Personal Narrative-Secre Secret Beach

Songs can connect with how we feel and our experiences. Music has been a major part of my life ever since I was just a toddler. For me music has helped me express what I am feeling and who I am as a person. My therapy has been music, it has helped me through almost every problem I have faced. With listening to the song lyrics, we can get a true understanding of what the artist is trying to tell us.

Most young adults in the United States cannot wait to turn 21, so they can drink alcohol, but not this girl. I was from a smaller community and rarely ventured farther than the rusted barb wire fences of my families ranch. However, shortly after my 21st birthday life began to change. Applications got submitted, then came interviews, tests and more interviews. “You’re hired” said a voice on the other end of the phone. That had not told me much only where to show up, when, and how to dress. Basic Academy, just by the name I knew it would be a lot of work. One month later after passing more tests, learning the rules, more on dress, and expectations, they said I am ready to work in the largest prison in the state.

I have been waiting since the start of summer for this day, the day to go against Topeka West the school that have been talking stuff for the longest. There was so much hype about this game and it was finally here, when the bell ringed at the end of the day i rushed out of class and got on the bus to head over to chandler our practice field. When we got there we all the football players loaded off the bus and when we got off there was a table of chips,water,gatorade,PB & J and fruit snacks so we didn’t play on an empty stomach. After we ate and got ready coach talk to us for a little bit and then we got on the bus to head to Hummer sports park, it was a loud bus but i don 't think coach cared because we was hype going to play t-west. Topeka high and Topeka west have been rivals for ever in almost every sport but mainly football. So we got drop off by our bus driver at Hummer sports park.We go in the locker room to get dress to go do our stretches so we don’t pull anything and to get ready for our game so

As raising a ranch with cows, chickens, pigs ects animals it is a hassel. Having my husband telling me to always get up early to have him food ready by when he awakes. Having to clean the ranch and feeding the animals. I cant sleep in if I do my husband turns into an ogar and I know whats coming for me a beating. I do as he pleases I wake up every morning at 5 am before the sun comes up but I dont due my choars. I leave the house and walk to my neighbors house. As she leaves to do some shopping I watch her kids the ones I wasnt able to give my husband I question my self and maybe that is why he treats me the way he does.

Exhausted, I'm out of energy. As i arrive home, i get out of my mother's car. Still in my dirty, worn out work uniform with shoes that have too many holes in them. Walking through the front door of the place we just moved into. My room, dirty as can be with clothes, makeup, shoes cluttered everywhere. Changing quickly into some night clothes, lay down closing my eyes. Then BAM, it hits me.

I recall going there with my family, eating lunch, playing with other kids, and swimming. I remember later going to the beach with my friends, gossiping, talking about boys and school. I then think back to last summer when I was by myself and had the best time. It is only in the past few years that I feel like I’ve truly appreciated Long Beach.

It is a place that I can sit and look out into nowhere; sometimes thinking about things, sometimes not. I can now relate this feeling to Thoreau’s “Walking” piece. He finds it liberating to travel without a destination and I find it liberating to think without a specific topic or

While walking down the overcrowded street near my apartment, I was gratefully showing off my beautiful and smart daughter, Waverly. As a mother of a chess prodigy, I could gladly say that I am proud. In every single shop I would exclaim “This is my daughter Waverly!” and the crowd would stop to reply with a surprising gasp. I really did treat her like she was my princess, but she didn’t seem to care.
