Roaring Engines-Personal Narrative

“ Father , what do you think this house was used for ? ” I asked in a hushed voice

It was late one day in June, and the sky was as blue and clear as sparkling wine. I sat back in my hammock reading the book Unbroken enjoying myself, and my uncle came up and asked me if I wanted to play poker with him, 5$ buy in. I jumped at the idea finished my page and went inside the house. Poker is a pretty big thing in my family and I’ve grown up playing and my uncle was one of the best, so spending time with him playing poker is always one of my favorite things to do. We proceed to set up the table, “Texas Holdem“ he says, Jacks to open”. Nothing weird, so we get the game going and the pots getting pretty big when all of the sudden he drops his cards. I stare the cards dead in the eye and see that i'm going to surpass him! He looks

“If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything“, is a favorite statement of my grandmother, Gloria Wheeler. Born in 1940 in Remus, Michigan, she was the youngest and the only girl in her family. My grandmother is a kind, active seventy-five year old with the heart of a lion. Even at an older age, she continues to sing and act in front of large groups and memorize large scripts. My grandma, better known as Gaga, has four children; one girl and three boys. Fortunately, my father is one of her children. My grandmother inspires me to work hard, do my best, and be selfless to everyone I meet.

I love muscle cars, I get it from my Dad. For as long as I can remember my Dad has owned a 1965 Ford mustang and a 1968 Chevy Camero. They have always been kept in the garage. The Ford was modified because Dad wanted a hotrod. The camero all original. I always wanted the Mustang. Always. I loved that little car and many are the times have I daydreamed of driving and looking oh so cool.

“We are going to ride the roller coaster,” my dad said, “Come on, it will be fun.” I

The way she looks on a long dark night With all of her chicken lights and chrome She is mean and green with enough light That it’s seen a hundred miles from my home She can haul a very heavy forty head All while going one hundred mile per hour All the other cattle truckers dread When they see my truck with all its power It has a screaming cat that won’t hold back And let’s the black as darkness smoke roll

Once upon a time, when I was a young girl, my mom told me not to go outside but who was I to listen. She headed off to work, as I looked out to see if the coast was clear, she was gone. I went to play with the other neighborhood kids, as soon as I thought the day was going to be too amazing outside in the hot sun, it only started to get worse. I could feel the wind in my hair and the heat on cheeks, when you think it was good it really wasn’t. Being out of the house for the time being I was getting dirty and began to get scratches on my arms and face.

It was a hot week of summer. My family was planning on going to Texas because my grandfather had fallen ill. My grandfather had been battling cancer for a while and was placed in a nursing home he did not like. When my family picked him up and brought him back home, we didn’t have any idea what was about to happen.

My friends and I were riding bikes in the road. The road was scorching, it hurt to step foot on it without shoes. Knowing me as a child, I was the one without shoes. I was too scared I was going to burn my feet, so I would have get off my bike in the grass. The sky was partially cloudy at noon that day. The clouds were more gray than white that day.

I have faced many challenging situations but I have not let them keep me from reaching my goals. One such situation was when I fixed a very problematic PT Cruiser. My father does a lot of odd jobs to support the family and a mechanic is one of them. I have been working with my father since I was eight. I wanted a challenge so I asked my father if I could replace it by myself which he agreed to. After I started to disassemble the car I realized that it was a bigger challenge than I had expected. It was only suppose to be a simple timing belt replacement but after I started to disassemble the car I realized that it was a bigger challenge than I had expected. I struggled to remove part after part because of its complexity and was tempted to give

He began attacking her, specifically bitting her. She managed to close the bedroom door to separate him form her and he exited the unit. When she ran out of the apartment to try and get help the man thought she ran outside. He ran outside to try and follow her but the girl was able to quickly close the security door to lock him outside. At that point someone else in a neighbouring apartment saw the man wandering around outside.

Once, a long time ago, I was REALLY angry. I was angry because there were going to be some BIG changes to my favorite tv show. The company that produces my favorite tv show, “Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends,” was going to get rid of three very important characters. Those characters were Edward, Henry, and Toby. The creation of the whole Thomas and Friends franchise would not have happened if it weren't for Edward. Edward, Henry and Toby are some of my favorite characters in the show. A little part inside of me died the day I heard the sad news.

It was a bright and warm summer morning when I woke from a good night sleep. Nothing prepared me for the dark, gloomy and sad day ahead of me. You see, this was the day that my cousin and childhood best friend passed away in an auto accident.

Even though it was summer it was still a comfortable morning where it was hot but with a perfect cool breeze.It was a time before my mom and dad had divorced.I ran outside and played barfoot in the grass while my mom and dad fixed up and old garden we had in the corner of our yard.We lived in a small but perfectly cozy house with a basement and my best friend Sasha,Sasha was a beautiful young dog at the time.

Back in the day, when I remember of me being a child and it was one of the best moment I could think of my childhood that happened in the summer, where good time start it and not too far off that it sound it like that we played in the water and we figured since it is a bit hot outside i was going to six flags and having some fun with our family and friend having an enjoyable time. Few things I would say about my childhood was also the summer time, when the sun was hitting my body my mom used to worry about me a lot so I would not get dark so she would tell me to put sunscreen on all the time even on my face and in front of my friends but back when I was little I did not get what or why she was saying that but now I get it on why. Sometime when I didn’t wear the slippers my feet would burn like I was walking in a fried pan but I were to just walk in grass with my wet feet and then a few seconds later same thing happens again so it was not point of walking in the grass but I still walked. I closed my eyes one time because my mom used to surprise me with friends coming over, going to swimming and having a picnic and playing with the park dogs, it would be so much fun but we had this curfew time to get back home and the only annoying thing was the bugs and bees around us that were biting out skins off and making us scratch and the dirt we use in or the mud that we use to make sand castles out of at the beach. I tried to look up and see if I would be getting some shade anytime
