Fictional Narrative
The sky is so blue, birds flocking through the air, it almost made forget why I was standing there. But yet this day felt so familiar. Kind of like my eleventh birthday....... all my friends were there, in my small house in Ohio. All my loved ones had shown up, even the girl I liked was there. It was like a dream come true. I still remember those days when I was happy.
Times back then were good until that day when it all began. It was an average day there in Ohio. Dad went out to work to his office and mom went to the school to teach. Meanwhile, I went to school, with all my friends not aware of what I had coming. And then… when I got home all saw ten cars parked outside. I knew something was wrong, so I ran inside. Millions of things ran through my head and as soon as I opened the door the news burst out.
“Chris I have to tell you something” my mom said. Her eyes looked like they were holding back millions of tears. “What happened?” I replied worriedly. “Your father passed away”. Then there I could not help it but to cry as well.
Days passed by and no one said a word. Until we decided that maybe it was time to move on and start over. My mom got a new job down in New York; it looked like a perfect way to resume life. And actually at first it was. The kids at school seemed cool and my mom seemed have been enjoying herself. Even though you could tell deep inside she truly wasn’t.
My new friend Adam came over a lot to our apartment, at time, I thought he was my best friend. Then we got a little older and we got new friends and people started changing. Time went by fast and there was no stopping it. Every day my mom seemed more and more unhappy with her new job and for me everyday was a new chapter of a Shakespeare story. With all the stress I just didn’t no what to do.
And now…... I’m not sure how I got here but I’m standing at the edge of my hotel building’s rooftop. On top of that 50th floor, the people looked like little ants. Moving fast but no one truly

    Trying to go to school the next day. Standing in the shower thinking maybe if I dont get out I wouldn't have to start my day and move on with it all. But as the water turns to a shivering cold I realize it’s all too real. Pushing through the first five periods of the day, the last three seemed as too much. Feeling as if I will never be able to be happy again. All these gloomy days crafted me into who I am today. This whole experience making me grow up just a little bit faster, and a little more mature and understanding seeming as I already live the life as an adult, but only being a…

    The transitioning summer from grade 7 to grade 8 was an exceedingly challenging, demanding and painful one. During this particular summer, my mother was going through a divorce with my step-dad, Michael, and her everyday attitude and mental stability was greatly affected. Every night I spent with her that summer, consisted of tears, personal problems and having to hand-feed her anxiety pills on an almost hourly basis. I can say, without even the slightest doubt, this was the worst summer, if not the worst period of time in my entire life and had a harsh negative impact on my…

    I moved to Alabama from Texas at the beginning of my 6th grade year. The day before leaving, my best friend since kindergarten came over and stayed the night with me, dreading falling asleep and waking up to a nightmare of having to say goodbye. The morning came and so did the tears, I had packed up my entire life, said goodbye to all my family, friends, my house, and even my dad. How was I, an insecure, and VERY shy little girl supposed to just leave everything I knew and loved and start all the way over when my life was just getting started? It was a long 12 hour drive from Dallas, Texas, to little town Guntersville, Alabama and it gave me a long time to pity myself, hate my mom for moving me, get over the hate and be excited, and then be upset all over again. Alabama. Why Alabama? We had a choice, Alabama or Florida, and we chose here??? Me being a stubborn, bratty, over dramatic pre-teen, I just couldn’t wrap my head around it. I thought the world was ending.…

    “Everything will change…” was practically the only thing I could think of being a 13 year old girl with a firm friendship with her 16 year old sister. The summer of 2006 was when I discovered my mother was packing up her things and moving to Athens to work on her PhD in Psychology at the University of Georgia, while my 3 brothers, younger sister and I would be living at home with my dad. It did not bother me much at all when I found out my mom was moving for a temporary time to further her education, considering my parents are still married and she would only be living up there for two years. We would also get to visit her on the weekend, and she would also visit us on the weekends. Plus my mom and I do not get along well, so I figured I needed a break from her. On the other hand, I did care she was taking my big sister Amanda with her.…

    Last April, I went abroad in order to see the Beyoncé new concert in Paris; what I didn´t know is that I was about to experience the most stressful journey in my whole life. When the tickets came out on sale, five minutes where enough for the on-line page to sell them out completely worldwide, so I thought I wasn’t going to be able to see the show. Desperately I entered to a ticket re-selling site on the web and I bought two tickets for a very exorbitant price (four times the value of the official page price). Two months passed and I didn´t get the tickets that the web page was supposed to mail me. I spent at least a week trying to call the manager of the page but it was quite difficult, but a week before the date I planned to travel, they told me that they were going to deliver the tickets at the entrance of the concert. A week after that we went on a plane to Madrid and the stopover was so long that we had to spend the night over at the airport; I remember I slept on the ground because I was terribly exhausted. The next day, as soon as we got to Paris we went to the stadium where the concert was on, the next day. We went to the stadium´s ticket-office and told them our little inconvenient and the lady told us that the specific web page we used for buying the tickets was a scam, and that she wasn´t sure that they will appear the next day to deliver the tickets. The next day, we went to the stadium at 5 o´clock in the morning to make the line for the standing position at the concert, 200 people where there a week before us so they could be up front, we were totally resigned. But then somebody told us that if we had to pick up tickets we had a different entrance, so we made a new line at another gate in which we were first. Five hours late we found out that the concert organizers had a strike a few days before and there were a lot of tickets that weren´t delivered so they told us that in order to make up for that, we were going to enter before…

    Well it was a chilly early morning with bright blue skies in early September. The birds were out and singing with a smooth and majestic melody. I was only four or five and about 3’5 with a fresh new haircut. I remember I was a nervous wreck with a sad look on my face for the simple fact that it was my first day in a room filled with strangers. As the minutes would pass by waiting in the humid office with my parents on some paper work that needed to be done I would constantly have that thought in the back of my head on how thing would be in that new room that I was destine to go. Then came that dreadful sentence that I didn’t want to hear, “Well everything here is done. Carlos is now able to go to his new room.” Walking down the hallway to the room it seems like the hallway would expand and we were walking forever. To my surprise I turn my head in a sad manner to be surprised that we have not moved that far from the office.…
