayla even competed for homecoming queen at Altamont High. She proudly admitted that she won the essay portion of the contest... writing on the topic of teenagers and their values through the years.
