The Day I Revealed-Personal Narrative
It was the day after i had gotten arrested. I was sitting in a jail cell, just me and one other guy, he was watching me curiously. He finally started to speak up and asked what my name was, I replied “Bob, what's yours?”
“Billy,” he replied quietly. The man was old seemed like he’d been here forever. He asked me what I was here for,
I replied with “It’s a long story.” After a long moment of silence he says “Well tell me, we got the time.”
“It happened just yesterday, I was waiting outside of an old restaurant to meet up with my friend who I haven't seen for more than twenty years. His name was Jimmy Wells he was a good man always sticking up for people and doing good deeds.”
“I had already been in some trouble with the police, that's

We walked for a while, I’m assuming to a restaurant, I started asking some questions about his life since I had last seen him, but the answers just didn’t add up, and after a while I realized that he wasn't my old friend at all.”
“I think he noticed that I had figured out that he was not my old friend, and right before I was about to run, he stopped me and said I was under arrest, and I realized that the police officer that talk to me outside the old restaurant was my old friend after all.” After that there was just silence that filled the room, no one said anything, and that's how it was for the longest

    Who am I? That has always been an essential question for as long as I can remember. I never really understood why we had to answer that question along the way, but I’m now a senior at SJPII and I still have no idea who I am. It really bothers me that for 16 years I still haven’t figured out who I am. Constantly going from class to class and making new friends I still can’t pin point who the “real” me is.…

    Ralph Waldo Emerson once said “To be yourself in a world that is trying to make you something else is a great accomplishment”. A question such as “who am I”? Really gives me the opportunity to differentiate and express who I really am and who I can be. I am not a complex person who thinks the world is against me, nor am I overly sophisticated “know-it-all” who doesn't take time to pay attention to my surroundings. I can't say that I am like every other person because there are certain things that make me a unique individual. What I can say is that I am progressing towards a brighter future.…

    For about as long as I could remember, my wish has always been to fit in, and be well-liked by everyone. I began acting a certain way that wasn’t me, and even began to lose my identity. I followed all trends and began to lose more and more of my identity as time chipped away. This all stopped as soon as high school began. High school was such a disquieting transition along with all of the new changes I’d be facing. New classmates, teachers, subjects, and responsibilities. I was now required to think twice before every move and concentrate on everything more adequately. All these changes made me begin to realize that I should learn more about my identity and do what makes me tranquil and content as a person.…

    Growing up with divorced parents from two radically different cultures was at first difficult. My mother’s family was from Peru, while my father’s was from Bangladesh. In my young mind, there was an internal struggle with what my identity actually consisted of. I wasn’t wholly from one culture or the other, and felt like a black sheep when interacting with either side of my family. Due to this, I attempted to keep these cultures partitioned. At the time, they were different portions of my life that simply couldn’t intermix. This mentality in turn led me to foolishly shy away from my joint heritage. I kept myself enclosed in a box, blind to the beauty of my surrounding culture. However, as time progressed, I knew I had to make a change in my understanding.…

    I looked at him very closely and examine on how much he has changed. His white hair is thin and combed over from one ear to the other, if the wind blew it would stand up tall, waving like he was surrendering. Dried sweat stains outlined each crease in his fat rolls, there's a pungent odor of feta cheese. The skin under his eyes has a yellowish tint, and the rest of his face has red spider veins. Large pores clogged with filth speckle his nose, and bushy black hairs curled up the corners of his nostrils, matching the wiry strands poking out his ears. As he closed his call, I shouted his name “Sam!”. He looked at me and had a depressing smile and shouted out Brett !…
