Personal Narrative: Our Hall Council
Our Hall Council hosted the Super Smash Bros tournament on November 3. I realized there was a resident that I’ve never seen before so I took the initiative to get to know him and learn more about him. We ended up talking for an hour about his major, his job, and I informed him about future programs. I also mentioned that the lobby was a great place to interact with residents. He seemed really interested about coming to the programs and I learned a lot about him. He even started to come downstairs a bit more after our first interaction. A week later, I saw him at Wal-Mart and invited him to eat brownies with RA Jordan, OA Edwin, and myself. Additionally, this was a great way to check up on him as well as introducing RA Jordan to him since this

    I’m happy with who I am today, just as everyone should be. But if I could change anything about myself, I’d want to have more motivation to do things. In the mornings before school I can barely get out of bed because I’m so tired and don’t want to go to school. I’m exceedingly intelligent but I don’t have any drive. I procrastinate on most of my work, and sometimes I just don’t want to do the work. Right now I’m rank 14 in my class but I could’ve been higher if I had any drive my freshman year. I don’t think about how my decisions now will impact me later and when I do, I don’t really care. I also don’t have much motivation to do things in sports activities. Last year I played volleyball and I never had that much playing time. Never being able…

    I walk into the dull atmosphere classroom, pictures of present and past high school baseball players stare back at me. The marker board covered in scribbles of math and assignments that will soon be issued to us by the teacher. One look at the teacher and you can tell he wasn’t in the best of health. Starting with his overweight physic to his white, pasty skin, almost a bit discolored in some areas. It was soon discovered early in the year that he suffered from a heart deficiency. Yet, having constant road blocks enter his path, he continues to teach and peruse his passion. I rather much enjoyed that class, and there was one month left till until school was out. Students start to file into class; among them is a familiar but unacquainted face, Dan. Dan and I knew each other but neither of us had taken the time to traditionally acquaint ourselves and really talk. Dan had short golden blonde hair, pale white skin, which was making his acne more visible. He was tall and lanky with a friendly smile and attitude. That day he finally introduces himself and we begin to talk. My first impressions were that he was sweet yet a bit odd, referring to many people and myself as ‘love’. As well came off as ambitious and carefree, after having snuck out of class multiple times and just leaving for the day. As summer dawned closer and sophomore year was coming to an end, me and Dans friendship grew and we exchanged numbers. Summer began, weeks pass and we talk from time to time. Till one day while texting I ask if he had any big plans for the rest of summer. The reply I got was not what I expected. He told me that he was due to have brain surgery in a month or so. And as well, that that wasn’t the worst part, not only is his condition fatal if he doesn’t receive proper treatment, but that if the operation is successful that a side effect is that he will lose all memory of the last 4years of his life. At this point in the conversation my mind was racing trying…

    I was in Mr. Ippolito’s group discussion. Which in itself was a little intimidating because he was one of the reasons I decided to do this, and I didn’t want to screw up. The first day of orientation he kind of scared me with his speech. I really have come to respect and look up to all of the residence coordinators but “Ippy” was my hall’s coordinator and he really made me feel like this place was “my home lower-case h.” We began in this meeting asking a variety of questions from questions about being a resident assistant to questions about Mr. Ippolito’s experiences as a coordinator and as a resident assistant. I personally asked about the bulletin boards, as far as the apartments went I really had no idea where they were I had never seen any when I was up there. I learned that there are a few places the biggest place being in the stairwells and that they’re electronic. To do our bulletin boards we’ll get a templet and we’ll submit our design to be put up. We asked as a group what was expected of us as resident assistants. We got told a great deal of information. We were told about the hours we’d need to “be on…

    I always keep this poem and picture in my wallet. I take it everywhere with me because it means quite a lot to me in two very different ways. One of those ways is because it holds sentimental value. When I was younger I learned to read very late in life and I was always so embarrassed of that. My father knew that I was struggling and bought me the book, Where the Sidewalk Ends. It is a book full of poems and little pictures written by Shel Silverstein. I remember opening the book to ta random page, and it was the page with this poem. I then remember my dad asking me to read it to him. I was so uncomfortable, even thought I was just going to be reading to my dad. He gave me some words of encouragement, and even thought I was not able to read…

    My mother, “Regina Hopkins,” has been a positive influence in my life. She has raised 6 kids all by herself as well as earned a Bachelor’s degree in nursing from a City College in Gainesville, Florida. My mother has been through pretty much everything a person can go through outside of war and was still able to be there and provide for all 6 of her kids. In high school, my mother wanted to play football and couldn't because she was a girl and back-in-the-day women were not allowed to play football with the guys. However, she remained strong by raising 6 kids and independently took care of all of us on her own. My mother has several qualities that I would love to develop. The first quality she has is balance; she certainly knows how to make…

    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.…

    When I came to this school, I was in the fifth grade. At first, I didn't like it at all. I got in trouble to much, and that was the main reason I didn't like it here. Through fifth grade I was not a good student, had bad grades, and had too many levels to count. By sixth grade, I was starting to mature and wasn't getting bad grades as often, but I was still getting in trouble. By seventh grade, I was getting good grades and barely got into trouble. I think the main reason for that is because of my teacher Mr. Finley. In my eighth grade year, I was what some people would call a perfect student. At least in the beginning of the year, that is. By the halfway point of the year, I was getting into trouble again and my…
