Personal Narrative: Where Is Here By Joyce Carol Oates

Six flags great america (1) When I walked into Six Flags I could hear the music from the carousel playing, and smell the popcorn, and nachos. The people there with us we 're Kara, Kathy, Lisa Jorgensen, Natalie Digllier, Copper, Payton Makena and their mom. Some of them asked me if I wanted to go on the ride called the Raging bull but I said no because I was scared and then went on a different ride instead. I had to choose to overcome my fear or not let fear control me. On the second day we were there.

The Terror of The Demon Lover There are several locations within The Demon Lover where imagery was used to set the tone of the story. Some of these include how the house was described, how Mrs. Drover was portrayed, and how the taxi gave off a false sense of security. The story has a very eerie tone and the depicts that extremely well. The imagery set the tone so well that you can almost hear the house creaking as Mrs. Drover walks through. While the entire story had very descriptive diction, there were a few locations where the imagery especially stood out.

I have never really liked roller coasters. Unfortunately, I have come to the conclusion that life is very much like one. The first and only time I rode a roller coaster, I was ten years old and anxiously excited. I lack the precaution to remove my glasses before boarding a silly mistake, especially considering the beast in question is called “The Corkscrew,” a monstrous structure that, as the name indicates, loops up, down and upside-down in a giant corkscrew. I am calm while boarding and as the tangle of gears beneath us clicks and groans.

Texas Giant Chaos I woke up feeling terrified that day, just the thought of riding on a roller coaster and the possibility of flying off made me shiver in fear. It would be my first time ever going to Six Flags, and knowing all of the 8th graders were going, I wouldn’t dare miss it for the world. Although my classmates would say that I looked quite thrilled about it, truth be told, inside I was screaming for help. Once we entered the premises I knew I had to figure out a plan: do not end up sitting in one of those crazy wild amusement park attractions. As everyone got off the bus, I joined my friends, who were ecstatic that we finally made it and were making plans on which rides they would get on first.

Aylmer wasn’t for sure what he was getting himself into because his mind stayed focused on his wife defect. The desire for perfection no only kills Georgiana, however it also ruins her husband. “Aylmer reached a profounder wisdom, he need not thus have flung away the happiness which would have woven his mortal life of the sesame texture with the celestial” the author stated, (Hawthorne 349). Georgina tiny mark is all he can see. It develops in Aylmer’s mind until the good sight of gorgeous Georgiana fade.

Special, the word I hated the most is now a word I love and what I am. I guess I always compared myself to others and I never looked deep into my simplest qualities. The things that make me special were always in me, but I just didn’t notice. It is similar to what happened with Dorothy. Dorothy was looking for a way to go back home, so she traveled all the way to the Emerald city.

We got there and they had a lot of roller coasters. At the time I had never been on a rollercoaster. I was pretty scared but I decided i would try it so just to get used to it so i found the second biggest rollercoaster in the park and got i n l9ine. Then once we got up front I wanted to turn back but my sister wouldn 't let me so i got on. We started to go up a big hill and then we rushed down into two loopty loops.

It was a pretty nerve racking experience, and the night before I stood up to the crack of dawn, preparing myself for the questions that might be thrown my way. I had already applied for two jobs that week and haven’t heard a thing. However, it didn’t bother me none because I was determined to get this job. I recall walking through the amusement park towards the office. I felt the emptiness of it; and then all at once I imagined the children joyful running from ride to ride and the hearing the soft humming of the circus carousel, even seeing myself as a child begging my mother one more time before it was time to go.

I had never attempted to ride a bike before so I was extremely nervous. My dad wanted to make sure I was prepared. On the day of my birthday, I was given safety gear first. Without any hesitation I told him thank you. I was excited to know I was going to see my new bike next.

When I woke up Christmas morning, I was beaming with excitement, but I was still groggy like a bear waking up from hibernation. Since I was so excited to open the other presents, I forgot that my parents had a surprise for me. When my parents revealed that they had made me a train table, I was ecstatic. All the other gifts I received were great, but the only thing on my mind was the table. I never thought my

She immediately started crying and I looked up and did not see her number nor my number, but ultimately I knew my number was not supposed to be up there that year. In the moment everything seemed as if all my hard work had been suddenly take from me, but on the car ride back to my home I was so incredibly thankful and blessed that I was given such an amazing opportunity. I knew then that I had to audition again. The whole process of trying out for Rangerettes helped me grow in ways I never knew possible. I am much more humble and I appreciate everything that’s given to me and never do I take a moment for granted.

Reid Kingsley. Both Maxes. And a couple of other kids said they were going to try to be there." August got bummed out when he found out a little amount was going to be at his birthday party out of all the people he invited. A couple of weeks after his birthday, halloween was up next and it was dress up at school.This year I 'm going to be Boba Fett: not Boba Fett the kid in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, but Boba Fett the man from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back .

First we got on a pony ride and my aunt and friend were on snapchat the whole ride taking snaps. Then we got of and I pretended to be batman. I pretended to fly and my aunt posted the snap on snapchat and sent the snap to my mom. After we got on goliath a very non scary ride (the ride seemed scary at first.) When I was in line, I was very anxious about going on the ride but at the same time i was a little scared.

The feeling of you waiting in the line for something, for a toy but this is not a toy. I was about to go scariest roller coaster in Michigan Shivering Timbers. We told our dad that we would meet him at Thunder Hawk. I felt like I was going to throw up, and Claire felt like she was going to have a good time. We got on and I wanted to get off.

She is ecstatic that she will not have a “powerful will bending her” (556) actions anymore and “her fancy [is] running riot along [the] days ahead of her” (556). Freedom is overcoming her thoughts and feelings. She cannot stop thinking about her future opportunities now that she does not have to seduce to her husband’s rules. Until, her husband entered into their home “a little travel-stained” (566) and stood “amazed at Josephine’s piercing cry” (556) while Richards’ “quick motion” (556) to block the couples view of each other was too late. It is true that her husband had been working, but he had not been anywhere near the accident.
