Personal Narrative: The Spill In High School
I was in third grade when my friends and I decided to put things down the school’s toilet and sink thinking it was cool to see the objects disappear . It all started one day during recess . We were talking to a kid named Matthew who taught us how to put stuff down the sink and toilet . Every morning we barricaded the bathroom door shut and put rocks, wood chips, and paper towels in the sink, toilets, and urinals. We knew that if we got caught we would be in big trouble , so we went in shifts during class. I went to go flood the bathroom during reading and my friends went during other classes. In no time, we had this down and no one could catch us. We told only a few of our closest friends that we knew would never tell on us. The teachers and staff were confused about what was happening and they even held a grade assembly to discuss the matter. This didn’t stop us and we were getting really good at it. Now we were putting markers and pencils down the sink too. One morning we were all in the bathroom putting stuff down the sink, as usual, when suddenly we heard a bang. Someone had come in. It was a kid named Darryl. He ran to the principal's office. We were freaking out because we knew he was …show more content…
Now we were really scared. We were talking about how scared we were and some of us were even crying. When we got to the quiet room, Ms Dunbar had us sit down on the floor because there where not enough desks. She started screaming at us. “Do you know what you have done. You have flooded the plumbing in the bathroom that's over 300 dollars of property damage . At first we all denied that we had anything to do with it,but since I had been to the quiet room many tim I knew how to lie well I told her this story that we had no idea what we were in trouble for and we didn't have anything to do with the bathroom being flooded and we said that Daryl was

    Throughout my years of high school I have always strived for the best grades that I could attain, and they didn’t come easy. There were plenty of distractions that had driven me off course. Whether it was long hours at practice, volunteering for my community, or having a part-time job, I couldn’t let these activities hinder my grades. This purpose had sprung in me, to not only strive in my extracurricular activities, but also my schoolwork. Balancing both school and additional activities wasn’t a simple task. This led me to many sleepless nights, in which I had to tutor myself on certain topics I was struggling on. This ranged from my hardest subject, to studying extra hours on my hardest class, and even simple topics that I needed extra work…

    When I started Unity High School I thought that we were going to get a lot of work from my classes, and that work was going to be extremely hard. I also thought that I wasn't going to have any free time to do anything because of that, but it turned out to be wrong because the teachers give us a good amount of work but its not really hard. I thought that making friends in Unity would be hard in a sort of way but it was quit easy because everyone else was trying to make friends too. When I first got to Unity I also thought that there was going to be a few school clubs, but there is a good amount of clubs that students can join if they want to join some type of club. I think as a person I have grown more since first coming to Unity because I…

    High School was a great experience. Not only did it teach me about Math, History and English, but it also taught me about choices and consequences. I had several close friends who did not get the same experience that I did. One of my friends had a rough start in life. At the end of our junior year she became pregnant with her first child. We started our senior year ready to celebrate our high school years coming to an end. She had so many plans for after high school. As the school year went on she expressed to me how her child father was being very supportive at first, but recently felt that he was no longer treating her the same.…

    I became a sophomore just one year ago and I have enjoyed every bit of the High School. I’ve met new friends and I have seen some old good friends. I have appreciated what I have right now in school, grade and teacher wise. All of the teachers have been extremely helpful throughout the time I have been in High school. For the first few months of High school I had some bummed out times. I was bummed out because I was disappointed that I didn’t have any classes with any of my friends. I figured if I had at least one or two classes with my friends it would be another awesome year like ninth grade was when I had almost all of my classes with at least one of my friends.…

    I remember it like it was yesterday. Elementary school; second grade; Ms. Rubright’s class to be exact. We were being lined up like cattle going to the slaughterhouse, so we could go on a bathroom break in an orderly fashion. My teacher called on my table, and we stood up and walked over to the line being as quiet as church mice; since that was what was expected by our teacher. It almost seemed like a medieval form of punishment, the way they made us wait half a century before we could actually exit the classroom and use the restrooms. My friend, Matt, a chunky red-head who was always pushing his glasses up on his stubby nose, came to stand behind me after his table was called to line up. At the time I was happy to be standing in line to…
