Personal Narrative: Tree Troubles

My imagination took over my sense of reason because I thought someone was outside as i was home alone but in reality it was my little sister outside knocking. It was on Friday night all of my family went to my aunt’s house around 7pm. I was doing my homework in the living room and the only noise that was in the house my music but it was very low and i was finishing up my homework i kept hearing banging noises. At this point my

We were all scared. My grandpa, dad and I running straight into the track. The only thought there was in my mind was, he isn 't okay. Making sure that he turns over and lays on his back as someone calls 911, I left to go get the cart from the trailer. As I left the track to get it, I start crying, fearing the worst. I run back the track and have my dad help me put the car on the trailer cart and pull it back to the trailer and run back to my uncle. As I got back to my uncle, he was talking some intolerable words. After a few minuets, I heard my name from him.

The family came to pick me up and they acted like they were nice and they loved kids but I was like hahaha….no, they took me to there house and took me up to my room that I was staying in. When I got there, there was another girl in the room and she was asleep. Her name was ashley. I remember that she was the only kid in the house that actually wanted to be my friend.

I had lacrosse practice on the hottest day of summer. The best day was going to jump off a cliff and die. Practice was done and I was hungry for food. I got in my mom’s car and asked my mom to go somewhere and get some food. We went to Taco Bell. I finished and was ready to go home and get a shower. We were going down the road and suddenly my mom got a phone call from my aunt. As soon as my mom started to talk to my aunt she started to cry and break down. She

It was the first Sunday of December morning when my father asked me to take some boxes to the basement, I had never been down there, as a kid I always thought it was scary, but know as a 19-year-old guy, how could I say no. I went downstairs with a couple of boxes, but could not find any place to put them. The area was a mess, so I decided that I would organize every box that was there. While I was organizing, I notice this one box hidden in the back, so, I decided to open it. Inside the box, there was a newspaper and a couple of burnt pictures. Therefore, I decided to read the article, I could not understand much, it was an 18 years old newspaper, but it talked about a burning house with two twin babies, It said that one had been saved with no harm while the other one was rescued later on with severe burn mark. It was a miracle that other baby had survived, they called him miracle Carlos, and his brother Richard. I stood there for a second before my brain processed

As I watched my program run, I was anxious—will it work? Will it fail? Even before I could verify that my alarm clock program worked, I already knew I was hooked on coding.

I thought I was gone died that day cause I never experience’s something like that before. We open the washroom door there were two huge trees in our living room and the roof cave in. My mother start screaming and crying, and the house down there street was all gone, but it was some houses that didn’t get hit. I come out and I could do was fall on my knees and start crying until I just couldn’t cry no more. My mother hug me so tight and I said I love you so much and I told her I love her too. There were power lines down in the street so my mother sent me for help and as I’m walking in the street and I see this lady on the ground and then I run to her to see she was ok but it was too late she was already gone that’s when I knew she were dead. I didn’t know what to do so I found this blanket that I found in the street and I just cover her body. That was my first time seeing a dead body without it being in a casket. I couldn’t find nobody so I headed back home and told my mother what I did and she was in shock. But there was houses that didn’t get that’s when the neighbors came out and everybody was asking are you ok. I was so mad I didn’t want to say

It was a dark and scary night I had just got off of work. I was walking home because my car broke down. My house was a little bit away so I went to my friends house to get a ride to my house. I nocked on his door nobody answered. So I went in and the place was a mess. I went into the living room I saw him laying there he was dead! I had looked around the house to see if anybody was here, but nobody was here.

I whispered to my little brother "do you know what is going on" he whispered "No". We walked to get water. I was surprised at how calm my dad was. He said there was a cure. It was in his office on the other side of town that he could go get it. I demanded that "we need him". I will get it. He gave me a skateboard helmet and the dog leash. I grab our dog and started to get ready to leave i wanted to see where the zombies were and to do a test run of the skateboard. I grabbed my helmet and took off out the front

I walk down the street with my best friend along with my brother Chandler, then we drop her off, turn around into the sidewalk, walk in the door, moms in the kitchen, dad grilling out on the back deck. I dash outside where my dad is grilling chicken. We grill, talk, laugh, grill, talk, laugh, and then a lady comes up and says, “ Sur y’alls house is on fire!!” I freak out and run inside to tell my mom and Chandler. We go outside and look ends up it the neighbor across the streets house. It was one of my brothers really good friends’ house. His name is John. My dad runs through the house and out the door BAM! The glass door slams closed. I run to the front door, put both my hands on it and press my face against it so close the window was fogging

I babysit four kids in a house deep in the woods. I’ve been doing this for about 5 years now and I love it. It is so quiet out there and we never have any problems. The kids bedtime is 9 o’clock, and tonight was different because their parents weren’t coming home until the morning. It’s about 9:30, the kids are finally sleep and I’m in the guest bathroom getting ready for bed. I just put the alarm to make myself just feel safer. I remember this night so clearly. I was washing my face then hear like someone hit the window and before I could even even think of it what it was, I hear the whole window from downstairs shatter. Then the alarm went off I knew for sure the kids would wake up so I run down the hall to the youngest kid’s, Jose, room.

I decided to look around the house and see what it was like. There were four bedrooms, two bathrooms, A kitchen, living room, and a den. I just figured out there was a up and a down stairs. I decided to be brave and take a look up stairs. As I walked up the stairs the stairs creaked as i was shaking scared that I would fall in. BOOM!!!!!!!, a loud noise I hear. The house was so scary I was feeling very sick I just wanted to get out! There was no way for me to get out I was trapped.

When I got into the car, my mom started driving home. I was so scared about what would happen. In the rearview mirror I saw my sister smiling at me smugly. I glared at her because she was being very annoying. When we got home my mom stopped me, and had me stand outside.

Growing up I have tender memories of watching the majestic oak tree go thru numerous seasons. Each change of time brought on another milestone in my life. Climbing the branches I learned so much about life and myself. Looking down from the tree I learned more about others then I would being stuck on the ground alone. At the age of 5, I can fondly remember my step father building a tree house in that oak tree and attaching a rope swing. The addition of the treehouse brought a new love into my life, but it never took away love of my tree.

Keep in mind that at this time, I was terrified of storms. My older brother came into the camper along with our dog, Spackie. He told me to quickly shut the windows. I was, but also crying loudly at the same time. He eventually was screaming at me to shut up and shut the windows. Then as my mom walked in, a huge branch landed on the canvas of our camper. I started screaming. My mom told my brother to take me and the dog into the cabin. But because our dog was kind of stubborn sometimes, my brother had to carry him. So, I would run into the cabin first with my brother following. My mom stood by the door and counted to three. On three I took off for the door without stopping. I kept my eyes on the cabin door until I reached it. Since I was wearing flip-flops, while I was running, I lost one of my shoes, but I still didn’t stop. A couple of my older cousins were standing by the door and
