Cook This is James Jarrett.  Son Feminist Academic Student Brother Economist Migrant
The Case of James Jarrett I grew up on a farm in Florida, in the southern United States.  There I had loads of family close by - about eighty members of my extended family lived within a mile of the farm!  It was good, I had instant friends in all my cousins, and things were secure, my family were always there to support each other.  We werenโ€™t rich but everyone looked after everyone  Life in the U.S. Photos here
The Case of James Jarrett I went to a school twenty miles away, in the same town as my parentโ€™s business, so Iโ€™d be given a lift by them every day until I could drive myself.  School was a bit like school for everyone - some good bits and some bad.  Life in the U.S. I lived in a poor area - people donโ€™t really know whatโ€™s out there outside of their community, and it meant that very few people ever left.  I was different, I did want to leave - there werenโ€™t the opportunities for me in my home area.

The Case of The Reaction The course I was on was really international - people came from all over the world, so being a โ€˜foreignerโ€™ wasnโ€™t unique to me.  We were all in the same boat.  Being American had no real consequenceโ€ฆ other than me being able to discuss world politics - something everyone wanted to talk about, especially after 9/11.

The Case of The Resolution? When Iโ€™ve got the money I will probably get dual citizenship (Iโ€™ve already qualified for this because Iโ€™ve been working here for more than five years in a row).  I want to do this because Iโ€™ve made both my professional and my personal life here.  I like it here, and itโ€™s become home. In October 2009 I took the โ€˜Life in the UKโ€™ test as part of my application.  I was asked a range of questions, from employment law to history - Iโ€™m not even sure many of my British friends would have passed!  I did pass, and ยฃ860 later I secured an โ€˜indefinite leave to remainโ€™ visa.
