Rough Draft Of A Personal Narrative Essay

Getting into the swing of becoming an adult may seem like the end of the world. It’s stressful, confusing, scary, and overall very difficult. For me at least. You think that it might be the end of the world for you, but nothing is worse than losing yourself in the process of all of that. You feel lost and frustrated because you don’t know who you are and what you want to do. That is what happened to me. Throughout high school, mainly my last two years, I felt lost, I didn’t know who I was. Graduation came and my graduation present was a plane ticket to Virginia for a week to meet a friend. Going to Virginia and meeting Megan has shown me who I am and what I want to do.

“Beep beep beep” My alarm sounds startling me. I reach for my phone to turn off this horrid noise. It takes all my willpower to not press snooze and just roll over. Then I remember that I am going to Florida today. I excitedly jump out of bed and start to get ready. I step onto the cold tile flooring of my bathroom. I reach the toothpaste and the minty flavor soon fills my mouth, leaving me fresh breath. Next I head into my room to change out of my pajamas.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOOO! The plane took off and flew across the sky! I sometimes feel dizzy when the plane takes off. I watched outside as the city grew smaller and smaller and smaller. Then the world looked flat-ish. Then we went through the clouds! Once we were super duper high, I closed my window cover and made myself comfortable. Then I got a little tablet thing on the plane. It could watch movies or play these little mini games. I went to the games and it was very slow and glitchy. I went to the movies and watched Eddie the Eagle for no reason. I just picked a random movie. Once we were done flying, we entered cool places like Disneyworld, Animal kingdom, & Epcot. Our timeshare was Orange Lake.

The roar of the jet engine was like thunder'as the ground slowly disappeared I noticed that i was actually gonna be in Disney World. The plane was really cold and damp because of the cold weather.It smelt k ind of musty with a hint of cheap hairspray.

My parents picked me up from school on a Friday as I got in the vehicle I noticed that my were sitting next to my brother and my cousin was sitting on the back seat. So my whole family was going to Florida with me My parents drove ten hours to get there.

While we were at a loss of words, we were unaware that a man was at a loss for air just a short distance away from us. The mighty waves made it difficult to see if there were people in the water, but the panicking crowd staring intently made it evident that something was wrong. After further examination we were able to spot two men struggling for life in the unforgiving waters while dozens of people watched in shock. None of us knew what to do in this situation, so we did the one thing that we knew how to do; pray.

I entered the world as a dreamer…not exactly I arrived into the world screaming so emphatically my face was flushed red but yes as time progressed my imagination spiraled, but first let's rewind. April 6, 2004 was a particularly humorous day for my mom, she waddled into the waiting room for her monthly checkup with the OB/GYN doctor very pregnant, the doctor concluded that she was five centimeters dilated and asked politely if she was having any contractions my mom strongly spoke, “No.”. The doctor was in between crossroads she didn’t want to send my mom home, fearing she could have the baby at home or in the car, but there was no explanation to monitor or keep her overnight. The doctor explained the risks of going home, and informed my mom

Meg Lowery once said, “Being a single parent is not life full of struggles, but a journey for the strong.” From personal experience, I know that being raised by a single mother is very humbling. Throughout my life there have been several trials and tribulations. Growing up with one parent has definitely taught me about having faith. Seeing things like seeing my mother struggle to make sure my brothers and I had everything we needed. I never allowed that to hinder me. I let it motivate me to become who I am today. I feel it has made me diverse. I am now able to be a leader and a follower. Despite the past, I am able to be confident, while also being able to be humble. One of the most humbling experiences I’ve ever been a part of was when I was

The more we advanced they were seeing more lights. These turned into a big city, "Miami". At that time I did not know whether it was fantasy or reality. Seeing Miami for the first time from the sky gave me the idea of a toy city. A city where the night is full of life, lights and movement. Suddenly again the same pleasant voice that greeted us on the plane ride. This time to inform us that we were about to land. When we flew over the airport and see that big building made me feel that many surprises were to come. During the landing there was a bit of turbulence, it was funny because it felt like when you go in a car and there are bumps in the road.

As I walk off the plane and onto the lot, all I see is beauty. “I’m so glad you guys are finally here to see Italy,” my mother says with excitement. Of course, I was so overjoyed when I arrived, all I thought about was visiting Virginia (my Nonna’s cousin).

The time was currently 8:00 a.m. when I heard my alarm go off. I tried my best to ignore it about three times when I realized I must have something to do that's really important that I had to set up an alarm. I finally realized that my sister, Gabriela, and I had to go to the mall to purchase a dress for our cousin’s party. I got up, turned the alarm off, and went to her room.

The engines of the plane could just be described as huge. I remember having the sensation of going to another planet. I should have known that in many ways, I actually was. Everything kept getting back to me, my past, my inference of the future and all the goodbyes. Every single one of

Then he returned and continued down the road and came to the next stop and said, “Delta airlines this is your stop”, my heart jumped cause this was it this was our airline so we got off the bus got our luggage and walked towards the entrance.

I ride my bike around my neighbourhood five times every Sunday night. I enjoy the routine of the same distance, at the same time, on the same day. It’s calming. Last night was different though. I wanted to push myself to the absolute limit. I wanted to ride until my legs burned, and then some. It’s the only time I’m ever alone with my thoughts, you know? Anyway, last night while I was biking around my neighborhood, something caught my eye as I rode by the trees that separate two roads. There was a brand new shoe in the road.

Soon enough, I felt the bump of the plane landing and saw palm trees out the window. I snatched my stuff beneath me as all the other passengers stood up. We walked out of the plane, and instantly I felt the hot sun beating on my back. I was very excited. My two brothers, Dylan and Dalton, my Mom and Dad, and I were in Hawaii.
