Personal Narrative: Surviving
The time I Met My BFF

4 years ago I was at Volleyball we we're doing a drill called Ping-Pong. So it is kind of like real Ping-Pong besides the point that you are the paddle. So we we're playing it, having fun, and then. It happened. I went diving for the ball. Me and Lauren we're only ones on my team left. I was trying to save them. And then I fell. My foot and leg fell twisted at 100%. But that's not the worst part. Lauren did not even see that it happened so she kept playing. She by accident stepped on my ankle making the pain ache in my head. It felt like my ankle was being stabbed. When my friend Pene went to go get ice they all kept playing because I did not want them to quit playing because I was hurt. When Pene came back with the

    Personal Narrative: The All-Star Team

    I could play both sides of the field so it didn’t matter to me which position I played. While we were in practice I ended up getting hurt and injuring my leg. While I was making a tackle, one of my teammates stepped on the bottom half of my leg, right under my calf. I couldn’t practice for like two days due to the injury but I ended up coming back but I could still feel the effects of what had happen. Everything was all good until somebody ended up stepping on the same exact leg and this time it hurt worse than ever. I limped over to the sideline and fell on my back in pure agony. The pain was excruciating. My coaches ran over to where I was and checked on me, I told them what had happen and they just told me to get up and try to walk on it. It hurt at first but I eventually fought through it and got back on the…

    Personal Narrative: The Key

    In chapter 12, the key event to me was when Claudia and Finn talked to each other through the keys. I felt many emotions when reading their interaction one of them being happy. I felt happy when they talked to each other because it was a turning point in the story in my opinion. I also felt surprised because at first, I thought by having two keys, there would be a lock that would need both keys to hear and speak to each other. I also felt confused by the way they conversed; How could they now hear each other but not before. I think by having one key being touched, the other key can hear because on page 153 Claudia says she breathed and rubbed on the key making it warm and on page 154 Finn says when he touches the key it's warm.I like the way the author wrote the scene from both perspectives, it gave us the readers a clearer understanding of how both Finn and Claudia felt. I also like how the author described the way both keys affect each other and have a "key" connection.…

We were playing some tough teams and we were a little on the short side. On day two of the tournament, we were playing our first game in the morning. We were struggling. As the ball was served to us, we got the pass up and the ball was set to me. Suddenly, I felt something all too familiar. I had torn my ACL for the second…

    Personal Narrative: A Lesson Before Dying

    “We all stray from time to time….and when you do, OWN IT! If you deny it….you are giving up control again.” This can teach a lesson to people struggling with drugs and alcohol. If you deny that you have a problem, you will continue to let these things control your life, but if you own up to it, you can help yourself or get help from others. The quote, from the “I don’t know the Bible…” paragraph, “‘Well done, my good and faithful servant,”’ reflects what I believe in and what I have learned. Growing up I heard many people tell me, “God first, others second, and yourself last.” First of all, these two quotes are telling me to live a faithful life by putting God first. Also, to put others before me and serve them just like Jesus did.…

    Practice had just started, the ball was thrown to me, but it was below my knees and the way I rearranged my body to catch the ball caused my ankle to stick into the ground like a stake holding up a camping tent; it was stuck.

    A Narrative Essay About The Day I Brought My Cleats

    I go in on a hard slide tackle and the other guy goes in hard too. We collide and my ankle takes and awkward landing. The next thing I know my right ankle is in so much pain and I can barely play anymore. I walk it off to the locker room and scream in pain when I realize that I probably won’t be playing for a while. I knew it wasn’t broken because I could still limp on it. I go to the trainer she gives me an ice pack and tells me to go see a doctor if I can. I missed the tournament the following weekend and the weekend after that. My ankle was so swollen I could barely fit it in my shoe. I went to the doctor 3 weeks after the injury had occurred. The Doctor tells me to get x-rays just in case to see if there are any fractures. I go back the following week to get x-rays to see there are no fractures. She tells me that I just have a really bad sprained ankle and tells me I cannot play for two months. All I can do is just ice it and soak it hot water and massage it. My mom tells me I should stop playing because my ankle is the part of my foot that supports my whole leg. I thought about stop playing soccer because I did not want to mess up my ankle more and not be able to…

    Years have passed by, same old stuff over and over again. Today was different though, something that I would never think that would happen to me happened.
