Narrative Essay
Not Another F
(Sweeney. 1) “Not Another F”
I stared shocked at my cursor not believing what I had just done. I was indeed done; done with a paper that I agonized for the past 4 hours. The paper was due in a mere 2 hours and I had all week to do it. My Ipod had stopped due to its battery running out, which was the least of my problems writing the essay. I somehow managed to focus my attention long enough to get it done, however. Finally the annoying inconvenience of writing this meaningless essay, that had disturbed my social life, was actually done! Taking an “F” on the essay would have demolished my grade.

I devoured a big delicious breakfast, my brother finally took a quick shower and no major assignment was pending. I even caught the bus on time without having to break into a sprint and found out I got an A on my math test. Everything was going good, almost too good to be true. Then life fell in to oblivion as I watched my English teacher writing the words “Narrative Essay” in the homework corner of the black board. My hope faded. Somehow I was in amazement, and not amazed in a positive manor. I mean it is a collage English class, essays where bound to appear in that corner of the board eventually.

I numbered my dislikes from 1 to 5. Having my ideas in order would make this paper that much easier to write about. Knowing which paragraphs would come first gave my mind a little bit of ease. I wrote a rough draft of my paper and had it edited it. Although I didn’t like want to write this essay, I gave my best to it. After my paper was marked all up I figured, ok I can start the typing now. Moving at a moderate pace, I came to the typing phase of my paper. Deciding what font to use was easy. The professor gave us very strict guidelines to follow as far as font, letter size, and format came. Paragraph one was the introduction, pretty easy. Paragraph 2 followed then 3, 4, 5 etc…. By the time I got the conclusion I was pretty excited. I have seemed to breeze through the whole essay just in time. Just 2 hours before class, I finally had a chance to relax and I began to believe that I accomplished my goal and proved myself once again. The ultimate opinion was my teacher’s of course. He always seemed to depict things that neither I nor my helpers noticed. So my next step was go to class and turn it
