Burdick School: A Short Story

506 Words3 Pages

Hi there, it 's your home girl Kiera, and why don 't I just jump into this very prolonged and complicated story.

Ever since I have attended Burdick school, I have been known as a Seefeldt. Now, some people might not really get it, but the ones who have been here awhile possibly know what I 'm talking about. Seefeldt happens to be one of my two last names, and for some that 's all you know. Well, the Seefeldt name has had a history with A.E. Burdick school, for better or worse. Let 's just say five other Seefeldt 's have been here before me. Let me explain how this all started.
My grandma, Rita Seefeldt, had been an aspiring new teacher on the prowl for a new job. Well, in 1986 her hopes and dreams came true. She had landed a new job at the fine …show more content…

*As all this was going on, my grandma was still teaching away here. *

Well, a few years went by, and not only did the two sisters move up into new grades, my Unlce Greg came to Burdick school, looked upon as a Pee-Wee-Herman by his fellow older sisters. A year later Justin Seefeldt, the youngest of the group, was finally going to be enrolled into school, and you guessed it, that school had been Burdick. This meant that my grandma was teaching at A.E. Burdick school and her four children had attended the school as well.

Flash forward to when Gregory had been in eighth grade at Burdick, (meaning his two sisters had graduated already) a child who possessed the name of Kiera (Torres) Seefeldt would be enrolled that same year. This being said, my grandmother had still been working here. Not only was Greg in eighth Justin would be in 7th (He wasn 't, but that 's a whole story on its own.) Anyways, I had my two uncles to look up to (literally and figuratively) at Burdick. Well, that was until Greg had graduated, and the following year Justin did too. The year Justin graduated was the last year my Granny-Poo worked at A.E. Burdick, leaving me to face and embrace the school all by myself for the rest of my years at

    My first name Nathan ranks thirty-eighth in the United States and thirteenth in Canada, but that is low in relation to crowning my first name to be the most popular in France (Campbell). I would have certainly not known my name to be so popular in a different country. Since I was born, I have been alien to knowledge of how I came to have my name, how popular it was, and what it meant because of accepting it without any thought. I never thought about how much my name represents who I am and how much it affects me. I wanted to figure out where my name came from; therefore, I found primary research useful by interviewing my mother about family surname history.

  • William Reiss Briggs Biography

    501 Words  | 3 Pages

    My birth certificate reads "William Reiss Briggs," a name assigned to me when I was a mere 22 inch, 6.9 pound infant who had no idea of the significance of what I was being called. I was not involved in the choosing of that name nor able to mutter even a syllable in attempt to pronounce it. It was only later on in my life that was told of the sentimental heritage in my name. William came from my grandfather and great-grandfather on my mother’s side, and Reiss was the family surname from which my father’s side originated, Although strongly defining in a historical sense, the names at first seemed to say nothing about my personality. That makes sense too.
