Leaving My Home 离开我的家

I have lived with my mom in Oregon for my whole life. I have so many wonderful memories in Oregon, and it is time to make new ones in Taiwan. My mom has taught me a lot, and I have also taught my mom a lot. She has taught me kindness and confidence, and I have taught her patience and fun. After 22 years, although I am leaving home very soon, my mom and I will continue to use what we have learned, also continue to learn new things. I won't completely leave my mom, she is in my heart, and Oregon will always remain my home. After this year teaching abroad, I may even move to Taiwan, and Taiwan could become another home. Anything could happen in the future, and that is such a great feeling. Thank you mom for always supporting me, helping me grow, and giving me confidence to go to Taiwan. 
我的全生活在俄勒冈州跟妈妈主了。我在俄勒冈州有很多非常好的回忆, 时间到了在台湾创造新的回忆。妈妈教了我很多, 我也教了妈妈很多。她教了我善意和自信,我教了她耐心和喜悦。二十二年以后, 虽然我会很快离开家, 妈妈和我会一直用学过东西, 也一直学新东西。 我不会完全离开妈妈,她是在我的心里, 俄勒冈永远是我的家。 一年以后教英文在海外, 我可能搬到台湾,台湾可能成为另外一个家。 未来什么都可能发生, 这是一个很好的感觉。 谢谢妈妈, 永远支持我, 帮助我长大, 给我自信去台湾。
