Narrative Story
“When Everyone’s Turning their Back”

My story is about a family that is been destroyed because of the selfish actions of the adults. This narrative is about the story of my friend who watched her parents separate because of her father’s another woman. She tells us that at first her parents are like the others, happy and full of love but as time passes it seems to her that her parents are falling out of love because unlike before, she said her parents always sort their misunderstandings, but as the times goes by she started to notice that her parents hardly talk to each other after their fight. She also tells us that she became aware that every time her father comes home late, her mother will start to confront him and they will start to fight. Because unlike before her father in not that secretive about the messages in her phone but there was a time that her mother caught her father calling another woman “hon” and sometimes saying I love you on the phone, and that is why her mother becomes paranoid and started to confront her father whenever he comes home late. But she cannot blame her mother for doing such thing because she knows that her mother loves her father so much. But as they say patience has a limitation, her mother cannot stand the pain that her husband causes her and started to let go.

Her parents do not realize the impact of their separation to my friend because we started to notice that she started rebelling when her parents separated. Before she hates people who have vices but because of the pain and sadness that comes to her life she started to be dependent on alcohol to forget about the things she wanted to forget at the moment. She has good grades before in school in fact she is included in the top students in my class but because of the tragedy that comes to her life her grades started to fall behind. And she started to date several guys, and sometimes she dated two guys at the same time. We always remind her to stop doing such things but

    We see animals every day. They are our pets, companions, and, to some, family. They are also our dinner, new jacket or bag, and the pain behind our household products. So when does it qualify as cruel, or even inhumane? What is animal cruelty? According to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) “Intentional cruelty, or abuse, is knowingly depriving an animal of food, water, socialization, or veterinary care. Maliciously torturing, maiming, or killing an animal.” Three major examples of animal cruelty today are found in the food industry, shelters, and testing facilities.…

    For the Wrong Reasons I arrived at practice with my shoes laced, hair pulled back, and the mindset that I was unstoppable. I could play against every member of my team and come out the victor on any given day. It was the first day of practice that week, and challenge matches were scheduled to begin. The team went through our daily shuffle of drills, conditioning, and running to prepare for what was lying ahead. While warming up with my friends, I felt great, talking about homecoming, boys, and a variety of irrelevant events. I felt ready. The odds were in my favor and nobody could stop me.…

    Hector Amezcua Ekins Writing 0990 05 Mar 2013 Personal Narrative Starting from a place I remembered as a teen, moving from a place that was warm to a place that had all four seasons; such as winter, spring, summer and fall. The First place that I grew up was surrounded by mountains. During the winter it was full of white snow, something that I was never used to seeing coming from California where all one would see was sandy beaches and the waves clasping one another. As I remember being so new to Park City, UT all I could see was the wonderful views of trees, mountains and people skiing or snowboarding. I have to say this was a fond memory because for the firs time I was actually able to experience the feeling of what winter was…

    Personal Narrative The blaring ring of the alarm clock runs through my ears, marking the end of my pleasant six-hour sleep. I’m looking at the time and fumbling my hand next to me, managing to hit the snooze button and relapse back to my sleep. Repeating this several times, I eventually decided to get up, and turned off the alarm. I grabbed the towel lying on top of my chair, and turn around only to sneak a glance at the time. I stumble through the bathroom, flick the light switch brace myself for the glare of the lights as I struggle to open my eyes. After taking a nice, hot shower, I quickly got dressed and made my way to the kitchen. After my breakfast, I woke up my mom and told her to drop me off. She got up, and drove me to school.…

    Narrative Essay The essay "Me Talk Pretty One Day" by David Sedaris tells about an educational experience of the author. He moves from New York city to France to learn French at the age of forty-one. Unfortunately, he is in a hostile situation which was being in a high pressure class with an intimidating and cruel teacher. Even though he spends time in Normandy, he is not able to fully understand what is being said by the teacher. He is quite nervous and upset because he has a prior background of French but that is not credible in the classroom. While in class, the teacher asks everyone to present a couple of their personal information. For the reason that the students are still new to the language, their vocabulary are narrow and not sophisticated. Thus, the teacher is very mean to those students who are trying to learn French, especially Sedaris. It continues for months. However, that becomes a motivation in his mind and he decides to take to next step to speak fluently in French. He puts really hard efforts in studying and doing homework to have a better understanding in the language. Eventually, he actually understands exactly what the teacher is saying and wants her to talks more.…

    Personal Narrative Yet another Thanksgiving, and I was stuck in my uncle’s basement watching the Redskins face off the Dallas Cowboys. Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, and various other famous athletes all grinned at me from their respective Wheaties boxes, seemingly mocking my pain. My uncle collected them and, for some reason, had decided the bright orange boxes would be a great decorative addition to the basement wall behind the television. I remember once, when I was younger, I was searching for a movie to watch and I accidentally brushed against a limited edition Michael Jordan box. The box began to teeter, and I immediately knew that I was doomed. All the boxes began to fall like dominos to the floor. My uncle, needless to say, was furious. Thus, it was seemingly fitting that the offended boxes, now realigned on the wall, would have the privilege to witness my torture by football.…
