Personal Narrative: I Am Gay

139 Words1 Page

February 29, 2016 is when my best friend Cristal and I went to Walmart shopping center to do a little grocery shopping. As we were getting out the car and heading in, we noticed some employees on the side of the building that were taking a break, and these employees were men. As we continued to walk in, they started yelling “Hey ma, wassup” and us ignoring them, we had no clue that one of the guys were going to run up behind us. He tapped me on my shoulders and once again was like “Hey ma, wassup” and me being who I am I turned around and was like I am gay and this is my girlfriend please leave us alone. He instantly turned around while saying “oh my bad shawty” and we went on about our day.

  • Personal Narrative: My Status As A Minority

    399 Words  | 2 Pages

    The diversity that may be found all around the world and in our very community has always fascinated me. I am aware that it is a widely held belief that being a minority is considered a disadvantage in various aspects and I would disagree with this. Diversity and culture is a two-way street- as a community, whether that be society as a whole or simply a freshman class, we have the potential to be able to learn from each other. I believe that my status as an underrepresented minority has shaped me into the person I am today. Despite moving to the United States at a young age and being a first-generation college student , I am grateful for the privilege to be able to further my education at the University of Utah.
