Personal Narrative: My Hard To Sleep
BEFORE I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP

BEFORE I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP…
That i should rest before i sleep
I hope that evil does not creep
Into my dreams as while I sleep

I PRAY TO THE LORD MY SOUL TO KEEP…
My faith through the darkness, I shall keep
For what I have sown, I hope not to reap
My faith may be shaken, but the foundation will keep

IF I SHOULD DIE, BEFORE I WAKE…
In my honor, I hope I’m given a wonderful wake
But all the same, I pray for my sake
I sleep in peace, to not face the fears that keep me awake

I PRAY THE LORD, MY SOUL TO TAKE…
And forgive me for not giving, when all I did was take
And for allowing me to survive all the mistakes I make
Knowing at any moment, I’m his to take

AMEN

    Personal Narrative: Dealing With Stress

    “I can’t wait to be a senior” was something I would say whenever I walked into my anatomy class full of seniors who did nothing at all but every time I would Jesslyn would stop me, cock her eyebrow, make a ‘you are kidding me right?’ face and say “be careful what you wish for” and I’m now understanding what she meant. Learning responsibility, independence, and how to deal with stress is the most difficult for me coming into senior year.…

    Pillows-Personal Narrative

    It was a stormy, Tuesday night at ‘Walmart’. I walked into the store looking for one thing, and one thing only. A couple minutes passed and then I saw her. I instantly thought she was the one and no one else could satisfy my desperate needs for her. As I walked into aisle 5 I noticed I was not the only one after her. I was insistent that she was going to be mine, so I fought hard and strong for her. The fight felt like it lasted days and nights, but it truly only was about 5 minutes. Fighting for her was challenging, but at last she was mine, I walked up to her and took her to the register. I payed $14.87 for her (including tax), but to me, she was priceless.…

    Personal Narrative-Belly Night

    Every morning I wake up to the annoying sound of Abigael’s alarm clock and the smell of my own leather. Don’t get me wrong; I love waking up to the song, “Endlessly” by the Cab, but does it have to be at six-fifteen in the morning every day even on weekends? I mean, does she not like to sleep? I’ll never understand it. Once Abigael finally wakes up, the anticipation starts to set in. Which pair of shoes will she choose today? Fortunately for me there’s not too much competition. There are the smelly sneakers, the blue heels, myself, and then there’s the cowboy boots. I cannot stand those cowboy boots and there are three pairs of them! I understand that since I am an ankle boot myself, I should get along with them more, but I hate them. They always pick on me since I’m too short to be considered a cowboy boot, which leaves me in this odd in between group…

    Personal Narrative: My Hard Work

    One thing that sets me apart from the other candidates applying to the University of California is my hard work. I have always been smaller than other kids my age. At 15 years old I was 4’ 10’’ and looked like I was eleven years old. Although this was an advantage at the airport, when I would begin to take off my shoes and the TSA Officer would look at me and say, “Don’t worry twelve and under can keep their shoes on.” I was often discredited for my size. Especially because I played volleyball, a sport known for its height. I constantly struggled to make a team I deserved to be on because people would see my height and automatically think I was not capable. Although my height often led me to feel discouraged and angry it eventually taught hard work.…

    Personal Narrative: Tell Me A Story

    It was a perfectly normal Saturday night, until I sat on the couch. I expected to enjoy a funny movie with my dad, but instead I got a trip to the hospital. I sat on the couch, and then I felt a sting in my elbow. At first, it felt like I got a shot at the doctor, but it slowly got worse, and felt more like a knife slicing into my elbow. I winced and sprung up from the couch. I squinted and my eyes scanned the spot where I just sat down. Aha, I thought. There was a small piece of plastic, and it looked like it broke off from a container.…
