Personal Narrative: An Old Man With A Stuffed Bear

The bear represented safety and comfort to her and its loss suddenly plunges her into a world of fear, isolation, and anger. She feels as though she has been abandoned by the bear, even if she realizes that it did not choose to abandon her. The picture of the woman that we are shown by the author, is one of an adult who still hasn't come to terms with these feelings of loss.

One day, in 4th grade during winter time, me and my friends were playing in the snow. Me and my friends were athletic, so we spent a lot of time outside. The air was biting at our noses, and snowmen with orange noses and piles of snowballs behind snow walls littered the area. Snowballs zoomed across the yard, occasionally decapitating a snowman, or exploding on someone's jacket. I threw my hardest snowball, aimed directly for someone’s back. As he reached down to get another snowball, the snowball kept going. My snowball had shattered a window. Everyone quickly dispersed and ran to the end of the street, and met up.

“In the new dream the dragon-like thing was between them, and somehow the mother managed to get the girl away. When her daughter finished telling the story, there was a bizarre look on the mother's face. As soon as she asked what was wrong, the mother explained. Those were not dreams. How’s that for spirits?”

It was about two weeks after school got out. It was just a run-of-the-mill kind of Sunday. I decided to take my usual day-long naps that seemed to repeatedly happen during the weekend. Once I woke up I was determined to go see what my family was up to, so I went up the stairs two at a time. When I got halfway up the stairs I remembered that I had to go to work in an hour. I skidded to a stop and barely stopped myself from plunging down the stairs that I had just ran up by gripping the handrail. Which was gratefully attached to the wall on the right of me. Turning around so fast that I almost plummeted to my death, I began to scurry back down the stairs. When I rounded the corner to my bedroom I slammed my

We had left the hospital around 5 am just in time to get to the field. We started off the day, and we shot a lot of geese that morning. We shot 197 snow geese on the trip. We were at the hotel on Monday morning, and we were eating breakfast when we saw what the forecast was on the news. There was supposed to be a really bad snow storm, but we blew it off, and we started our trip home around noon. We were about an hour into the trip and the snow storm hit. It was blizzard conditions, and the wind started to pick up, and before long the wind was howling! We had to stay at a hotel in Maryville.

As he turned to run the bear laughed.”After all your boasting your going to run?I thought that you were the strongest animal in the forest!”.The bear knew eventually he could catch up with him so he started to run.The deer knew the forest well, but also knew the sad inevitable truth that the bear would outrun him, but he tried to calm himself down so he could think.

I set down my bags full of party supplies onto the counter, and I walked over to the stairs that lead down into the garage and saw Mr. Francis waddling up the stairs and struggling to keep all the bags in hand. After all of the party supplies were brought upstairs, Mr. Francis and I got right to work. We put out all of the snack trays, blew up balloons just for fun, set up all of the decorations, and made a little snack bar with plastic plates, silverware, snack trays, red solo cups, and four different kinds of soda. Mr. Francis and I got done setting up just in time and before we knew it, there was a knock on the door. Mr. Francis went to welcome my friends in and as soon as he opened the door, I saw Santa Claus’s jolly face and Rudolph’s bright red nose. Santa was dressed in his Sunday best, a knit wool Christmas sweater

Run, Stop, Walk! It was a cold Saturday morning in Italy. Once my mom told me were going dog sledding I jumped out the bed, got ready and ran straight out the door into the car, then we started driving. once we get there I admired all the dogs. I get on the dog sleigh and off I went i caught all the cold breeze! I was riding on a dog sleigh with 2 snow dogs! Brr it was ice cold. I was feeling frightened at first but then I got used to it. The next I knew I was going up hills and down hills so fast! It was like a roller coaster! (but on snow!) it felt like I was santa claus on a sleigh but no. instead I had a dog sled and instead of reindeer I had two snow dogs. I could not believe it at first. My dogs were white with orange

The dream goes on.... The harder I try to remember what happens, the tape ends...bubbles...melts away into light, but a voice, the narrator's voice, says, "if you understand the beauty in this, you understand the beauty of your father." (What was it? What was it!?)

Thud Thud Thud! We were slipping and sliding on the freezing cold ice. And snow was softly coming down. The sledding race was about to start. I was shaking I was so excited.

We got there pretty quick because I dozed off in the car. But when we got there my dad carried me into the hospital and I was in this hospital bed. It was dark with a light directly above me then someone came into the

I had a nightmare and I woke up in the middle of the night. I decided to walk around a little bit and maybe gets something to eat. I walked into the living room and I saw my grandma asleep on the couch. I woke her up and asked where my parents and what was going on and she told me.

One bitter, crisp day in Ohio. I was with my grandma, my mom, we all were very hungry that we could eat a horse. We all wanted a hamburger and some french fries for lunch. So we went to the fridge and the freezer so we could go get the squishy red meat and the freezer burn french fries.

On the next day October thirty-first the boogey bears woke up with a little bit of spirit in their walk. They looked outside their window and saw the baby walking with his parents and hid under the window. But they weren’t able to be fast enough because the parents saw them and walked up to the boogey bears house and knocked on the door. But of course they could not be rude so they had to open the door. The parents looked very happy so they weren’t as worried but they still were not optimistic. The parents thanked them and left them all sorts of goods. From candy to breakfast to dinner the goody basket had it all, even toys for a baby bear. This made the boogey bears very sad because they always wished to have another bear but never had the time for it because they were always hunting or being hunted. The bears thanked the parents and closed the door and started to eat all the candy that was left for them.

I walked up to the house and before I had time to ring the door bell there stood a boy. He had slender legs and a roly-poly stomach. It was not Santa but he did have a really jolly laugh. He
