Personal Narrative-Home
All morning, Alice has worn an exuberant smile that only intensifies the closer the time comes to us attending the club. By five o'clock, she's bouncing off the walls. “You don't suppose it's too early to leave now, is it?” she asks the moment she steps from the bathroom cloaked in a white towel.
My gaze drifts from the TV over to her. “You'd have to ask Angelo. Besides, he may have something to say about that outfit.” Then again, they are dating, he'd probably enjoy watching her waltz around in little more than that towel.

    With a deep breath to steel her pre-routine nerves she made her way out into the club, thankful that she was far enough away from home that no one would recognise her here, especially in the dark lighting of the place. She stood behind the curtain that led down to the main podium in the club, the fabric shuffling as Mary came sauntering out, her panties stuffed with dollar bills and a grin on her face.…

    Personal Narrative: Baseball Rules

    When we enter the front door, Elena greets me with a giant hug. We tear up, and she walks with me into the dining room. Where, she had set the table with soup bowls, cutlery, glasses filled with iced-tea and light pink cotton napkins. Thom and I take a seat and she pours the hot, spicy, thick liquid into our bowls. “Enjoy,” she says, and leaves us to eat lunch in private.…

    “What time is it right now that you two are arguing like two cocks in the same henhouse?” I groggily sat up from my cot, looking over at my two roommates, Adam and Trest. Trest looked back at me with a slightly apologetic smile, evidently guilty that he woke me up. Meanwhile, Adam simply grunted. “Late enough for all of us to get ready.”…

    Shouts and laughter echo throughout the kitchen as my grandparents recount stories of growing up in Mexico as young adults. Everyone’s eyes light up with animation as family members contribute to the conversation while eating homemade tamales and menudo. At each of my family holiday gatherings, the dinner goes beyond the consumption of a home cooked meal. These family gatherings are very important to me and have contributed to who I am today.…

    I remember when they kicked us out. It was only a couple of weeks ago. We Indians were minding our own business when the troops first came. They dragged us out of our tents and sent us walking with only the clothes on our back. My family decided to go to the Oklahoma region along with our tribe. And so here we are, walking through forests, woods, and plains on The Trail of Tears, looking for our destination. We have been walking since, and our clothing can do nothing against the harsh rain, snow, and coldness.…

    Personal Narrative

    As I was writing my personal narrative for my composition 1 class, it easily made my mind boggle. After I had got started on my personal narrative, it was easy for me to keep writing and keep following along the story line. The main strength of mine that the essay played to was my creativity and my flexibility for different writings, because I have never written an essay as serious and sad as this one, but I did have to add my happy ending when I finished the story. I wanted it to be very attention grabbing with a twist, but I also wanted it to be very emotional.…
