Personal Narrative: Moving To Houston
I am a godparent of an 8-year-old little girl. Before I moved to Houston our bond was tight and still is even though we are miles away. Every day we talk or Skype on the phone. When she has homework that she does not understand she will Skype me and we will do her homework together. Every summer for two weeks she comes to see me or I will go home to see her. As much as I can, I step in and provide when her mother needs help. As she gets older I am sure our connection will continue to grow.

    Personal Narrative: Moving To North Carolina

    We finally moved to North Carolina and I was devastated. I felt like I had to leave behind all of the friends I had just started formulating deeper bonds with. I felt like I had to start over from scratch with making friends and I missed Khalif; and finding out that he contacted me the night before we moved and I missed his call, didn't make things any easier. I never told him I was moving when I found out. I figured since we wasn’t together anymore, why bother. He found out my last day of school because my best friend and I were crying, and another student went back and told him. He approached me before the day was over, and wanted to know why I didn’t tell him I was moving. After we talked, he gave me a hug. I didn’t expect him to try to contact me that night. I didn’t find out he had called until my family and I were well in NC and I checked the caller ID box.…

    Personal Narrative: Moving To NC

    Before I moved to NC , I lived out west. The demographic and food delicacies are far different than here in the south. My taste aversion was fully loaded hot dog with chili and slaw. I never heard of that type of combination on a hot dog. I was raised eating a hot dog with just ketchup, mustard, relish and sometimes onions. I have lived in NC for about 23 years. I finally tried eating a hot dog Carolina style and love it. Since I have gluten allergy, I skip the bun and still eat it that way.…

    Personal Narrative: Moving To Michigan

    The first place I would pick to move to is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Everyone forgets about this part of Michigan, half of the time it isn’t on the weather maps on the news. I think it would still be hard because I would have to pick up my life and transfer it to another world. At this point I understand that I would have to give up the luxuries I love so much. I would keep my phone but I cannot take my entire bedroom, my car, or my school with me. I know a lot of my family would stay put. They would suffer through it because they wouldn’t believe it until it was actually happening. My mother’s side of the family is very old fashioned and will not leave their ground because they have already been here so long and have worked so hard.…

    Personal Narrative: Moving To Colorado

    The holidays are fast approaching and I can't believe it. The leaves have changed colors and are falling rapidly off the trees. It seems like I looked and blinked and an entire year just just flew by, and my now little girl is not so little anymore. I've been going through photos of past Christmases and I can see the growth that has taken place throughout the year. As most of you know, I grew up in the Caribbean and I never experienced snow until we moved to the United States. Christmas for us meant cotton dresses and tees and we were even able to wear shorts as well, because it was summer all year round. Now fast forward to today, and I have children of my own and they need different wardrobes for each season including the holidays. The…

    Personal Narrative: Moving Away From Ohio

    I just moved here and I am starting to regret my decision of moving here from Ohio and the big problem is my kids were just starting school. It’s terrifying all because this stupid lot a crossed the street that is full of trash that smells terrible all the time like something died. I’ve only lived here for about a month and my apartment stinks like a wet dog and I can’t get rid of it. Most of the time I grab my Febreze and use the whole can but it only smells like roses for about an hour. So the next day I decided to do something about it because it was starting to drive my family crazy.…

    What was a lifetime ago, my husband and I lost our home to a massive area-flood in the Houston area. Around midnight, we walked to higher ground for safety because we were wading in water waist deep. We left our home carrying our son, our dog, and one small bag of diapers wondering what tomorrow would hold for us. Through this life-changing event, my husband and I learned to move pride aside to humbly accept the gifts of…

    Narrative Essay About Living In Texas

    Living in Texas most of my life I was no stranger to Americans who either didn’t speak English at all or whose first language wasn’t English. As I interacted with people, mostly from Mexico, I had a hard time understanding why they didn’t want to speak English . Although I’m ashamed to say it, I often viewed these people as less educated and meek. A statement that Ive heard all to often is that people who don’t speak English should learn our language or leave America. However, I’ve never considered myself racist or close minded, despite the fact that I often felt frustrated and uncomfortable while trying to interact with people whose first language wasn’t English. Being on the other side of this situation forever changed…

    Personal Narrative: My Journey To New Orleans

    I saw New Orleans for the first time, on spring break with my mother, while visiting my aunt. I was excited to go because Lil Wayne, my favorite rapper, was from there. We stayed in the Lower Garden District, a very different place from Weezy’s Hollygrove. I learned how to navigate the French Quarter, captivated by the skinny colorful houses decorated with beads, the warm air in my face gave me a sense of well being. The vegetation is so lush in New Orleans and so different than my home in Brooklyn. I heard about Tulane on that trip and it has been my first choice ever since. It has become my refrain when anyone asks where I want to go to college.…

    Personal Narrative: My Trip To The City Of New Orleans

    As a consequence of living in a homogeneous area for my entire life, I crave change. My intrigue for the city of New Orleans began with The Princess and the Frog, the Disney movie from which the previous lyrics originate from. My nine year old self was drawn in by the representation of African Americans in mainstream media, however I left with the awareness of a vastly different culture. The diverse people, unique food, extravagant festivals, and rambunctious rhythms transformed my outlook on societal divisions. The intermingling of cultures was a foreign concept to me, I was surprised to find a community unionizing solely for the purpose of supporting a city. However, from that moment I desired a change in atmosphere, one that possessed these newfound qualities. This was then compounded with learning about the birth of jazz in my 8th grade music class. Reminiscing on the lesson, I remember jazz staples such as Buddy Bolden, Louis Armstrong, and King…
