Personal Narrative : Chapter 10

Throughout my childhood I could never say I had the most exciting life, even now I can still say that about my daily routine. Although my family put effort into nurturing me into a well-rounded member of society since youth, I never felt any change or progress personally; it was more as if I simply adapted to whatever expectations my elders had of me. I know this feeling did not apply to me only, in fact, I was once in a classroom full of fifty-two people who accommodated to whatever came their way.

After a long ride, we saw our new home for the first time. It wasn’t luxurious, but to a couple of young children like us it was cool to live on the beach. The changes that lied ahead of us were great. There are many ways in which this new start changed my life. First, no longer did we live in fear. This enabled me to move on. I enrolled in eight grade that year. I felt like had a fresh start. No one knew my business. I could make myself whatever I wanted. My whole personality changed. That year I started at quarterback for junior high and from there everything started to look up. If I was to go into details of all the success I had it would be bragging, so I am just going to say I went from a casualty of a broken home to a respected and important part of High Island High School. In the five years I was there, I had more fun and a more productive life than all the other years put together.

Growing up with a father in the military, you move around a lot more than you would like to. I was born just east of St. Louis in a city called Shiloh in Illinois. When I was two years old my dad got the assignment to move to Hawaii. We spent seven great years in Hawaii, we had one of the greatest churches I have ever been to name New Hope. New Hope was a lot like Olivet's atmosphere, the people were always friendly and there always something to keep someone busy. I used to dance at church, I did hip-hop and interpretive dance, but you could never tell that from the way I look now.

I told mess-up, my son was trying to set up my reader for my disability for the course and I accidentally started the Ch. 1 - Investigation An Answer Form. It said no Time Limit does that mean I can go back. I am so sorry, I promise not to be a pain. I am just trying to get everything set up and got to know the website.

It started as typical Tuesday with a couple of court hearings, maybe an arrest, but nothing to exciting. That all changed at dawn.

*disclaimer: bare with me... the next 5 chapters are crap because i wrote them over a year ago...chapter 19 will be the start of some great shit*

Today we are leaving Concord New hampshire. We are very upset because we loved our visit. We were packing up to leave. We walked down to go eat some breakfast. I got toast. After breakfast we went up stairs to get are stuff to leave. When we hopped in the car we looked out the window of the car.

Week one has passed by quickly! I think this week was very successful and I can say that I have learned many new things. This week has been an experience for me learning things about the business world. I am not a business major so I was not expecting to take these classes. I was assigned them, but have found them very beneficial. As I read through the first couple of chapters I read things I had heard before. This was a good thing that I could put the information with the terms I had heard previously.

After having been compared to my brother for so long, our differences in athleticism being the greatest among us, I finally was free to be my own person for no longer was I forced to fit into this preconceived idea of what I should look like, and eventually, surpassing this "standard" my physique was held to. Among other changes, my most gratifying moment was when I bought all new clothes, for I had dropped from an XL in shirt size to an S, and my pants went from a 38 inch inseam to a 31 inch inseam. I still have my largest pair of pants I ever wore, as a memento to remind me how far I have actually come, overcoming both the physical obstacles I had placed in front of myself, and the mental obstacles society's standards had placed in front of

Chapter two; (Question 1-2) It was a great example given about the twins, I’ve also experienced that with my children. My daughter was fully raised by me, she didn't have a father in her life however, I met my husband when she was just six months old. Everything she do has a purpose and she strives to make a difference in the world. On the other hand, my son which is the oldest, I had him when I was 18 years old, still running the streets and wanted to hang out with friends so, majority of the time he was with his dad. As I became older and a responsible adult I had two kids by the age of 22 I decided to move out of the area I grew up in and strive for a better life for my children. Even though my son was 5 at the time of this adjustment every

My first paper was a descriptive paper where I had to describe a person close to me I chose my mother. The way I described my mother from the way she looked to the way other people look at her, works for my whole paper and you can’t see it all through the paper. My paper does fall short because my font size and grammar made my essay bad. I didn’t fully spell out words and used a lot of slang words instead of proper grammar. When me and my mother were at the beach and we watched the sunset, I made the reader really feel like they were there watching the sunset. “The sunset change into 3 different colors, tangy orange, fiery red and mellow yellow.” If I didn’t write the paper and I had to read the paper I would’ve imagined I was there at the

Today has been pretty strange. I saw this thing, well I actually didn’t see it, but it was there…

When I was small something was off…but as a four-year-old the weight of the decision and the very vocabulary that I needed simply didn’t exist in my lexicon yet. As the years went by my long hair and feminine mannerisms caused bullying problems, being called “faggot” and “queer” was my daily reality (this was the early 90s). After one particularly bad scuffle in the second grade I found myself staring at my long mid-back length hair in a bathroom mirror, my nose dribbling copious amounts of blood into the sink. After that fight I pretended that I was tough, and part of being tough was having short hair, so I cut it. Stuffing and actively suppressing my feminine qualities and traits to survive I stepped into what I expected would be a short-lived business and embraced masculinity as much as I could. All the while becoming more and more melancholy as time went by, plateauing during my years of puberty as testosterone slowly revised my skeletal structure and musculature into that of a young man. It seemed it couldn’t be a temporary stay.

I thought landing a job at one of the local factories would be cake; it wasn't. Several of them had closed their doors, so there weren't that many openings. And though I had been the Shit in high school—started on the football team and we went to State twice—none of that really mattered to them. My high school days were over and I couldn't exactly run around showing my cock to people and expect it to land me a job.
