Personal Narrative: My Trip To Elitches

Driving a car is not always what most teenagers think it is. Most beginning drivers drive uncontrollably because they think as if they are race car drivers. When I thought I was a race car driver, I drove without thinking, which cost me a trip in the ditch. You never realize how frightening a car wreck is until you experience one.

I was standing in line with my sister and cousin waiting to get on the “Viper”. We were at Six Flags having already been in the long line an hour and a half. We all went on our favorite rides, then we decided to go on the roller-coaster. This was going to be my very first ever roller-coaster in my life. Then the roller coaster conductor told us to get on the coaster. I jumped in, put my seatbelt on and listened to the safety precautions. Then the conductor pressed the button and we were off.

When we got to the park, my brother and sister went directly to one of the highest roller coasters. They were so pumped up while I was terrified to death. After thinking it through, I decided to skip the first ride and maybe all the other ones too. They just papered so gigantic, noisy and intimidating like a beast.

I learned about Elms after I got a recruiting letter from Coach Matt Dyer saying he was interested in my running abilities. So I went home that night and looked up Elms; where it was located, the majors they offered and what life was like on campus. I was very satisfied with all the answers that I got, not only did the college have a beautiful location about an hour and a half away from my home town, it also had their own fireplace to sit around. Their students were very involved in the local communities and got placed in well fitting internships that led to future careers. I contacted Coach Matt, letting him know I was interested and that I wanted to learn more about campus life at Elms. So Matt suggested I come down for an upcoming open house,

The ground looked up at me menacingly. After an agonizing 2 minutes, we reached the curve at the top of the hill. As we rounded the bend, I glimpsed the drop ahead. The butterflies drummed twice as hard now. Then, the end of the curve was upon me, and we stopped! “What happened? Is something wrong?” All of the sudden, the brakes gave way. A yell tore itself from my lungs as we flew down the hill. My hands gripped the armrests like there was no tomorrow. But then, after the initial drop, excitement flared through me. “This is the best rollercoaster ever!” I thought to myself. The coaster took me up, down, and all around. It felt like I was flying, we were going so fast. But, to my despair, all roller coasters end. As we pulled up to the dismount station, I thought to myself, “I’m never going to forget this!”

All I hear as i'm going down is ;Grunt, gorge! Plop,Smack,Splash.The slide throws me out and i'm now in an gigantic potbelly.That's when I caught up to my other friends.It felt good for a second but then,Sizzle,Fizz,Rumble.Awwwwww,it burns!It felt even worst than the lava in the restaurant. I sat there for 3/4 hours of burning, disintegrating with some of me over here, and other parts over there. Then finally it opens up and I am push out of the gigantic potbelly into an crazy fun roller coaster.

When thinking about the neighborhood, school has to come to mind. Mr. Ellis, my third grade teacher, prided himself on educating students. No matter the problem Mr. Ellis would try to help in any way possible, which without a doubt makes Mr. Ellis my favorite teacher. An example of the undying devotion Mr. Ellis shows Other than Everett, the Capital Area Career Center was one of the best schools around Ingham. Understudies could pick any class that fit their field of study. As the understudies work through their class they can acquire school credits which can trade to Lansing Community college or Davenport just to give a couple of cases. Assignments sanctioned us to learn the required information while being able to work at our own particular

I was definitely not riding it. My mom started bribing me and apparently it worked because all of a sudden I was standing in line for the roller coaster. As time went on we were at the beginning of the line and I could see it going. I didn’t know it went 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds. I started balling my eyes out and I was super scared. We got on and I was already closing my eyes and grabbing the leather bars. We were flipping and turning, I heard screaming, crying and super loud rock music. When we got off my mom bribed me with a pin to put on my necklace. I will never ride the Rockin’ Rollar Coaster ever

An outsider is someone that doesn’t belong in a particular organization or group, the orphan boy and the elk dog is a story that talks about an outsider boy that’s rejected by everyone around him because of his disabilities and difference between him and everyone around him. My personal experience about being an outsider happened 4 years ago and it was a very tough experience that I hope I’d never go through again.

What makes a student a good student? Typically we may think about a book worm stuck away studying in the dark as the “A+” standard. However, is that really what it takes to prosper in education? I believe that being an educated and intelligent person goes beyond book work and requires oneself to be sociable, confident, accepting, and prepared to face challenges. Recently in my senior year I have learned more about myself, and looking at one event in particular, realized how my ability to break a racial divide has prepared me for life after high school.

In my time at North, I have had countless amazing classroom experiences. The classes that I’ll never forget though will be AP Calculus with Mrs. Buckley, AP Statistics with Mrs. Schmid, and multiple advanced science classes with Mrs. McCreery. From the funny moments and inside jokes shared with classmates to the feeling of satisfaction after finally understanding a super tough topic, I will always have terrific memories of these classes. These classes taught me to challenge myself and to always stay curious. My experiences also showed me that hard classes are as enjoyable as they are difficult. It seemed that as the classes got harder, the stronger the bond was between the students and the teacher. My life will forever be changed because of

Many people have left legacies from when they were alive. Some are good, and some are bad. Those people may not agree with what they have left behind, and some may be perfectly okay with theirs. For me, I would like to leave behind a legacy that shows my family that I was a good person. I would want them to know that I had good intentions for my life and that I wanted to do good for myself and others. In this essay, I will explain what I would like my legacy to be like.

It was a beautiful day on August 13, 2017 I took my three children on a trip to Lancaster, Pennsylvania where they enjoyed learning about a different culture. Soon as we arrived at the Amish Village the children were asking multiples questions: Why, do they wear those type clothes? why they used bogies? Why, do they all look the same? Why, do they look so different from us? Once we got on the bus to start the tour the children seemed to be confused looking at all new things. We saw houses with buggies, horses, and little boys playing outside. The boys were wearing white and black clothes, and the tour guy immediately started explaining the reason of why they were wearing that type of clothes. The look on the face

I closed my eyes as the ride ascended from the platform and came to a stop at the peak. I opened my eyes to nothing but the skyline. I said,” Guys if I survive this I’m going to kill you all.” The moment of truth was upon me now. The Coaster was at the mercy of gravity as we descended the massive drop. In the split second I had before we fell off the earth I knew there was nothing I could do to stop ride. As I
