Personal Narrative: Not Passing
Honestly, I didn’t think I would make it this far. I didn’t think I would be up at 11 PM answering an insight question that asks me about me. I didn’t think that I would be sitting at a lunch table with my friends, eating and cracking jokes. I didn’t think I would sit down at the dining table singing happy birthday to my younger brothers and sister. I’ve struggled with depression for so long that it constantly felt like there was no point in fighting back. I’ve dealt with pressure and not wanting to look a certain way because I wanted people to think I was ‘cool’ or ‘good enough.” I’ve sat down in class and watched my grades dance on the edge of the Not Passing (they call it an ‘NP’ at our school and it hurts to say it) line. I constantly

Personal Narrative: What I Learned In High School
1046 Words | 5 PagesIf someone were to ask me what I learned in high school, I could say a lot of things. I could talk about my Lifespan Development class and how I learned a lot about babies and prenatal care, and how much it helped me when my sister got pregnant and had questions that I always knew the answer to. I could talk about how much it helped me to learn how to multiply percentages in Algebra, because now when I go grocery shopping, I can add tax and know exactly how much money I’m spending before I even get to the register. I could even talk about how after taking a field trip with my Family Studies class, I realized that I wanted to be a kindergarten teacher. These are some of the things I learned in high school that prepared me for life or my next step in education.

The sun was just setting and there were varieties of pinks, oranges, yellows, and reds that all faded down to where the sun was hiding behind the Empire State Building. Bright lights from Jumbo Screen ads, and lights from windows shined all around the city, they all danced above.

Personal Narrative
1114 Words | 5 PagesI had moved from my father’s house at an early age to begin my own family with big ambitions and even bigger dreams. At the time, I had every intention of slaying dragons and returning as the conquering hero with ticker tape parade and cheering fans. What I did not know at that time was how much of an everyday adversary the world could be and how many temptations and poor choices would be available on almost a daily basis. Looking back I now understand what my father had tried to tell me with a simple universal truth, “Water takes the shape of its container.” On the flight home, I had stared out the small rectangle window into the seemingly endless blue sky punctuated by sparse cotton sculptures which changed with the wisps of the wind
