My name is Samuel MC CARTHY. I was born in London. I can write as well as read, I am married and I have 1 child. I was once a convict and I came to Australia because I stole a watch and came in the ship "Asia I". It was so tiring there and I had to wear stripy clothes to prove that I am a convict and the clothes made me itchy. I was a SEAMEN. I got treated very badly and that one moment I realised that when I stole a watch it wasn't a good thing. The most important thing is that I DON'T GET ENOUGH FOOD!!!!! As well as that I got a life sentence. The clothes, food and everything else wasn't so good over there. My child needed food because he was small he wasn't like us (adults) he couldn't control he's hungriness like we do!!!! All the time I was there I thought that I hate the people who has captured us! Now I realised the pain of stealing a watch.
