Narrative-The Single Story Community Club
Amidst the tall sky scrappers and plazas that surrounded and loomed over it, the single story community center looks, in spite of its irregular structure, positively delicate and graceful. It is no less busy than them; there is a double row of cars in front of it, and an even greater number of motorcycles. The sounds emerging from within mingle, albeit discordantly, with the mayhem outside.

Laughter. The excited shrieks of the children as they run about, colliding with everyone and everything. The hum of the voices of the adults, theear-piercing rock music from the teen zone

    The sound of people screaming on rides makes you want to go on the rides all the more. The rides clicking and clacking gives you a shiver of excitement when you hear them. Vroom blast in your ear and you see a roller coaster right above you. The jingling of food stands takes you to a state of mind that you will find that jingling stand and get something from it. The sound of people saying that ride was amazing! Makes you get in line for the ride they just got off of. While you are waiting in line the jingling gets closer to you and you see the cart, but you are in the middle of the line. The jingling taunts you until you get to the front of the line the lady on the intercom says fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the ride. You are off!

    I feel that I am qualified to be an officer because I was a member, Vice-President, and then President of my high school’s volunteer club (Interact Club). I went to a small, Christian private school, and the club was student-lead with minimal help from our two faculty sponsors. The Interact Club was my greatest achievement in high school. Before my Secretary, and then Vice President and I came into office, even at our small school, many students, teachers and faculty were unaware of what Interact was and what we did in the community. We brought a new aura, publicity, worked exclusively with our Head of School, designed brand new t-shirts, brought in a new executive board, financial sponsors, and hosted our school’s very first talent show where…

    For the past three years, I have been the Key Club class representative. Throughout my experience, I learned that leadership is essential in volunteer operations, whether providing food for the hungry on a small scale or raising money for people in need. My role as class representative revolved around my ability to attract and retain quality volunteers. I was responsible for delegating essential tasks to the volunteers in a fair, effective manner. As the class representative, I was initially a volunteer coordinator, one of my initiatives was to allow volunteers to choose which tasks they felt most comfortable with. I had to get to know the members and understand their limits and play on their strength .With that knowledge, I was able to identify…

    They thought it was funny, we actually became friends. The third guy just asked me why I loved him and I responded “because you're a beautiful human being”, he laughed and said nice to meet you. We also became friends. The girl that asked me why I told her I loved her said to me “before you say anything I’m not lesbian” I was really amused because I wasn’t flirting with her for her to think I actually liked her and loved her. I was the one feeling more awkward I have to admit. I told her it was a social experiment I was doing for my sociology class and apologized, she said “oh okay cool” and walked away. That was one of the most awkward situations I was put in throughout the experiment. When I broke the social norm with my professors it was…

    One hundred and fifteen feet in the air, all I could do was dangle. Lying on my stomach strapped in by only a harness and a belt, I watched as the ground slipped farther and farther away from me. I had been preparing for this for almost over an hour. With my father beside me, we braced ourselves for the drop. The Superman was supposed to be as fast as a rocket and was supposed to leave a heroic feeling pulsing through your veins.…

    I live in an area that has many needs and is desperate for inspirational leaders. City Heights is generally a high crime neighborhood riddled with gangs, drugs, and general violence. A prominent leader in my community that I have had the privilege of working under is Dante Dauz. He works very close with the local authorities and gangs to mediate peace and works to bring resolutions. He is a supervisor of the Alliance for Community Empowerment, which offers a program called UPAC (Union of Pan Asian Communities). The single most important activity I have participated has been working as a leader in this program. . This is the most important activity since hundreds of people were helped, mainly homeless and refugees.

    I have moved around quite a bit which means there have been many significant moments in my life, but one seems to stand out, It happened a few months after I moved to my sixth school, Parkers Prairie High School. While I was only in seventh grade, I was still considered a high-schooler because of the way the district functioned. This meant that I had harder classes and more homework, but it also meant that I could participate in high school clubs, so I became part of the PPHS Knowledge Bowl Group. A significant event in my life is when my team won a Knowledge Bowl Meet because I got out of school, I got to meet new friends, and it gave me a strong sense of accomplishment.…
