Personal Narrative: I Am Gay
I was an emotional wreck for no reason. They knew and continued to love me. I was so relieved and excited at the same time. People cannot help who they fall in-love with, and that is just life. Like Ellen Page said, I am here because I am gay. I like the opposite sex and although it is not right to some people, I am me. I am happy in my own skin and I think everyone else should be too. I am me, my own person, and I cannot change that. Instead of being embarrassed of who I am and what gender I prefer, I will embrace it. Never belittle yourself because of another persons opinion.

    Personal Narrative: Defining Myself

    I don’t know how to begin to define myself in order for you to understand who I truly am. I believe there is more to a person than stories that mould us into who we are today; like when one asks, “Tell me your story," I don’t think about that time when my family broke into two or that time I was diagnosed with my mental illnesses. I think of coffee, because coffee is bitter and bitter people drink coffee, sad people; people with heavy hearts and heavy footsteps, with tangled thoughts, people with anxiety and words left unspoken, people like me. Lonely people drink coffee. I think of the world map I have in my room with thumbtacks marking every country I want to visit. I think of foreign languages, and how beautiful it sounds when words form…

    Personal Narrative: My Personal Background

    Personal background starts off small, it changes and grows over time into something big, it grows into an identity. Walking down the hallway at school, seeing someone standing alone, my first instinct is to make conversation, compliment, or even just smile at him or her. This instinct came from someone once telling me an act so small could turn a person's entire life around. As a kid, reading encyclopedias about random topics, consumed my time. Many days were spent coming home to find an injured wild animal in my dad's arms waiting to be saved. My dad would sit outside and draw animals, trees, and anything else he saw. Nothing excited me more than trying to draw whatever my dad drew, and as good as he did. Any assignment that was handed to…

    Personal Narrative: Who Am I?

    My story beings like any other, at the moment I took my first breath on July 30th 1998 in Bilisht, Albania. I was born in a small town in the lower region of Albania where my entire family lived with my grandparents under one household. My parents soon came to the realization that the current living situation was incongruous for a new family, such as ours, to thrive. As the result, my parents chose to apply for the government program granting our family access to move into a completely new society with new laws, regulations, political aspects and that was tens of thousands of miles away. Our family, at that instant, had a struck of luck as my mother’s name was drawn for us to move to the greatest country the United States of America.…

    Personal Narrative: Who I Am Today

    I’m happy with who I am today, just as everyone should be. But if I could change anything about myself, I’d want to have more motivation to do things. In the mornings before school I can barely get out of bed because I’m so tired and don’t want to go to school. I’m exceedingly intelligent but I don’t have any drive. I procrastinate on most of my work, and sometimes I just don’t want to do the work. Right now I’m rank 14 in my class but I could’ve been higher if I had any drive my freshman year. I don’t think about how my decisions now will impact me later and when I do, I don’t really care. I also don’t have much motivation to do things in sports activities. Last year I played volleyball and I never had that much playing time. Never being able…

    My whole life since the age of 3 revolved around sports. I excelled in soccer and continued to play at the collegiate level. During my high school years I wanted to be the best player I could so I started reading fitness magazine and as much about nutrition as I could. At 16 years old, I started to lift weights before school started and immediately fell in love with the combination of weight training and…

    Personal Narrative: Why I Am Here

    Here I am in honor classes, but why I’m not smart enough to be here. This is going to be too difficult for me. All I see when I look around are all these outstandingly intelligent people. The only reason I am here is because Mrs. Lee’s class was straightforward or maybe the other people in that class were not very bright. Whatever the reason, I am here and already homework on the first day of school, the other kids probably don’t have homework. I really don’t want to be here, I want to be the smart one again. I feel strange and uncomfortable when I have to speak out loud like if the people around me are judging me.…

    Personal Narrative: My Fear Of Self-Disclosure

    There are many influences on emotional behavior like personality, culture, gender, social convention, and more, but one that I have a constant struggle with and try to address, is fear of self-disclosure, which means the fear of revealing information about himself or herself to another and risk unpleasant consequences. I'm one of those people that tries to be honest all the time, but deep down I usually don't disclose really deep personal things about me. It's not that I'm afraid of what people will think because people will always judge. I'm not here to please everyone, just the people I care about. It's that I personally feel vulnerable. I don't want to show vulnerability in front of others. I do disclose personal information about myself…

    Personal Narrative: My Relationship With Sex

    Through all my years in school I have never sat in a class remotely close to the way Meeting12 was conducted. I was sitting there and asking myself where was this class when I was in high school? I understand why this type of communication is so difficult, I have never had an open forum of sorts to talk with the opposite gender and really communicate the topic of sex. To me it seems like such an undervalued and under utilized part of relationships. I think if more classes take on an approach like meeting12, communication between genders can greatly increase.…

    Personal Narrative: The Breaking Of My Social Norm

    Each and everyday people walk the halls of this school. You see people walking on the streets in their neighborhood. They are all walking forward. Why? That is what is normal. We have been doing it this “normal” way since humans could walk. Baby's first learning to walk don't walk backwards do they? No, they are biologically programmed to move forward. I wanted the breaking of my norm to be obvious. What better way than to walk backwards and go “against the crowd”.…

    Personal Narrative: Homophobia In High School

    Our school didn't have a GSA for about three years until now. When I was a ninth grader I was very sure of my sexuality. But the thing was that the school I went to wasn't very friendly when it came to LGBTQ+ people. The administration were fine, the issues usually came from the student body. I was surrounded by homophobia, and I had not one safe place to allow myself to be me. I wasn’t allowed to be as open as I wanted to be but eventually I thickened my skin and came out. Looking back at that time I really wished I had a safe place, a place where I did not feel oppressed. So senior year the original advisor for our school GSA came back. It was time to make that safe space I had so needed back at the beginning of my high school experience. So along with a few other LGTBTQ+ allies and family we breathed new life in our GSA. We had decided that it was time to hold elections because when it first began out club had no executive cabinet. So since we only had a handful of members, I’d volunteered to be president and since we had no objections and no opposing party I was voted in. We now had a full executive cabinet. So I started advocating for our club in my classes since everyone knew me and all that. And we’ve now added about two more members another gay teen and a lesbian.…

    Personal Narrative: I Am Not A Straight A Student

    I am not a straight A student, but that does not mean I do not understand business. I was once told that straight A students end up working for the C students because the A students want everything to perfect and don't want to see failure. The problem with that Is that once they do fail at something they don't know what to do while these C students are somewhat used to failing, they know how to overcome the struggle and manage to get it done better than before. I am one of these hard working C students and have always found a way to get things done. I am one of the Captains of the Track and Field so I know how to work great with others. To continue, I'm in an AP statistics class so I am very good when it comes to working with numbers. By being…
