Personal Narrative: All About Me

Over my years of school, one big influence on me has always been sports. Ever since a young age, I have always enjoyed playing and watching sports. In my four years in high school, I have fell in love with the sport of lacrosse.

I woke up and took one bite out of my pop tart but that one bite was all I could eat. My legs were shaking, and my heart was pounding. My dad told me, “It is a true honor to even make it this far so go out there and have some fun.” Once I heard this statement, I knew I was ready to go. I arrived at school and boarded the bus. The car ride was an hour and fifteen minutes of hearing the squeaking of the wheel on the bus. My teammates were getting their heads ready for the big game.

When it comes to what separates me from other teenagers, there would be quite a bit to tell. I would say a major difference which separates me from my peers is my love for barbershop harmony music. I do not have a quartet of my own; however, I love to sing barbershop tags with other friends at church. I set myself apart from the world because of my beliefs: as a New Testament christian, I believe the bible gives us all instruction concerning spiritual matters.

I never knew how much me honoring my mother, An-Mei meant so much to her, until the day she got food poisoning and asked for something I thought was very foolish of her.

Although you can’t tell by looking at me, if you go know me you would come to find out that there is a lot more chapters in my book then i let on to be. My book is fuller and more complex than most. Over the past fifthteen years i have had a lot of life and mind altering experiences that have changed me and shaped me into the person i am today. One experience in particular that has signifigantly changed my life would have to be when i was going through the sixth and the seventh grade, living in Clovis, California. Also, during this time i was raising two of my younger brothers from my stepmom. The situation in which we were all in wasn’t the best and at times it was very hard to get by. Of course now that we are all out of

The summer following my senior year in high school, I was called to serve in the, “Virginia Richmond Mission,” for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It was anticipated that I would serve for a period of eighteen months. This was a voluntary decision: one that would require I leave my home, family, and loved ones behind to focus all my time and efforts on serving others and sharing the good word of God. I knew that this experience would have a huge impact on my life and help me to build my character.

Putting me in this situation that I don't like. Getting seductive every sexy white girl I see or something is chasing me. this is a big huge mistake that causes me to be in my lust of nature. That I can't possessive their fears of silence and dishonest myself to be in their handsome favorite heart. This is sick when there are trying to kiss me, the dirty feeling when there are trying to get in my pants, and mind trick gross when they want sex whenever. They want to touch my body so badly and so I let them touch me. It hurt me so much that when they use me has their own sex tool and I let the dark ruin my heart. That makes me be use by them like a sea siren of beauty. Then I push them away so I could inhale and exhale in my life again. It's

We all sat around the crackling fire as the sky transitioned into clear, starry night. A pack of white marshmallows was scattered all around us; some were empty, half empty, and some weren’t opened yet. The long wooden sticks burned slightly as the marshmallows shoved on top of it were crisping into a golden-brown color.

I had everything and luck: sunrays hitting me as I was pushed in a swing,

So me, me what about me. I was a slacker, I didn’t do anything in school. I had f’s after f’s after f’s, I failed most of my classes. I was told I had to take summer school for biology and English, I went one day for biology and I was tired of it already so I stopped going. My returning year, I’m a sophomore now and well we start with a percentage of 0.00 so I was okay. I had Dance first period, Geometry second period, Culinary third period, English fourth period, Spanish fifth period and World History last period. I have missing credits so one day they called me to the counseling room and they gave me a new schedule and Culinary was gone and biology took its place. I talked to my Chef and told me she would do her best to put me back in because

Nearly everyone struggles with something when they first enter high school. Entering high school can be exciting, and intimidating. Many kids don’t expect to see a lot of changes because in middle school they were the most popular, or the best at a certain sport or position in a sport. Whether it’s on the field or even during lunch, your position or “social rank” is important. Some of the worst drama comes from the soccer teams or basketball teams fighting about “who's on varsity” or “who is whatever position” and so on. If a freshman gets one of those spots, people talk about it. If a senior doesn’t make varsity, people notice as well. But everybody wants to be the “most important player.”

Last year after hearing of Yale Young Global Scholars program in Beijing, contentment felt all over me. The truth is I was always obsessed about China. I could never wait a time I would have my feet in the world‘s biggest city. Beijing connected along with Yale University had my imaginations right. Learning, interacting with new diverse cultures, experiencing college life, and so many other were stories form a friend who got into the program last year. Time could not fasten until I saw the application form online and immediately created an account.

I am Minnie Restivo, Daughter of Stephanie and Brian Ulen. My grandparents are Shelly Ard and Vern Jacques, Curt and Becky Ulen, Marilyn and Frank Ulen, finally George and Belinda Ard. I was born in Galveston, Texas but I have lived in Washington, Oklahoma, Texas, and even Tennessee for a short while. Even though I have lived in all of these places I have lived in Oklahoma and Texas for most of my life. I am lucky enough to have a kind family who will stand behind me in most all of my life decisions. My dream is to become a police officer to protect and serve.

That is, until I was nine and fainted at the sight of my own blood when I cut my finger.
