Personal Narrative: A Horror Story
As Ponyboy and I walked into the park, I knew something bad was about to happen. I could just feel it. My stomach was in knots and I just wanted to go home into my warm bed and just sleep. But I knew that wasn't going to happen, not right now. I knew I was right when the Socs came towards us with their blue mustang and their loud obnoxious voices. They got out of the car and started staggering towards us. They were drunk and looked terrible. We had two options run away or fight back. I was leaning towards the first one but sadly I knew that wasn't going to happen when I saw we were surrounded by five drunk Socs. They wanted to torture us, not only that but kill us, they wanted to get their sweet revenge on us. They grabbed Ponyboy and stated

    Personal Narrative: The Lockness Swimming Chair Monster

    But I thank God because I could’ve been dead. I make my gourmet 5-star dry ramen noodle breakfast before preparing my plan. I look threw the window to see the waters stained with blood. I cringe at the thought of these families who’s last names won’t continue generations, the widows with their chirldren, that 7 year old girl. Now I’m angry and determined to destroy the LSCM and send it down the pits of HELL. My plan is finally complete and ready to be executed the next day. I go to sleep, M-16 in hand, praying I survive another night. The next morning I skip breakfast as I am too anxious to finally kill this terrorizing monster once and for all. I place the C4 and grenades in their places. We’re about to have a pyro show. I leave the house and swim to a distance where I can begin the plan. Dusk arrives and I distinctively hear the deep growl of the LSCM. I hear screams in the near distance and prepare my self for it is close. I look over the horizon to see the LSCM in the distance. Its time. I begin frantically waving my arms and yelling in order to get the attention of the LSCM. In the back of my mind I think theirs always the possiblility of this plan not working but then again failure isnt an option. Im a soldier and soldiers never quit. The LSCM sees me and immediatley seeks satisfaction of its hunger. As it charges toward me, I take a deep breath and swim underwater and swim swiftly towards the front door of the house. The LSCM is a couple hundred feet away from me but its moving fast. I race up to the attic door where I anticipate the LSCM to follow me. I grab the handle to push threw but it wouldn’t budge. I used all my strength to no avail and that’s when I relized that I set the rest of C4 right on top of the door. I couldn’t even be mad at myself because the LSCM just charged threw the house and headed right for me. With two seconds to spare, I strategically guided his momentum towards the…

    Personal Narrative: The Key

    In chapter 12, the key event to me was when Claudia and Finn talked to each other through the keys. I felt many emotions when reading their interaction one of them being happy. I felt happy when they talked to each other because it was a turning point in the story in my opinion. I also felt surprised because at first, I thought by having two keys, there would be a lock that would need both keys to hear and speak to each other. I also felt confused by the way they conversed; How could they now hear each other but not before. I think by having one key being touched, the other key can hear because on page 153 Claudia says she breathed and rubbed on the key making it warm and on page 154 Finn says when he touches the key it's warm.I like the way the author wrote the scene from both perspectives, it gave us the readers a clearer understanding of how both Finn and Claudia felt. I also like how the author described the way both keys affect each other and have a "key" connection.…

    Personal Narrative: A Cruel World

    My mother, sister, and I were driving down Highway 124 on a hot July day when my mom screamed and slammed on the breaks. Fear rushed through our bodies. Outside the car window, a short young African American man was launched into the air. As he came down, a loud boom sounded as his body helplessly rolled off the hood of the faint green Toyota Corolla in front of us. The man lay motionless in the road while we waited for what seemed like hours for the driver to exit the car. His red shirt and gym shorts were ripped. The driver of the opposing car threw the vehicle in reverse in a spasmodic action in an attempt to end the man’s life. The injured man made an effort to crawl onto the Wendy’s sidewalk, forcing his body up on the curb to evade the car. The driver drove up onto the curb and blew its tire, just barely missing the wounded man. Realizing the driver would stop at nothing, my mother drove her white suburban in front of the car, blocking the violent perpetrator from doing any further damage.…

    Personal Narrative: A Lesson Before Dying

    “We all stray from time to time….and when you do, OWN IT! If you deny it….you are giving up control again.” This can teach a lesson to people struggling with drugs and alcohol. If you deny that you have a problem, you will continue to let these things control your life, but if you own up to it, you can help yourself or get help from others. The quote, from the “I don’t know the Bible…” paragraph, “‘Well done, my good and faithful servant,”’ reflects what I believe in and what I have learned. Growing up I heard many people tell me, “God first, others second, and yourself last.” First of all, these two quotes are telling me to live a faithful life by putting God first. Also, to put others before me and serve them just like Jesus did.…
