Who's To Blame?-Personal Narrative
I was not the victim
I was the one who needed help
He walked away without a scratch
He walked away with my innocence in his hand
I ran upstairs screaming
Denying the truth about what happened
He was a friend
I was his prey
He lured me to the basement his plan in mind
He told me I was asking for it
It was my fault
But it wasn’t. Right?
I was young
He was older he was too strong and heavy
I couldn't get him off top with his hand over my mouth
I kept screaming stop
He pick me up and bounced me up and down
I started shaking
I wanted to fall to the ground
I came downstairs later that night tears streaming gracefully down my cheeks burning my eyes
Looking down at my body shaking
I was aching to tell someone don't tell anyone he said

    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.

    Who am I? That has always been an essential question for as long as I can remember. I never really understood why we had to answer that question along the way, but I’m now a senior at SJPII and I still have no idea who I am. It really bothers me that for 16 years I still haven’t figured out who I am. Constantly going from class to class and making new friends I still can’t pin point who the “real” me is.…

    In fourth grade, I was given a homework assignment of the worst nature my nine-year-old brain could envision: an essay. My entire class erupted with sighs and groans as my teacher explained the assignment: interview someone you know and write a biography. I was stumped; I didn't think anyone in my family was interesting. I didn’t have an uncle that was a firefighter or cousin that was an astronaut. I had absolutely no idea who to write about. At dinner that night, my parents suggested I interview my grandfather. With no alternatives in mind, I unenthusiastically accepted their suggestion. The following Friday night, my parents drove me to my grandparents’ house with a pencil and a notebook, and I sat down with my grandfather as he told me the story of how he came to America.…

    A time when I experienced extreme failure was when I was in my sophomore year of high school. When I started the year, I had the mindset of, “This is going to be easy. I’m not going to sweat it.” Reason being, in my freshman year, I passed all my classes easily and I thought the next school year would be the same. I was in for a rude awakening by then. It was my first year starting an AP class and I heard stories that it was going to be easy if one paid attention in class. As the first semester went, it was a struggle already. I had easily underestimated the workload and found myself barely passing with a C. I have the type of personality where I put a lot of pressure on myself and stress out easily; as one can imagine, I was very hard on myself.…

    One thing that sets me apart from the other candidates applying to the University of California is my hard work. I have always been smaller than other kids my age. At 15 years old I was 4’ 10’’ and looked like I was eleven years old. Although this was an advantage at the airport, when I would begin to take off my shoes and the TSA Officer would look at me and say, “Don’t worry twelve and under can keep their shoes on.” I was often discredited for my size. Especially because I played volleyball, a sport known for its height. I constantly struggled to make a team I deserved to be on because people would see my height and automatically think I was not capable. Although my height often led me to feel discouraged and angry it eventually taught hard work.…

    School is a place where your teachers and peers should always be counting on you and lifting your spirits up, not a place where you are told you will fail. Failure is something that every person encounters in there life, but how they get there defines who they are. Not winning or losing but the path you took and how hard you worked in achieving your goals. If your start with the right foundation and push yourself to the limit, whether you win or lose does not define you as a person, or at least you shouldn’t allow it to, because I certainly don’t. Walking into my class everyday and being told I will not go to college or that I will not succeed can be a real downer, but you can’t let others tell you what you can or cannot do. You must push through people's judgements and not allow it to define you. At the end of the day, how you are as a person defines your future and if that is true, I know that no matter what I put my mind to I can get there in the best way because I work hard, because school and testing does not come easy to me. I have to work for every little thing I do because I am not a machine that can process and memorize information on the first try.…
