Personal Narrative-Determination
I am the most amazing person on earth. Do you know why I am so great? I am almost godly because of my great skill of tetherball. I hit the ball so hard that the post will fall over. Sometimes my arms power is so great that the string snaps. After snapping the ball would travel 300 feet before landing so the crowd members have a special spot called a splash zone. It was made just for me! The only thing that can compare to my power is the gods themselves! Maybe even my power is beyond this world. That was probably even an understatement. In my matches people are terrified to play me knowing that they don’t stand a chance. When I step up onto the court the crowds scream my name hysterically. I get showered with roses and gifts, even if it's …show more content…
The name McKenzie is a name that is loved and envied. My license plate is CHAMPION and my middle name is tetherball queen. My legend is for greater than the Flashlight Queens. Who cares about her? Please I could do flashlight tag in my sleep and still win. Lets just say that I’m the ultimate winner, in anything and everything. That is not all. I am super humble. So humble in fact that I have decided to let the Flashlight Queen think she’s the best even though she’s NOT. So even though I’m the best at tether ball I am also the best at… EVERYTHING. Everything meaning everything tetherball. Even though there aren’t tetherball teams I have been asked to join at least fifty different ones. I have to switch from so many teams that I just bought all the jerseys in advance. And off season well the clubs go crazy begging for me to join them. I even joined a club on the other side of the world because they wanted me so badly. Even though nobody can come close to my awesomeness I have a trainer. I lift a tether ball that weighs twice my weight. But really it's impossible to get better than I already am. I do it for the fans because while I am humble I am also very kind. My fans need to see the amazing me to be

    On a beautiful warm fall day, my basketball team was looking forward to our game against KIrby later that evening. We were all excited to get to play our first basketball game of the season. I was already thinking of the role I would play in the game, which would be point guard. Point guards were almost never relied on to score. I was just expecting it to be like almost every game I had played in. It ended up being an extraordinary game for not just my team, but also I had the best game of my career. The crowd roared every time I received the ball. I sounded like tornado sirens through the whole building as the ball exited my hand for the shot. The announcers said they had never seen such a performance.…

    The best part of me is how aggressive I am when it comes to basketball. I play as a post so I am no ghost when it comes to game time. I through elbows and blow through the competition. I am not a very tall post, but I go out on the court and do my best to make my mark. A nickname of mine is the "Rebound Machine" and it explains what I do best in the…

    This was my dream, and it took me blood sweat and tears to make it happen. Coming from a small recreational team, I had the bare minimum to work with, but I took it for all it could offer. Training six days a week, I tore my body up day in and day out. It wasn’t easy, I would cry and lose faith in myself but I constantly picked myself back up and reminded myself exactly what I wanted. I trained for three months before I went to an Identification camp for the USRowing Junior National team where I had to do a 2k erg piece and row on the water. I sat in that room, surrounded by girls who all had the same dream as me and I had to prove that I was the best. I began that piece, and started to fly. I pushed out a personal best that day, and even got the national coaches attention as she stood behind me for more than half of my piece. I spent the next two months training, checking my email every day to see if I was selected. Weeks went by without any sign, making me feel defeated. As I got ready to lift after school, I got an email. As I read it I started crying. I cried of joy, exhaustion and relief. I had been selected to be a part of the High Performance Camp for the…

    One of my greatest strength is my musical talent. My love for music has helped me greatly in the past; one of the instances was my solo for an opening of a concert. The rush of overwhelming joy from all the hard work and hours that I had put into practicing my solo had finally paid off. The rough and scratchy sounds of my solo, mixing with the rest of the band sounded like heaven. This solo re-ignited my love for playing guitar and really pushed me to continue what I loved to do most. My dedication of further improving my musical skill is why I am able to advise other to play guitar.…

    A person achieves proficiency at a sport faster if he consults others who engage in the same sport. To admit that he is not the best requires humility. To be able to ask for advice requires an even greater amount of humility. Hence, as a person goes through the process of improving himself, he becomes humbler and more likely, a better person.…
