Narrative Essay Ap Us History Test
The pounding headache that makes me want to squeeze my eyes shut comes back, along with the butterfly garden in my stomach. This isn’t just the normal stress anyone gets before an AP US History test, it’s ANXIETY. The cool icy water runs down my throat as I swallow the small white pill. Every morning is the same routine and every assignment causes the same tension. Even a small worksheet can create discomfort in my stomach, so just imagine a midterm or gut-wrenching seven-page essay. Even with extra time on tests, the question always sits in my brain: “will I have time to finish?” On the PSAT I didn’t and that worry always stays with me. I feel every bit of stress in my stomach and head. I have gone to doctor after doctor, chiropractor to

    One would think that purchasing your first home would be a very fascinating experience; after all it is one of the most major purchases of your entire life. In America, home ownership ties in with the American Dream and the spirit of working hard to one day earn through hard work a home with a white picket fence. My husband and I felt that it was time for us to reward ourselves for all the hard work we have been putting in over the years by purchasing our first home, which was well overdue. I quickly learned the process of purchasing your first home can be very frustrating and stressful. However, if you survive the home buying process the reward is priceless once you move into your “American Dream.”…

    Narrative Essay

    Most people rely on the security and care of others to provide for their loved ones when they put them in a nursing home. What they don’t realize is how much neglect goes on to the people they care most about. Residents are at risk of being abused by their caretakers but they are also at risk of being restrained, which may lead to a form of abuse. At Southwestern Nursing Home I have witnessed forms of neglect and abuse. Nursing homes are meant to be a place for security for the elderly to be cared for in their golden years, and it has become an unpleasant experience for senior citizens being subjected to acts of abuse and neglect.…

    Narrative Essay For Honor College

    My life’s mantra is “think beyond”. From elementary through high school, I pushed my limits in everything from academics and service to arts and athletics. As a child, my parents kept me out of my comfort zone so frequently that it eventually became natural to do it on my own. Through trial and error, I eventually managed to balance a schedule that ensured I keep up my GPA and maintain a solid five hours of community service a week while simultaneously waking up for five a.m. swim practices and practicing piano for at least an hour a day. Time can only move forward, so I believe that I should spend every waking moment doing something that enhances my life. Because of this, I believe I would bring an aura of diligence and positivity to the Honors College community that hopefully energizes anyone around me.…

    English 101 Narrative Essay

    Sight being one of the most important senses a person has and one of the strongest form of communication that a person will probably use. So, it’s no wonder that a person will judge another person within the first thirty seconds of laying eyes upon them. Unfortunately, being judged by your appearance is by no means an effective way of determining what a person is like on the inside. Although, almost everyone will be judge like this daily by people they encounter throughout the day. It’s amazing how more times than not, it is a negative judging and not something positive about a person. Everyone should remember the old proverbial saying, never judge a book by its cover, never judge another person by their appearance. Because it isn’t a reliable criterion for assessing the quality of a person’s character that lies within them. Unfortunately, everyday people are wrongly judged because they are judged by the first impression someone has formed based on their appearance.…

    Narrative Essay

    I am an average 16 year who just can’t wait to grow up and face the real world and not have to worry about any rules or restrictions. On January 12th, 1996, my parents named me Asmaa, so I have to stick with that name for the rest of my life. Personally, I like the name because it’s the name of a very great person; more of a hero in Islam. Names in my family go with a pattern; but this only goes for girls. The pattern is the double ‘A’ at the end of the name. Shaymaa is the leader of the tribe yet she doesn’t control any of us. Next in line are me and my twin sister Alyaa. We are the decision makers in the household, everyone takes our opinion before doing anything or taking any steps .I would like to mention that I am the older twin; but that doesn’t really help me in anyway because she is treated as the ‘wiser one’. I am known as the smiley easy going twin and Alyaa is known as the serious harsher twin. There are 5 years between Omar and me, which makes me the mature older sister that he could come to for advice. Esraa is the little seven year old diva of the house. She likes to imitate models and celebrities and act like she rules the planet. The sixth child is five year old Tarek who just entered grade one this September. He believes that the world can’t survive without superheroes. Last but certainly not least is my life and my smile, the little flower of the house; Alaa. She is a year and 3 months old. In my mind; she completes the package very well. We kids call ourselves The Power of Seven. We’re 5 girls against 2 guys. Fortunately for us girls, we gang up against the guys and we always get what we want. The girls rule the house because they know how to fight for what they want, they know how to put up a good argument, and plus they’re the majority. Speaking of majority, I am two years away from being an official adult and getting the right to vote; a year and 4 months and day to be exact. I really want…

    What if everything you knew and were used to, such as friends, family and way of life, suddenly changed? This happened to me when my family moved to Puerto Rico for the first time. All the things I was used to in my hometown of Boston, Massachusetts, all the people I knew suddenly changed overnight. At first I didn’t think it was going to be that different. But I soon found out that there were so many differences, big and small.…

    As Bernard M. Baruch once said, “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.” I was unaware that my opinion of myself was more meaningful than my peer’s opinion. I had a rough time figuring out who I was and who I wanted to be in my first few years of high school. The first chance I got to poke the popular bubble was taken, giving me one shot to embed myself into an exotic, unknown social group. What I didn’t know was that this social group made me feel like an outsider.…

    Life is an opportunity. It is a cycle of most valuable and treasured memories that even a ninety year old and a crippled person will not be able to erase and forget. It is an endless road that is full of laughter, sweat, tearful and most of all loneliness. The land was extremely barren for my eyes. The blue angry waves of the sea made me feel so anxious to paddle my daddy’s canoe to collect sea urchins and sea cucumbers, that I could sell to earn a little bit of money to feed my firstborn three months old baby.…

    I woke up in the middle of the night with a sweat all over my face. “Oh, it is such a horrible nightmare I had.” I said to myself. I lighted the candle in my room; the small frame gave me a warmer atmosphere; so I felt a lot better. I tried to continue my sleeping but I had a strong sense that there is something wrong. And what made me frighten until my heart beat faster was my sense is never lie to the reality. Nevertheless, I felt asleep again with my doubtful mind. Three hours later, the phone rang. It is irregularly for receiving a call, especially in the morning. A widow and owner of a small farmhouse like me did not give away my home number to many people. I was hesitating, but deep down I knew that the call needed to be pick up, so I did. Unexpectedly, the man’s voice introduced himself as a police from investigation department. I needed to prepare myself for their arrival at my estate; they wanted to ask me a few questions about the mysterious murder which happened to my closest neighborhood.…
