Personal Narrative-The Other Woman
The Other Woman(s) 2390 East Huntsville Road, I was 5 years old and use to my dad never being around always working until 3 am at his work. I don't remember waking up with my dad being home, but that had been life since I can remember. What I do remember is that I consider it the worst day of my life. I was 6 years old at the time, I got picked up from school by my mother who had a very cold look on her face the car ride home, but I didn’t think much of it. She was an adult and adults got upset easily. When we pulled into the drive I got out and I was excited to share my day with her, today for me was like every other day. But something was different, my father was home. My dad and mom asked me to come into their room for a minute, the …show more content…
That was a great way to get labeled the emotionally unstable girl at a very young age. 1555 West Warehouse Drive, was where my dad had moved to, which was his metal fabrication shop. He built a second story and created an apartment out of it, but it was not a home. I had got into the routine of going to stay the night at my dad's on tuesdays and fridays. I must say that I became exceptional at packing an overnight bag. There was this woman Jane who shared my dads shop, she would hold her art classes there. I really enjoyed being around Jane. She had amazing talent and was always complementing me on my art when it was horrible. My father sat me down one day and I found out that she was my soon to be step mom. After this information was given me I wanted to ask questions. The questions were only directed to my counselor, and of course she would never have the answers I was looking for. I decided that I wasn’t going to mention the divorce to my mom because that would just make her cry. I eventually decided to just live with what I knew and went on living the most normal life I could. Throughout the years I had gotten use to the idea of Jane always being around. 5000 Finger Road, was where my dad and

    I remember the night my dad left like it was yesterday, and I don’t think I will ever forget. I don’t remember what exactly it was that made him so mad but I’m sure my sister and I were fighting like sisters do. My only really vivid memory of that night was my dad hitting me so hard he left bruise marks on my backside. I could hear my mom and dad fighting so I knew my mom saved me again. Then my dad got really mad at her and he grabbed her by the shoulders and shoved her into the pantry door so hard that both my mom and the pantry door came crashing to the floor. When I got up for school the next morning my dad was gone. Some children aren’t as lucky though and Child Protective Services has to remove them from a bad situation.…

Yes I saw those videos of the ice bridge collapsing , it must have been amazing to be there hearing all the noises of the ice craking and the thunderous sound of it falling into the lake, you wouldn't want to be in a fishing boat there when that crashed. Not looking forward to this saturday without the 60's show, and it will be sad to loose the people that can't make the sunday slot. I'll post this bit before it crashes again.…

    Language has played a big role in making my life successful. As senior year was ending I had a major life changing decision. I was unsure whether to pursue my passion of baseball in California, or to hang up my cleats for the last time on a high note. Although this was not a life or death decision, It was still a decision that was still near and dear to my heart. After going to several people for help and many sleepless nights, I still felt helpless. I finally came to the conclusion after hearing "The Babe" in the movie Sandlot tell Benny Rodriguez, "Everybody gets one chance to do something great. Most people never take the chance, either because they're too scared, or they don't recognize it when it spits on their shoes." that’s when I decide…

    There has been many cases in which I have helped an outsider feel welcome. One time in particular is when I played tag with this little boy at church since he was new and no one else played with him. Originally, I was outside eating candy and talking to my friends at church. I noticed that this little boy was standing all alone watching all the other little kids play without him. I thought that maybe he was upset so I went over to him and asked if he wanted the rest of my gummy worms. He seemed nervous at first, but eventually he started talking to me. I learned that he was five years old and he was visiting his grandparents for the weekend. His older brother was outside playing basketball with some of the other older boys at the church, and…

    YO LET ME FIND THIS GIRL. I'm sorry I know it's wrong to be aggressive with things but it's also wrong to allow for things like this to just slide. ANYONE who knows me and my family especially, me and my sister, knows damn well this would not slide. If I ever saw this being done to Derek, so help the person that does it because I promise nothing would restrict me from defending him. What is wrong with people? You see something different than you and you are that threatened you feel the need to take dominance over it? That's what's wrong with this world. We see something different and we automatically feel the need to make it feel weak so we feel we have control. That's pathetic. THIS, This is pathetic. This girl is pathetic, the person videoing…
