In the story “remembering my childhood” while I was reading I had noticed Hugh (main character) had been telling his story about growing up since he had been 7 giving out a lot of detail on his experience on how his life was more interesting because of things that he had owned and the way how his family lived ,while when older he had went to new York where he had said himself it was a “roughned experience” for him even though he had to fight to survive daily in Africa while he only spent 10 days in new York . Hugh had been moving from place to  place such as Kentucky , North Carolina , Ethiopia , from family to family dealing with different surroundings .While he had wanted to be back home ,which had been the life he was dreaming about .
