Personal Narrative: My Most Paid
I didn’t spend my academic career seeking accolades or awards so my list will be neither exhaustive nor distinguished. I did however manage to accomplish some things of which I’m proud. The accomplishment of which I’m most proud is the fact that I raised two well-behaved, disciplined and intelligent children. While my wife was working I stayed home and provided Michelle and Ian with structure and basic education. Michelle was accepted into a well-respected private school one year early and consistently scored in the 95th-99th percentile in all standardized test. This is I believe due to the strict regimen I provided in her formative years. I have no reason to believe Ian’s performance will be any different. I attended two retreats

    Personal Narrative: My Work Ethic

    Growing up I had two loving parents, they always wanted the best possible for me. School was always challenging for me. I never liked it, and I never had a good work ethic. It started when I was young, my parents never made me do chores, and they always rewarded me for minimal efforts of work, and it did not help me in the long run. I had a very easy life growing up, but being spoiled does not help when you become an adult. It’s very hard to just gain a work ethic, it takes a lot of time and effort.…

Those being, having the opportunity to play varsity shortstop in high school, and having good enough grades to be nominated for, and to be admitted into, the National Honor Society. These accomplishments make me proud because they are goals that I was able to set and accomplish for myself. These are successes that not everyone can say that they have achieved.…

    It was a preposterous dream any would say it would never happen, nevertheless a couple years later along with many hours of tough relentless work I had the opportunity to participate in the combine. This was one of the most important experiences I would ever engage in, it was an opportunity to show off all the skills I have attained to compete against other athletes. Although there was one dilemma with this dream. It was the possibility and probability of being drafted to a team distant from my family, the people I love furthermore rely on. I don't know if I could leave the ones I love to play a sport I've fantasised about. The fear of failing and taking this colossal risk was equivalent as a weight restraining me back to my heart.

    Personal Narrative: A Boring Life That Pays Off

    Is it sad that when it comes to writing a story all about me. Just one story, nothing comes to mind. This is what happens when you dedicate all your life to go to school and try to be the best you can be. Since I was a little girl all I ever did was think about going to school, getting good grades, and just making sure to be able to make your teachers happy. Especially your parents because if you did otherwise you would end up with a beating. When I got good grades it was mostly just so I would not get grounded. I always lived in a nutshell, I do not even remember if I had any friends. It is such a sad thing to me just to sit here and write. Every one else writes about how they went on a fishing trip or some intresting story. What is my story?…

    Personal Narrative: My Minimum Wage Job

    I distinctly remember working part-time at Starbucks, and there realizing all of the economic theories at play. Two of my coworkers worked separately, but towards the same end, exercising their comparative advantage. I later watched as happy hour rolled around, and demand suddenly skyrocketed as our prices dropped. It was deeply impressive to see the seemingly complicated subject of economics so clearly demonstrated in my minimum wage job. I was only a month into my first microeconomics course, but I had already made the decision to declare myself an economics major. I have always been, I think, deeply interested in what drives our world. So it was only natural that in listening to my professor explain the pricing of goods and how labor was…

    Personal Narrative: My Outstanding Balance

    At the start of spring semester my freshman year I had an outstanding balance with my home institution. This balance caused me a lot of stress and the time that I should’ve spending study was instead being spent on worrying on thoughts of how I might not be able to return in the fall. Fortunately with the money I earned through my internship that summer I was able to bring my remaining balance down low enough for me to enroll for classes. However in order to not put myself in that position I took on numerous jobs on campus, spreading myself too thin and not leaving enough space for my studies. After talking with my professors and getting their advice I was able to manage being both a full time student and working the hours of a full time employee.…

    Personal Narrative: My Voluntary Work

    As the single child in a family with working parents, I spent the most time of my childhood living and hanging around with my dog. This experience might be one of the reasons that I am very compassionate to animals and sensitive to people’s needs. My voluntary work is in a welfare house called Alenah's home. I love working there because I like seeing the smile face of the children there – even some autism babies don’t smile facially, I believe they can feel the love when being caressed softly.…

    Personal Narrative: My Pursuit Of Financial Success

    The important pursuit of financial success is an idea that has been drilled into my head by the adults in my life from early on; my parents struggled in life, and for me they wanted a better, easier, future for me. What I took away from this was that I would not be successful and happy without the money and credentials as well. I could not understand why so many of my classmates wanted to be writers and artists; didn't they too want to be successful? However, the summer before my senior year, I had an idea that would change my thought process forever: a visit to the gateway of success, the Naval Academy.…

    Personal Narrative: A Career In My Life

    The first person I interviewed was my mom. Her first job ever was at a bank, and got the job a week after she graduated high school.

    Personal Narrative: My Socioeconomic Experiences

    Throughout my childhood, I’ve been exposed to a variety of socioeconomic environments which have given me a broad world view. When I was four years old, my family emigrated from Pakistan to Detroit. My parents, who were trained physicians in Pakistan, weren’t licensed to practice in the U.S. My father became a bartender and my mother a maid to pay for our one bedroom apartment in the projects. It was difficult but my parents sheltered my brother and I the best they could. I remember when the only thing in our pantry was a jar of peanut butter and a bag of sliced bread. Times were tough, but I have the utmost respect for my parents for getting us through. I’ve also come to understand how people who live below the poverty level can survive.…
