Personal Narrative-Edgewood High School

749 Words3 Pages

I’ve always wondered why people with a little or a lot of power tend to treat you unjustly. I’ve experienced many times when people with power treated me poorly. There were times in school with teachers, in school with principles and even out in public places. When I experienced these moments they made me feel like there were something wrong with me or I was different. Also, it made me feel like I was different from others… but not in a good way. I hate when people give me this certain video that I don’t belong.
Edgewood high school, 9th grade, it was my first period class when my teacher and my friend got into an argument. My teacher didn’t have any more patients for this student. Mostly everybody in class was finishing up on this study guide packet to help us on a test we were about to take. During class I showed my friend this paper I had. On my paper, it had poems on their which was dedicated to my aunt who had just passed away about a week ago. While she was looking at it my teacher came, snatched the paper, ripped it and threw it away. I understand that she had frustration with my friend, but she didn’t have to be disrespectful and rude. I could say “maybe she thought it …show more content…

Now at my last school I got into trouble. But it was just little stuff, nothing too major. I would think if you’re a principle, no matter how good or bad a student is you should still treat them with respect. At my old school, Edgewood high school my assistant principle always had this attitude with students. He was really rude with me. I would speak to him in the morning or just during the day and most of the time he doesn’t even speak back to me. When I tell him good morning or just a simple hi, how are you doing today he just will keep walking like I’m not even there and I don’t find that right. I find it to be very rude and disrespectful. Also, it kind of sucks because they teach us to not be rude and disrespectful, but they tend to do it

    Instead of hating bugs or spiders, I hated the outside as a child. Preferring to stay indoors, I spent my hours reading and drawing, dreading the moments my parents dragged me to a field to force sports down my throat. Basketball, soccer, volleyball; I tried all and loathed indiscriminately. Unfortunately, my father loved the outdoors, saving money for exotic vacations such as driving to the tip of Mexico instead of buying the latest iphone. Forced to go along with the rest of the family, I despised every minute of it.

    I have grown as an academic student in college and career readiness, as displayed through my English 101 class. This was my third college class on the campus of Los Angeles Mission College, so I thought I was prepared and ready. Yet in my English 101 class I had to come up with my own prompts for my essays and merely came into class to listen to lectures on the basics of English. This was the first class that the teacher did not give me the rules on what to do for the assignment, I had to come up with it myself. Professor Diaz-Cooper did not hand out How-To papers or grading rubrics - she expected us to know and acquire all this information on our own.

  • Personal Narrative: My Writing Assignment Of High School

    Satisfied with my work, I did the finishing touches on my portfolio and soon after realized my last writing assignment of high school is tomorrow. Although I have been waiting for this day for many years, it was sad to think that all my work has come to an end for high school. Coming into this class I was frightened from all the work that was assigned and was just hoping to finish with a “B” because I had never been a strong writer; however, half way through the semester I had seen a significant improvement in my writing skills and it is possible to finish with an “A”. I believe the reason it improved so much is because I time managed way more than have in previous years; in fact, most essays I had to write were written the night before they were do and I would just meet the length requirement without revising or editing.
