Personal Narrative: My Personal Experience At Spooky

Have you ever had a time you were very afraid of a scary themed event? You were so shocked you couldn’t move. All of this happened to me and my siblings in “Six Flags: Fright Fest”. My parents dropped us off because they had work to do. And they didn’t like the idea of riding roller coasters that go very high up. It all happened last Halloween (October).

Of course I have a favorite thing that we have read, can you guess what it is? Well, if you guessed here is the answer, my favorite thing that we have read it "The Monsters are due on Maple Street. It's my favorite because it's amazing twists and it has parts where you foreshadow, it might be wrong or right.All the others just were not as cool as "The Monsters are due on Maple Street, this it just stuck out to me from the rest. Here is why I like The Monsters are due on Maple Street.

Sports have always been a passion for me, and I have been blessed to have the opportunity to be a part of both the Boys’ Soccer and Tennis teams at West. These two great programs have taught me how to be a leader as well as how to work with others as a team. Overall, I am thankful for all the opportunities Joliet West High School has given to me, and I am excited at the chance of winning the Alpha Omega Competition to show my many teachers, coaches and mentors that all the time and effort they have put into helping me become a better man has paid

Millions of people each night shut the lights off and watch their favorite paranormal television show, awaiting for a hope that the paranormal is real. Although, there is not much evidence in the shows they love to watch. Has television been lying to everyone and is this evidence made up behind the scenes before the episode airs? Paranormal television shows are fake because they use false evidence that misleads viewers.

Thanks for taking the time to answer the phone coach, I really appreciate it. I just wanted to give you information about me. Before my season started I was on top of my game at any position I was at. Everything all changed when we went on a dead period. On July 5, 2016, a day I never would forget. I was kind of in a rush to get home and my car shutoff, brakes locked up, and along with my steering wheel. My car uncontrollably went 50 MPH into a stopped car: I blew my horn, couldn’t turn, there was nothing I could possibly do but hope for the best.

After joining the team, my natural instincts to compete took over and I battled everyday to get a spot in the playing lineup. Although joining the team as a junior, I quickly earned my teammates respect by being prepared for and persevering through difficult practice sessions. I played matches against my teammates every day in order to move into the team’s playing lineup, meaning a top six spot. My relentless effort and infectious enthusiasm at practice led to my place in the doubles lineup with Julian Lenz, one of the top ten players in college. I had to adapt quickly, getting stronger and adding more spin to my strokes in order to compete with Julian against some of the best players in the nation. In order for us to be a successful team, I had to match Julian’s mental focus and desire to win. Through spending time together on and off the court we were able to build a strong relationship that would propel us to an exceptional season. Julian and I were able to win key matches in the Big 12 tournament because we grew to trust one another in high-pressure situations. Ultimately, my success as a student-athlete was a result of my tenacity to succeed and ability to adapt to new circumstances.

When I found out my aunt had breast cancer I was devastated because I thought of all of the things we used to do before she died. I remember when I was younger she would take care of me and my brother since my parents would be working or my mom would be at school. When me and my brother was younger she would drag my brother in the wagon and carry me in the wagon since I was smaller then my brother we would go up town and run erands with her we would go to the Piggly Wiggly so she can get groceries, To the drug store so she could get her medicine and the people that worked their would give us some candy everytime we went and we would go to Bonnies when it was open and get a cheese burger. When she would cook she would let me and my brother

Rape… Death… Spooky ghosts? It’s all found in the novel To Kill A Mockingbird (TKAM) by Harper Lee, is about respect in many ways. In the beginning of the story Scout (A.K.A the narrator) shows little respect to those who aren’t close to her or who she doesn’t even know at all. But towards the end of the novel she shows respect for a lot more people and even made friends throughout the novel. Scout learns a lot about respect from those around her. She learned that respect isn’t know at first it needs to be taught to them. She also learned that some people have different respect level for those of other races, like Tom Robinson. But most importantly she learned that she should respect people who she doesn’t even know.

I narrowed my options down to three schools, the UCLA Bruins, the Purdue Boilermakers, and the San Diego State Aztecs. I wanted to follow in Luc Mbah a Moute’s footsteps and go to UCLA like he did, but then I would have to redshirt a year. Basically it means that I’d have to sit out a year so that I could develop physically and would have an extra year of college sports. I didn’t want to do that though. I was already big enough for the forward position, and I wanted to compete now. So even though they were my first option I had to rule them off my list. I wanted to go to Purdue next, they had a solid program and had Matt Painter as their coach. I was going to go there until I found out Cameron Reddish had committed there. He plays the same position as me, and was a five star recruit coming out of high school so there wasn’t any way I was going to start over him. That left me San Diego State. They hadn’t made a good run

The summer team consisted of tournament’s in the state of Florida, also one big trip to West Virginia. So this year to me was not the most important year to be the starting pitcher to me, because there were seniors looking for schools to also play for and coaches needed to give them a shot before lower classmen. So this year I started a couple games, I also closed a couple just as a sophomore. I wasn’t the best on the team, but I knew if I did my best and worked hard for next year I could be. After the summer team was over I felt good about where I stood skill level with everyone. So at the end of the summer my coach talked to me and asked me to go to a new school, he will be coaching at (Keswick Christian) so deciding where to go was almost

We had a much more successful season that year, although we still fell a little short in both District and Region tournaments, receiving 2nd place in both. During this I received an award for my work during the district tournament, one out of three chosen from my team. This year as a junior I've continued to play Varsity as a setter and our team has flourished, ranking at one point , 14th in the state. We went on to win Region, where I received all tournament team, and make it into the Elite Eight at the State Tournament after being defeated by the third ranked team in the state. Furthermore, in summer we take a Friday and Saturday to host Little Gator Camp, during which we help little girls from grades 3-8 develop their volleyball skills. Many of the girls comeback year after year, which allows us to form a bond with them and watch them develop as players, which can be very rewarding. Overall, my time with the Greenwood Volleyball has made a lasting impression on my life as I learned that with dedication, effort, attitude, and team work can get you wherever you want to

When arranging my shadow experience, I looked to my supervisor for information regarding who to contact on the outreach team. I was given the name of an Occupational Therapist who could accommodate my learning experience, in which I emailed to set up an appropriate time upon approval from their manager. Due to time constraints, I was given the opportunity to do two home visits in the morning with clients that had been on the seventh-floor as inpatients. This was chosen to give me the experience of transition from the hospital to their home and the gaps within the system. Before going on my shadow experience, I made sure to get best practices and the job description of the individual being shadow’s job to help assist pre-job shadow time. The

I started to see improvement, and my coach must have noticed as well, because he invited me to come to the varsity tournament that weekend. I was excited for the opportunity to prove myself, but after sitting for the first two games, I worried that I wasn’t going to get my chance. When I saw that I wasn’t starting in the third and final game, I gave up nearly all hope that I would get to play. I was starting to wonder if all my hard work was even worth it, when, all of a sudden, my coach told me to get ready to go in. As I entered the game, I felt a little nervous, but I knew I was prepared. This was the opportunity I had been waiting

Today I woke up and I was feeling happy! I went from the down-under to get my breakfast. It felt a bit odd because freak wasn’t at my window. I stayed up stairs with grim and gram and we started having a nice little conversation Suddenly, i burst out laughing. For no absolute reason. Gram had got a phone call a few seconds later, her face turned pale, and her eyes were watery. She pulled grim’?”

After a successful season, my teammates, club coach, and parents told my varsity coach how well I had been doing; he told me he would keep an eye on me and to keep striving to
