Personal Narrative: My Life In Hawaii
One day I was swimming through the ocean in Hawaii. I was going to my house and all the sudden I found a purple puddle. I was very curious what it was. I swam over there to look at this purple puddle and all the sudden a shark hit me and I fell into it. Then I was all purple and I tried washing it but it didn’t come off. Now I am a purple fish that lives in Hawaii and smells like coconuts.
After my incident in Hawaii with the shark and the purple ink that is still on me, I decided that I was going to go to Las Vegas. I was tired of my peers in Hawaii so I am moving. I told all the people that I liked (which isn’t very many) that I was moving to Las Vegas. Some were upset and some were happy, that same day I moved. I didn’t take anything with me, I just left. On my way there I ran into this person and asked me to make a wish. I told him that I want to be able to live out of the water and walk. He is “okay, abra cadabra” then poof, I was a fish that could live out of the water and walk.

I checked into a hotel called Bellagio, I was staying there until I could find a house. I checked into my room went to look at it, then I went back down to the lobby. I was looking for a place to eat, then all the sudden there was a purple polar bear that walked in. I followed it up to its room, but I was acting like I was going to my room. But it worked out well because his room was right across from mine. I was looking out that little hole in the door to see when he left. He took the elevator and I took the stairs so I would get there faster. We were both looking at the poster to see what was around us. Then we started talking and he asked for my name, I said, “my name is Leroy, what is yours”. He said “my name is Howie” Then we both agreed to go do something in town

    While I was prepping the ship to set sail again before the rain comes, something strange happened. Out of nowhere I was stung by a jelly fish on my foot. I thought nothing of it; I just figured it was just a sting. I finished the last minute preparations and hobbled my way back to the ship to tell the captain. He…

    On Saturday, I have attended a Pow Wow that was happening at the California State University of Long Beach. I knew what kind of event it was because this was my second time attending one. At the first Pow Wow, I was able to take the opportunity to volunteer for them and helped them out with the resting area for the dancers and other miscellaneous tasks. I also had the chance to walk around and explore what was provided and stayed at the event until the end. It has been over two years since I had gone to the first Pow Wow so I was excited to see once again the beauty and the uniqueness of the Native Americans and their culture.…

    Though I hate to admit it, used to be more comfortable following directions than giving them myself. I grew up a shy girl with maybe one or two close friends. I followed the teachers’ directions, listened to my parents, looked after my sister, and remained diligent in my studies. This doesn’t seem so bad, however I was not satisfied with my personality. I was too timid, expressed no unique thoughts, and had almost no independence. This all changed when I was almost ten years old and entered 4-H, the West Hawaii 4-H organization which was geared towards community service and volunteer work to address the four H’s: head, hands, heart, and health.…

    I was with my dad fishing on a Friday during the summer at about 4:30 PM. The day was hot and bugs were everywhere around us. I had on jeans, a t-shirt and a vest to store any fish we catch. My dad had on the same, but i had a smaller fishing rod than he did because I was small and not really ready for a fishing rod like my dad’s. We went out to fish and started at a bridge that was very rundown and poorly maintained and didn’t catch much because of the current and rocks around where we were. We got one fish to bite but it fell off whenever we pulled it up out of the water. We then decided to move to another spot over by the cliffs and ridges because no one was there to get in the way. For a while we didn’t go anywhere too crazy and nowhere that took too much effort to get to. Little did I know was that it’d all change quicker than I thought..…

    Years ago I adventured on a family trip to the Bahamas. During the time, my sister and I were twelve and eleven, respectively. Due to the fact that it was our first trip outside of the United States, it was imperative that we obtained passports. Because we never journeyed outside the country’s expansive borders, we were negligent to other ways of life. In the Bahamas, my family became exposed to a culture we never acknowledged.…

    Back when I was a littlun, my daddy worked in the meat factory and mama stayed at home cleaning the house and making me my dinner. My parents wanted me to be a smarty, so they made me go to school. They also said I was a good singer, so I decided to join the boys choir. Me and my best bud Charles would go down to the river to skip rocks, but sometimes we would go play chicken on the railroad tracks. Sometimes daddy would say “Stephen, wanna come a huntin with me?” and I would tag along behind him while he hunted for pheasant. I never really listened to daddy’s rules, so he decided to send me off to some fancy boarding school. It was at this point in my life where everything started taking a turn for the worst.…

    The work on the plantations is very exhausting, and I wish I could move back to Shanghai in China. There are other ethnicities here like Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese, but I usually talk with the other Chinese immigrants. Apparently, there is another language called Pidgin that everyone speaks so they can understand each other. How is everyone else doing over the past 10 years that I have been gone? I hope everything has been fine back in China.…

    Nearing the end of the tube I can almost see the shore, It feels as if I've been riding this wave for days. This wave is my hurdle in the ocean that is life, choppy at the beginning but slowly passing by. The ocean has many waves, one for each surfer to ride, my specialty wave happened to be dyslexia. It was in the second grade that my teacher first realized I was different from the other students, because I had yet to read my first book. My parents had found this odd as well, and took me to see a neurologist, who diagnosed me as having dyslexia. I did not quite know what this meant at the time, I only knew that it was the reason I could not comprehend the topics as easily as my classmates.…

    As my cruise ship approached the port we were about to dock at, I stood near the railing looking down into the beautiful water. Even from fifty feet up, I could see straight to the bottom of the crystal clear water. As my family and I headed towards the main door to exit the ship, the butterflies in my stomach grew more and more excited. Finally, we left the ship and were greeted by a large sign that read, “Welcome to the Bahamas!” Our first stop was to swim with the dolphins. We arrived at the aquarium and sat through a long video explaining how to act around the animals. As I finally stepped into my wet suit, I was able to see a few dolphins jumping up into the air and splashing back into the water. I jumped into the water as if I belonged there. As the dolphin popped his head out, I gave him a kiss right on the lips. I could not have been happier. Little did I know, that dolphin was not happy at all.…

    I had been floating on the sea for days. Suddenly, my head touched some soft things. It was sand. I was happy at that time, but when I turned around and saw a deserted island, my happiness turned into sadness. I thought there was no deserted island in the world. People just made it up. But it became real. While I was still in distress, a thought cheered me up. There would be no money, everything was mine in this island, and I could do everything I wanted. I carefully extracted the glass out of my arm. Then I picked up a coconut and started drinking.…
