Personal Narrative: Sarah

128 Words1 Page

One girl in particular, Sarah, was extremely displeased with my arrival. I was unaware of this for the longest time until she made it very clear. Sarah had seemed friendly, she was very intelligent, and she was popular. I learned that Sarah was also extremely competitive and envious when others did better than her, and I learned it the hard way. It was when Mr. Addams handed back our math tests and I got a hundred while Sarah got a ninety- seven. I looked over at Sarah and smiled, trying to be amiable, but she glared at me, giving me a dirty look, and turned away. Sarah had a stolid face for a second then turned and whispered something to her friend causing them to break into laughter.
