Personal Narrative: My Trip To Kansas City, Missouri

It was a nice summer morning we I was all of a suden shoke like turbulence on a plane to wake up. It turns out I slept threw my alarm to wake up for the day. It was about 11:00 am and today we were heading to Florida and our flight takes off at 1:00 pm. You may think that we had time to make the airport in Milwaukee but, we had to drive all the way to Chicago, Illinois because there was no flight for Florida in Milwaukee. Luckily I had packed the day before with the rest of my family so all we had to do was wait for our aunt Lisa to take us to the aiport in Chicago. She showed up five minutes later with a mini van and there was about seven of us jammed in there. It was alright for me because in our family if you called “shot-gun” or “I

Have you ever been to Atlanta,Georgia before?The time i went to Atlanta,Georgia was month I have ever had. I got to hangout with my cousins,family,and friends. We had so much fun with them because we did something so much fun.We went to Atlanta,Georgia to go visit people.

I have written many essays since I was in middle school yet most of my writing was not that important besides for a grade. Yet there is one piece of writing I wrote that change my life and felt that it had an important impact to The City of Chicago. My teacher during that time wanted the class to enter in a citywide competition, which is called “Do The Write Thing”. It is a way for students to voice their opinions on how to stop the violence in Chicago. I wanted to help reduce the violence in Chicago since many youths are being killed in the streets every single day. In my paper, I mainly focused on three body paragraphs. The first one was why the violence in the city was increasing. The second one was some type of violence that I have witness in my own personal life. The final paragraph

Today my Hilarious Fiend Jasper and I will be leaving Dupree around 2:00. We will be traveling 2 hours 20 minutes and One Hundred Forty Five miles. To Rapid City South Dakota

The pleasures of Rapid City were in my sights when I asked Malory to make the 2-hour trip with me.To begin our trip to Rapid, we would get in my cobalt, and drive to the Dupree Cenex to fill up on snacks, drinks, and gas. Mallory would get Root Beer and Pringles. I would get M&M’s and Cherry Sprite. We would get in the car, after we filled it up with gas, put on our favorite music, and truly start the trip.

The city of Chicago has been displayed as a dangerous city in which all residents are affiliated with drugs, gangs, and misconduct of firearms. Whether someone fits into this stereotype or not, is normally based on their surroundings and their interactions with others. Growing up in Gage Park, named one of the worst neighborhoods, falling into this stereotype and becoming affiliated with drugs, guns, and gangs, would not be too hard for someone to do. However, I have lived in Gage Park my whole life and have not fallen into the status quo. I have had family members and friends fall into this realm of unpleasantness and watching them become another wrong kind of statistic is upsetting. I have been faced with the decision of continuing to have

In 1718 Spanish missionaries founded Texas taking it as a Spanish territory. Many whites started to go to Texas and began to take over. In March 1836 Texans revolted against their Spanish rule and declared their independence from Spain. Texas then became an independent nation, but Texas could not protect themselves from the Spanish attacks. On December 29th, 1845, after almost 10 years of waiting to be accepted into the United states, Texas became part of the United States.

During my trip to Louisiana this weekend, I made plans to meet two of my friends at one of our favorite restaurants. The racial composition of the group was two black individuals and one white individual. We were having lunch and catching up when a white woman who was sitting nearby with her two children came over to ask if my white friend could watch her children while she went to the restroom. She never made eye contact with me or my other black friend and the question seemed solely directed to the white individual of the group.

I can not describe how shocked I am at the moment. During the whole trip from Independence to the Kansas River, Abigail was becoming increasingly impatient. She felt more and more ill by the minute, and described her pain as feeling exceedingly nauseous and lightheaded. Soon after, her poor weak body could not walk any longer. She was incredibly unstable on her feet, and that is when she fully tripped and slammed onto the ground. Everything happened so fast… yet so slow. I felt like I have just fainted myself! Dan is checking up on her, and thankfully her heart is still beating, but it’s beating abnormally. He hopes to figure out exactly what is wrong with her.

MY mom and dad said that we were going some where fun so we got in the care to go to that mysterious place. Then we asked where we were going and they said it was a secret. The thing that grabbed my attention when we entered jelly stone park were we stayed for 3 days it was fun. we were at in St louis it was summer time when we went to six flags.

One year ago this morning on April 11/2016 I arrived to Charlotte, North Carolina after four day trip on Amtrack train. From San Jose, California to Charlotte, North Carolina.

After speaking with my grandma about Saint Louis in the past I got a sense that things did change from her time. My grandma use to live in the city for quit sometime. Back then the city was full of life, there were things you could do with your family and stay safe. She moved here when she was 15 from Mississippi to St. Louis Missouri in order to get a better life. When my grandma move here being a person of color she still wasn’t able to go to places because of the color of here skin. An example of this is that she had to move with people of the same skin color. I believe she move into the apartments that was meant to houses lower income people. I kind of wonder what people were thinking when they decide to hate someone simply because of a

Lila and I started off our morning with breakfast at the Cheshire before doing more exploring of St. Louis. First, we attended the Strange Folk Festival. Tons of shops, art, food, and music lined the streets. It reminded me exactly of festivals I used to go to growing up in the small town I lived in. It was great experiencing a little bit of St. Louis culture. After melting in the heat we made out way back to the hotel to cool down before our second night at the

The town of Louisburg is not necessarily the most visually appealing town of all time. Other than several fast food restaurants, good barbeque and the town Wal-Mart, there is not much that Louisburg has to offer. Louisburg College, believe it or not, does have its perks. As a current baseball player here at Louisburg College, it comes to no surprise that my favorite place here in Louisburg is Frazier Field. It is truly an honor to call such a beautiful facility home. Compared to other junior colleges throughout the country, Frazier Field is one of the nicest facilities around. There is truly nothing more beautiful in Louisburg, than Frazier Field.

Growing up, I was quite snobby about a lot of things, but music in particular was quite bad. Classic rock, grunge, pop-punk, and metal were “real” music; none of that rap, country or electronica crap… among other things. I played three-chord Green Day and Weezer songs on my beat-up Fender Stratocaster and thought I was hot shit. I was constantly tense and worried about the smallest things; refusing to try anything new. Fortunately for my own sanity, this would all change. I didn’t know it yet, but heading off to Topeka, Kansas would be a life-changer.
