Adelaide Morris-Personal Narrative
It was a sunny day in San Francisco, California, and Adelaide Morris was waking up for school. She smiled as she looked at her calendar, which showed that it was April 4th, 1978 and there was a field trip. She got out of bed and started getting ready. She put on her favorite red blouse and a pair of blue jeans. She brushed out her jet black hair and started on her makeup. Once she was finished, she went downstairs to the kitchen and made herself some toast. After she finished her toast, she got up and put her shoes on. She walked out of her house and started walking to her friend Maria’s house. When she arrived at Maria’s house, she saw Maria waiting on the porch for her. “Adelaide, you are so slow,” Maria said as she stood up. “I’m sorry

    On the first day of practice he introduced himself as “Jimmy Johnson” our defense line coach. He had a beer belly and glasses and slick wet hair and nappy eye brows and an itchy musty beard. His breath smelled like dog liver. My first impression of him is he just looks weird and mean. We began practice we ran around cones. We went over plays. Where we should line up according to the offense. Coach Johnson always thought he knew what is best for us. He would have running like slaves on D’jango. Coach ran the soles off my cleats. After all this running, my girdle begun chafing creating a rash like an unchanged baby. My feet would always hurt after practice. Looking down my feet was throbbing like a heartbeat. We would run all the lines on the…

    The narrator in this story is a 1. Person narrator and the story is therefore told from the narrator’s point-of-view. An example of the first person narrative is already in the opening line: “Yes I’m from New York” I say shifting my drink to my other hand.” This in-medias-res opening throws us right into the story without telling when or where we are. It informs us that the narrator is from New York, and indicates that she isn’t there at the moment. The setting of this dialogue is probably a bar somewhere in England, seeing that she has a drink, and that the one who answers her in the end has an accent that “reeks of Cambridge.” Because the narrator is not in her hometown, the interior monologue following the answer to the strangers question is almost nostalgic. She is thinking about the entire story of her family coming to America and reminiscing about her annual trips. “When New York is white and red and green. I sit in the window of my sister’s apartment watching the snow.” If the narrator had been in New York at the time, she would not have been evoking all these memories. So I presume this dialogue takes place in England.…
