Personal Narrative: How School Has Affected My Life
School has always been a favorite of mine. Some people might think that it’s like a prison, but to me it’s a chance to work hard and have fun with my friends. Since first grade with Mrs. Sutherland to eighth grade with Mrs. Orlikowski I have always strived to be better in class or do the best that I can. Throughout the years there have been a lot of experiences in school that have affected my life. One of the first events was First Communion with Mrs. Babb that started my journey with God. The next experience that I had was our trip to Lansing and seeing our state’s capital and history. Next, I visited the Springhill Camp in fifth grade with our class for three days. The next year I will never forget was when I went to Blandford school

    Personal Narrative: My High School Career

    The reason my academics aren’t going well as you or I would like is because of the several family issues I’ve had to face during my high school career. It began my Sophomore year, I found out my mom needed surgery in her arm so the chances of her cancer spreading would be reduced. I was under a great deal of stress worrying about my mother, taking care of my four siblings making sure they knew everything was going to be okay, even though I wasn’t sure myself. It was all up to me; while my other brother worked to help with bills, my mom being in the hospital, and my dad working. Taking care of my siblings consisted of cooking, homework, cleaning, nightly routine, and putting them to bed. When the work was done it would be around 10 o'clock. It was already tough to buckle down and focus on homework without all the stress. With all this my first semester grade was less than great.…

    Personal Narrative: My Educational History

    Before talking about my history, I have to say that my ancestral history is what prejudiced in my values as a good human being.

The American cities included in my history are Rocky River and Lakewood. Those two cities are located in Ohio. All my ancestors were born and lived in India. My history will include 3 generations.…

    Personal Narrative: My Failure Of School

    Failure is the state of not meeting an objective, and is normal for people to face throughout there life. I can speak on experience an event that had happened this past summer. After finals when my school had sent out final report cards, it was sad to see that my final average in my US History course did not meet the requirements to continue to the next grade. From there I had two options: to go to summer school and pass so that I may continue school at the academy or transfer schools and repeat my junior year of high school. With these two options I decided that it would be best to go to summer school and put all I had into the class so that I may pass. Sadly this failure had affected my life more than expected. I could no longer take part…

    Bell Hooks: A Literary Analysis

    Before I was old enough to comprehend the impact that school would have on my behaviors and habits, I thought of school as a wonderful place to play with my friends and read stories filled with thousands of different adventures. Thinking back, those early days were the beginnings of the shaping of my personality. I was able to think for myself and enjoyed being able to present my true self in my writing, as I was a shy and awkward child. In my multiple stories that I wrote, I almost…

    For school, the thing that has changed was my grades have improved so that I was able to get principal's list.

    Personal Narrative: How College Changed My Life

    It was the morning of move in day. I said goodbye to my home and headed out. I passed the local shopping market and my high school where I enjoyed a fun four years. As I headed to Norman I realized I was leaving everything I had ever known. All my life has consisted of living in the same house, going to school with the same kids, and going to the same supermarkets and restaurants. While I’d like to say I have developed a good idea of the world around me by visiting so many cities around the United States, in reality the only world I’ve ever known is the same one I have spent my whole life in. I have loved growing up in Northwest Oklahoma City with the friends that have helped shaped me into who I am today, however I relished the opportunity…

Four years ago my daughter graduated high school and I was unable to attend because of my military obligation of being deployed overseas. On the day of the graduation I contacted my family via Skype and after speaking to my wife and other children my eldest daughter finally sat in front of the computer so I can…

    Personal Narrative: My Middle School Experience

    I was the kind of guy who always strove in order to get the highest grades but yet hadn’t decided what to do in the future. I wasn’t worried, I knew someday I would find something in what I was good at. I got to live with that thought for some time until I got to attend middle school, where I stopped worrying about my grades and managed only to pass the subjects. I spent most of my time sleeping due to the frustration of not knowing what to do in the future. Most of my middle school experience was tasteless. I hadn’t friends at all, and teachers used to discourage their students about their future. “You're not going to college, you’ll not be able to do it because you’re poor” used to say, Mrs. Vazquez, the math teacher who instead of giving her class, talked on how much his son had accomplished in college and how we would not be able to attend. That was about to change.…

    Personal Narrative: Balancing School And Work

    “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” (Lao Tzu). My journey and current academic goal is to be an accountant. Fortunately, I have been able to live at home and work part time while taking classes at Northern Virginia Community College (NVCC). Balancing school and work has been both challenging and rewarding. Working has enabled me to receive a paycheck, become more confident, gain more independence, and exhibit exceptional time management skills. Attending NVCC has given me the academic courses, strength and knowledge needed to propel me on to my future goals. Both school and work together has made it difficult to execute my best in school. This school year I made the decision that I could no longer work part time…

    Personal Narrative: My Transition To High School

    High school is one of the biggest transitions in a person's early life. You go from being at the top in your school to the bottom. For me, it was very hard to adjust to this change. On my first day of high school, I walked into first period so nervous I thought I was going to get sick. This is much like what happened during my transition into middle school. On the first day at Mazzuchelli, right before the first class began, I threw up all over the floor of the classroom. I’m not a big fan of change. To make matters worse, the first week of high school was outrageously hot. The combination of the heat and my nerves made me sweat uncontrollably. At the time, I felt very self conscious of sweating during class. As bad as these first few days…
