Personal Narrative: My Obituary
I completed this obituary during the first semester of my senior year. This was a school assignment. My World History teacher, Mrs.Cavilier, asked us to write two obituaries about ourselves. The first obituary was about myself if I were to pass away during my senior year. The second obituary was about myself if I were to pass away years from now. I chose the obituary that was years from now. I decided to choose it because that obituary sets my goals for myself. I am determined to be married and a Registered Nurse/Nurse Practitioner by 2025. Although it seems like it’s impossible, I’m always willing to take on a challenge. If I were to improve anything throughout this obituary, I would focus more on my inner self and the type of person I would’ve

    I always believed that there is life after death and that you need to live your life to the fullest because once is something taken from you then you will regret not having it. The commencement in 2005 by steve jobs moved many people. He says “ Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make big choices in life.” He had a really hard choice to make, either give up or keep pushing forward, but just like his says “ You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” Steve jobs had big visions and big ideas for this world. He speech spoke to many people and gave many people inspiration because he didn't give up and looked at the cup half full and not half empty.…

    Time is winding down and the past thirty nine weeks has been nothing short but amazing. It has been full of different emotions and feelings. From the stretching of the skin to the sudden movement I have never felt before. It was all a new experience, but the feeling was indescribable. After a restless night, the sunrise appeared before I knew it. The pain was unbearable, but after several hours and a couple of good pushes you were here. I was extremely exhausted, but the relief was absolutely amazing. At first sight I fell in love with you. Not for how you look, just for who you are. I never thought I could feel affection like this. What is this? Is this how it's assume to feel or even resemble? It's kind of insane how you, only one individual,…

    Today was the day. The big day. My election for Lieutenant Governor of Division 2B for Key Club, an international service club, was today. Fear and anxiety pricked my skin in rapid movements emanating from every pore. I rehearsed my speech for the fifth time that day. Upon arrival at the Fairfax Library, I urged myself to remain calm. I quickly scouted out the other girls who were present; one girl was dressed professionally with a folder in her hand. I knew that was my competition. The girl spoke eloquently and genially, she radiated enthusiasm and a certain warmth that I did not have. With every question that was asked, she answered with a smooth smile and high-pitched tone that was dripping with sincerity. I bristled inside; I had just been slapped. I was shrouded in a cloud of anxiety and anxiousness. Suddenly, I was dragged from my reverie.…

    I could make this essay as cliché as they come and talk about how being a single mother is so challenging, about how boot camp was so hard, or how a bad divorce changed my views on everything in my life… but instead, I’ll appreciate all of those things, and grasp my goals from a different challenge. That challenge is: loss. Some of my biggest goals were awknowledged through the death of my best friend, which in turn led me to this road at Paul Mitchell St. Louis. All of the above mentioned have shaped me, and for that I am grateful, however, the person who helped me realize my dreams of pursing art through cosmetology is no longer here, and with her is where my goals began, and my promise is fullfilled.…

    I thought completing Marine Corps boot camp was my most cherished accomplishment, but it merely stood in the shadows of my last deployment’s final work-up. Combat preparation is as stressful as you could imagine, and that stress doubles on leadership positions. D. H. Lawrence’s poem sounds like an alarm in my head when things get hard, “I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself”. You have a choice to make during hard times: wonder “why me” or rise above the situation.…

    Like I said before I had no interest in dying and I did not think the others did either. I immediately knew we were going to need to think on our feet. I told the three others to get up and that we were leaving. Tristan broke a chair and handed each one us a leg to use as a weapon. I remembered when I was walking to class earlier the library down stairs was dark and it looked like nobody was in there. I told the others that was where we were headed. We shut the door of our classroom behind us, and then propped a chair up underneath the handle locking Professor Voth and the two others in the classroom just to be on the safe side. I told them to keep an eye out and move fast. The only thing I knew about zombies was that they moved slow, and you…

    This is a tribute to a man that has always been and will always be my mentor. His name is Alan Dale Jacobson, he is my father.

I have known him my entire life as Uncle Al until I was 13 and he married my mother and our relationship went to a whole new level. He taught me many things like pride, honesty, to put my family above all things, and how to be an honorable man.…

    It was September 2 of 2015, the air was just a little chilly, and, for once, I was glad I was wearing my grey sweater. I stood outside of my mother’s Yukon waiting for my brothers to pile in the back. When they finally did, my mother drove us to the funeral home. The drive was long and quiet, it was as if someone had grabbed a television remote and muted us, so I decided I would listen to music to drown out the silence.…
