Personal Narrative: New My Lake House

On April 1, 2000, I was placed into a group home because of my behavior at the home. My dad and I didn’t get along. So he sent me to a placed called Bowman House. When I arrived there the first person I met was a lady name Alexander, she begin showing me around the units. Alexander was called the granny of the units. It was two units for the boys and girls. She took me to the boys unit first to look at the units. After I looked at the boys unit she took me to the girls unit. Where I would be staying. I had the chance to bond with Alexander, it wasn’t something I was trying to do it just happen. I had to stay with Alexander until the staff came back from picking the other peers up from school. An hour pass and the peers came back I had to go

At one point in anybody’s life, they realize that it is better to buy for you friends and family, not yourself. As a matter of fact, you might find that buying for your family and friends has a better result than buying for yourself. Even though I had my own money, I decided that I should get something for my whole family, not myself.

Someone broke into my car and about $400 worth of cash and items were stolen.

It was a breezy November day. Our school was on our way, heading to the Pine Lake Challenge Course in Bristol, Ct, a ropes course designed to challenge students to work together to overcome a challenge and accomplish a goal. As my friends and I were talking on the bus, we all thought there was no point in going to the course and that this was going to be a waste of time. Our class has a lot of loud, opinionated people and “always right people” so I thought we were going to get nowhere. When we arrived, my team encountered 3 challenges. Throughout these activities, we were forced to come together, and as a result we struggled, some went well, but others, we were completely stumped.

My heart raced with fear and nervous anticipation as I drove to Lake Pleasant in the rear of a stranger’s car behind my mother’s back. I knew this was not the right thing to do, I knew she was going to call me, but I still went anyway because I had a huge crush on one of the guys who I knew was going to be there. I had the story all planned out; I was going to go to dinner with some friends, spend the night at Cami’s house, and go to a late brunch at Arriba Mexican Grill. Little did my mom know that I was actually going to camp in the middle of nowhere with my best friend, a handsome acquaintance, and two guys that I had never met before.

I woke up and looked over to where Erik's mattress was, he was gone but I wasn't surprised. I laid my head back down and awoke about 15 minutes later. Erik was sitting on his mattress looking in my direction smiling.

I believe what sets me aside from others is my background and my open-mindedness accompanied with my positive attitude.

As Glenn sipped on the champagne he had grabbed to help wash down the handful of uppers he had just taken, he quietly mingled with everyone in the hall, doing his best not to bring attention to himself. Everything was going good too… that was until he spotted Mr. Bojangles slinking his little furry way through the room. “Son of a bitch,” Glenn whispered to himself in utter disbelief. “I’d recognize that wretched fur ball anywhere.” And, Glenn should have recognized the cat; he had stared all day, every day at the stupid feline’s pictures splattered all over Peggy’s desk for the past dozen or so years.

I look around in the dark room, below me were disgusting, filthy, diseased rats swarming around the plate that held food, several rats eating the bloody corpse of another dead rat. I turned my head once more to see the vicious blade two inches from contact. This is it! THIS IS IT! I am going to die… there's nothing I can do… one more swing and it's all over! The blade dropped lower, it’s making its final swing.

I thought back to two days ago with Matt and how badly I had treated him. I mean you can't blame me right? He totally deserved it because of what he did to me.

We just bought a new cabin 3 weeks ago, and this place is awesome! It's over by waulkon and right next to a campground, It is an awesome place to hangout. At first I didn't think it would be that cool, cause our old cabin was kinda boring, But this place! I mean wow it has a HUGE pool outside right off the deck and inside the house there is a HotTub Its awesome we even have a pool table. I'm excited to go and hangout there more and take some friends along too.

As our family watches the T.V. screen we sit hoping that our ticket may be the ticket, but we well know that the chance of us winning this lottery is like a one in a million chances.

terrifying meaning – and confirm, that what I had opened my door to wasn’t a crack-head! I’m not sure, even now – that there is an accurate description for what he or it was, but I’ll get into that later.

Edward stood up from the table, walked a few paces towards the exit and placed a hand on Tabitha’s shoulder. He turned and stared at the men and women seated in front of him.

Lying in bed in the middle of the night while sleep eludes me, a noise breaks through the silence. Oh my God! What was that!? Maybe it was just my imagination, or maybe it was just the house settling. There it is again! I must be hearing things. I get cold and my body starts to shiver uncontrollably. I peek to where the sound comes from and I could swear I see something through the dark room; it appears even darker than the surrounding area. Oh my! I think it just moved. My breathing becomes labored and I pull the covers over my head, trying to calm myself down while making my brain work through what just happened. Was I dreaming? Or did I just see a ghost?
