Destination-Personal Narrative

We went to ER and got to see a baby get drawn from his arm the parents were upset because it was the second time they had to draw his blood. The dad stepped out and the mom stayed and helped hold the baby down. There was a patient with shingles that I only got to see from outside but the phlebotomist showed

I woke up startled and didn’t know where I was. I had an IV in my arm and my parents were staring at me. The doctor came in

We started speeding down the road to meet the ambulance. Upon meeting them I was rushed to Wilcox Memorial Hospital, bumping my dad from the operating room right before he his knee surgery. I wasn't suspected to make it, as I had lost seventy percent of my blood. But somehow, with the help of God, I underwent several surgeries and within the next few days I was stabilized and discharged from the hospital.

Before realizing what was happening, a nurse was trying to put an IV in my arm. The needle compared to my little arm looked huge and too long to go in my arm. I refused to let them touch me and tried to run to my mom. When they had a hard time succeeding at putting my IV in, they decided to get help from my mom. She calmly told me to lay down and to watch her, while they put the needle in. It was hard to ignore the pain pulsing through my arm and all the commotion happening all around me. I looked at my mom and saw the tears that were falling down her face as they held me down. When they were done, there was an IV and a cast on my arm, so that I would not be able to pull the IV out. Then they wheeled me into another room where my mom held and comforted me, while we waited to hear the results.

When I was at school the other day, my band instructor told me, “You are one of the hardest workers I have ever seen, why do you work so tirelessly if you know that you might fail? I was quite surprised because she has been teaching for 33 years. I responded with your book, Almost Home.

Now i don't remember much of what happened but they said i looked like i was in a cartoon. I was laying on the side of the road with my hands and legs pointed in different directions. I remember at first not seeing any blood until i got up. Then it all started to pore down. I got into the car

The light was as bright as the sun and I could feel my retinas burning. In the back i could hear a slight beeping sound almost like it was graphing my heart beat. I heard voices, “Scalpel.” “I’m going to make the first incision now....” And then nothing, the voices stopped and i was back in my own head. I was startled by a falling sensation, as i was thrown into an even colder room. The light in here was dimmer, but it was still blinding. I crawled over to giant metal door and punched it and screamed for them to let me out. I needed to finish my work, my whole reputation depended on it. In a few

My heart was throbbing, heavily and I could feel my body shutting down, my vision was getting hazy. And then suddenly I heard the sirens of the ambulance and two paramedics got down to our rescue as I fell unconscious.

Before they set me on my way home, they gave me a lot of instructions. I couldn't go to school for a week and couldn't do anything but lay in bed. Since I had bleeding in my brain, I had a chance of getting seizures so they gave me some medicine and my mom had to stay home and make sure I was doing okay. Everything was overwhelming, so many of my friends and family stood by my side and came to see me and gave me "Get Well" cards. I really do have the best family and friends in my life and I'm so thankful for

Around two or three years ago my family and I had to move houses. Moving was sudden and we didn't know it was going to happen. This made moving out and into the other house a lot harder. Since we were moving so fast somethings we just decided to leave behind with the person that was still living there. We got most things with us but one thing that we did leave back in the old place was our living room tv. Since we had just moved and my family isn't rich my mom said we couldn't go get a new one for some time. This sucked because I used the tv a lot for watching show, movies, and playing games just like the rest of my family did. Having a tv wasn't something we needed at all but it was always something to do when you were bored and there was no other things to do. Another big thing was my grandma had just gotten us a new playstation 3 and now we weren't able to used it at all because there was no television. Not having a tv was bummer for me and I thought it was a huge problem when it really wasn’t.

It was my first time volunteering overnight at the Ambulance Corps. At this particular time, I have already been an EMT for about 3 years and a CPR instructor for about a year. Call comes in about 3 am for a 50 year old man who has trouble breathing. My crew and I are the first on scene. As my partner is gathering all the equipment to bring inside the house, I run inside. First, I meet the man’s wife who quickly, guides me into their bedroom, where the man is lying in bed. “Hello, I am Brooke! I am an EMT, what is going on tonight sir?” No response. Immediately, I check for a pulse and respirations. No pulse nor respirations. It is in this moment where I put him on the ground and conducted CPR on a real person for the first time.

Moving, for many people, can be a difficult process. A lot of the time kids have to switch schools and deal with the challenge of making new friends and getting used to everything new. Since my parents divorced when I was five years old, I can remember living in many different homes. My mother would rent out a place, live there for a few months, then meet a new guy and move on. For years, I hoped to myself that my mom and dad would get back together, like Nick and Elizabeth Parker from “The Parent Trap.” I knew, however, deep down that such a thing just couldn’t happen. My four siblings and I were dragged along, forced to go with the flow and adapt as quickly as possible. Up till she married her second husband, Tony. As young as I was,

I remember lying there while lights were flashing all around me and the ambulance crew were shinning a light in my eye just to keep me conscious. Craig, Scott, and I where all sent to Hillsborough Community Hospital in separate ambulances. With sirens blaring and lights reflecting off cars as we passed at amazing speeds, I just stared at the ceiling

The publications I chose to analyze are Cosmopolitan and Men’s Health, both successful magazines targeted to the opposite sex. Cosmopolitan is famously known as “The Bible” to women, this is depicted in Legally Blonde when Elle Woods brings “necessities” to her client in jail. The racy magazine is known for the advice it gives to women, analyzing many aspects of a women’s life. Men’s Health is a popular magazine targeted (use synonym) towards men by giving sex, exercise, diet, and lifestyle
