Personal Narrative: Playing The Escanaba High School Varsity Team

The story I told my partner was about a volleyball game. We were playing the Escanaba High School Varsity team. We were leading the first match 20-24 and ended up losing 26-24. Our coach was extremely disappointed in us. However, we pulled ourselves together and fought to win the next three sets. Each set was as close ass the last but we worked through everything. We played hard and left every play we had on the court. We ended up winning the game. When we tell a story verbally we definitely lose the ability to fully set the stage. In our writing, we are able to control what feelings are emphasized and what we force to reader to acknowledge. We can finetune our descriptions and figurative language. We have to opportunity to edit the writing
