Paintballing-Personal Narrative

It was a hot summer day in Hammond, Louisiana and I was pouring down sweat like I had just jumped in a pool. The game was just about to begin, me and my team was eagle eyeing the bomb squad. It was so quiet that you could hear your own sweat hitting the bench. The umpire broke up everyone’s concentration by saying, “play ball”! The defense had ran out on the field and I started rolling ground balls from 2nd to short-stop to third base. They had all made good throws back to me and then I threw the ball into the dug-out because the game had begun.

One friday afternoon I had a friend Anna come over to my house to stay the night. Me and Anna and also my mom were all watching movies and eating pizza. Well my family is full of boy’s so we like to have nerf gun wars.

One weekend, my friend Hannah and I wanted to go on a quad ride during the night. It was during the summer and we were at Hannah’s house and we were bored. So we thought it would be a good idea to go for a ride, so we asked her step dad if we could and he said yes. We both thought it would be super fun to go for a quad ride. So, we get all geared up in proper clothing because it was cold out and off we went.

One warm summer morning my sister, dad, and I were sitting and watching T.V. and my best friend’s dad called and invited us over for the weekend. He said

When i was a young buck back in the day my dad bought me my first bow i was so excited.The next day we went to L and M and bought arrows feild tips and a relese, then we went home to target practice. I was shooting at ten yards i missed the target and i hit the lawnmower tire, my dad grounded me for two days.

The parents were fed up with our wild animal like behavior and told us to play downstairs in the basement. We all went down the basement and started to playing tag. Therefore, we had to be careful playing because the basement was not finished at the time and had metal studs where the walls are supposed to go and the concrete floors that are now hardwood. When everybody went upstairs because they were as tired as an olympic runner after a meet my Dad came down to fix a light bulb. He used a ladder to fix it so he could reach and when he was done he went upstairs so I was the only one in the basement. I wanted to be like my Dad so I decided to climb the ladder. I was at the top when my foot slipped off the ladder. Somehow I was able to turn my body around and grab onto a pipe to stop myself from falling. I felt the pipe starting to brake so I decided to swing on to the metal stud next to me because I was sure that was going to hold me. When my

One year ago on the fourth of July at my family's farm, ¨wha whoo ¨we said in excitement as we jumped in piles of hay.We would mess up a pile, then put it back together we would run, run ,run ,then jump as high as we can we would make team and whatever team won they would get a special hat to wear and we would fight about who won and who get the hat also. They would fight about cheating , I would tell them not to fight because it's the Fourth of July after that would laugh so hard and they would laugh at them self too . they would be so confused at me and look at me sideways.. My brother and all the younger kids would play in the grass with toys than one of the

It was a baseball game day in the heat of July. I can remember warming up on the field for about five minutes and I was already sweating like a dog, I was drenched from head to toe full of sweat. During warm ups all I could think about was drink cold water and just jumping into the lake to cool off after the game. Little did I know that this scorching summer day was going to spark my baseball career for the rest of the season and for the rest of my life. Before every baseball game my dad would either text my mom or call me and would always ask me to hit a homerun for him, and everytime I would tell him I will try my best.

After a very long day of packing and loading things into our trailer, me, my brother, and my parents decided to hit the road and get to our campsite out in the desert. The trip was only about an hour drive and as soon as we arrived, we set up camp immediately. My dad is very dexterous and set up our fancy house tent in no time. The tent was a weird beige and orange color that had fake windows and everything, which means that it was pretty ostentatious because my family didn’t need a tent of that size. By that time it was getting dark so we just all piled our things in the tent and dozed off. In the morning, we all got breakfast and played around until about noon, when we decided to take our two ATV’s for a spin. I put on my little red

I was seven years old and it was in the middle of the summer and I almost got run over by a car. The day was going really good just like any other summer day; I got up, got dressed, ate breakfast, and went outside to play. For breakfast that day we had pancakes that tasted like they were made by angels. Before Chris and I went outside our mom yelled, “Be back by lunch or I’m going to send your dad out there to get you!”

It was finally time for me to drive. I was so nervous I got in the car and put my foot on the break and started the car. I put it into gear and backed up. Then I made a sharp turn into my backyard. That’s when I seen my sister with the water hose. That when I parked the car and turned it off. I was so proud of myself when I got out of the car. I soon went over to my sister and mom. They both stated, “it’s time to wash the car” I was also ready to clean the car. I then help wash the car off and scrub the tires

Even at the young age of seven, I still vividly remember this day because it is arguably a life changing event. I was at my best friend’s house. He and I had spent the day together playing outside having fun, and adding an additional

One Saturday morning I woke up and got out of bed and looked out my window at the pretty blue sky and the clear white clouds. I Got dressed went down stairs and put a pot of coffee on, dad came in the kitchen where I was. He asked me if I was going to the hayfield today, I siad yes dad Im going to cut hay today. I was going to go for a night ride on the hill. I cut hay I came home got something to eat, and started on the hill with the four wheeler.

For my birthday in September my parents gave me an ultimatum, I had to choose between 50 dollars, or I could go on a two week hunting trip. At that time I was a hunting fanatic and chose the hunting trip without a second thought. So a month after my birthday we flew out to Wisconsin and got ready to hunt at my Dad’s parents farm. We got there at about 4:30 p.m. and were debating on going hunting, But I was so gung-ho on hunting that I convinced my dad to take me just for a little while. I was so anxious and excited to be hunting that my hands were shaking.

Last Spring, on a Friday evening we had spaghetti for dinner and some Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream for dessert. It was the typical Friday night at our house. My little brother Andrue, wanted to go out to the garage and help my mom’s boyfriend work on his car. While he ran out to do that, my sister Kinzie and I helped pick up our plates and put the leftovers away. My mom had a Softball meeting that she needed to attend so I stayed home to watch Kinzie and Andrue. My boyfriend Isaac, had also came over for dinner that night and after we finished eating, we were trying to figure out which game we should play in the living room. I had a napkin still in my hand that needed to be thrown away. As I opened the back door to toss it in the trash, I saw my little brother running up to the door with a fearful look on his face. He was yelling something to me but I couldn’t hear him because he was still outside. As I looked up, all I saw was red, yellow and orange colors all over the garage floor. He had dropped a wrench just perfectly enough for it to make a spark in some gas that had spilt on the floor. I had realized what my little brother was
