Americn life....no matter what....Its 82 rs for 1$.....do the math......and DIGNITY OF LABOUR....no matter where you work......Nepalese here earn 82 times more that anyone in Nepal ( except the corrupt politicians)...SO a person who works in a Gas station earns about 1 lahk fifty thousands Nepali RS. or More everymonth.........AS for me ...when I was a student...I worked every job I could lay my hands on........I got so much experience and ideas that now I am a self employed business man. I had to kill my Nepalese mentality and ego to survive. I dont regret comming to the US but also agree that life here is very tough, bills bills bills....but I didnt ask for a easy pass.......I have learned through experience and know how to tackle situations. I make the best of my knowledge and WORK HARD so I get rewarded and sometimes I dont...which makes me want to try harder to succeed. I believe there is a transition period for every Nepalese In America........as students.....we all struggle to pay school, bills and rent, so we do whatever to graduate and gain enough experience to work in a good paying corporate job or utilize the skills learnt while working to start your own business..............we all face challenges here....but where dont you face chllenges in life??? To overcome challenges, hardship and faliure....we shape our identity and IN this land of oppertunity...we make the best of it ......I sure have.....and Im still facing challenges everysday........But I have the knowledge to overcome it and live life everyday....READY FOR THE UNEXPECTED.
