Personal Narrative: A Day At Holly Lake
Holly Lake

I was so excited to go and have so much fun at Holly Lake. One day in June we went to Holly Lake we decided to go to the lake during the morning. Me, my Mom, Dad, Maddie, Matt, Tammy, Maddie’s Grandparents. We all went down to the lake. I jumped in the water I was scared I thought I was going to die. “I hate fish!” I shouted. Everyone asked me, “then why are you swimming in a lake?” I said, “because i like swimming.”

I started swimming, I told everyone that I was scared of wild, scary fish, so maddie’s grandpa asked “ you are, ok?” So Maddie’s Grandpa bit me like a fish with his hand. I jumped onto my mom’s float. I flipped her over and she lost her glasses and she spilled her drink. I was so scared, everyone started laughing.

    It’s midnight and as I expected, a black Ford F-150 Truck with tinted windows pulls up to my house. I walk outside holding a backpack with my portable speakers and a baseball bat. However, I quickly change my mind and leave the baseball bat inside the house. I hop into the back seat of the truck and am greeted by four large burly kids. “What’s up Matt?” says Ben who is sitting in the drivers seat. With music blasting, Ben takes off the parking brake and presses his foot down onto the gas pedal. Soon we are heading down dark winding roads as we listen to music from Captain Murphy, which contributes to our mischievous mood. Finally we arrive.…

    I was a camp counselor at Camp Wabikon ‒ a co-ed overnight summer camp located in Temagami, Ontario for children who are 6-15 years of age. Along with teaching Red Cross swimming and lifesaving and Tennis, I was my cabin's 'parent' for six weeks. Therefore, I was present with the children at all times. In essence, I was the leader of my cabin's the physical, social and mental development.

    This past month of July has been a handful! The summer of 1863 is definitely a time I will remember for the rest of my life! Yesterday, my siblings, my mother, and I fled away from Manhattan while father stayed back and secured our home and salvaged whatever he could. Many things in our house were wrecked and damaged from the violent draft rioters. Perhaps it was because only white men were drafted. If anything, I believe that they shouldn’t be taking all of their anger out on us black folks. It's not our fault! This was one of the worst rioters the country ever saw! Today, we arrived into Providence, Rhode Island with only our garments on. But, we weren't the only blacks that left. Thousands of blacks quit New York and left! Some folks even…

    Every year, my family on my dad’s side goes rafting down the Truckee river. It has always been a tradition to go to tahoe over the summer, and go rafting one of those days. Over the years, we have had many fond memories, like water fights with water guns, and pushing people into the water. First, we go down to the place to rent the raft, they set up our family with two, and then we go down the river until there is a bend where they take you and your raft out. At the end of the place where you can raft, there is a little grill that we would go to for lunch.…

    Everyone has their own community or organization for which they belong to. Within that community you tend to find who you are and what you are about. For me I found my identity in being an outdoors man. Being an outdoors man at my young age seems to be rare at this day, but that doesn’t prevent me from doing something I love and appreciate. Growing up with my family full of avid outdoors men helped influence me and only made my identity stronger.…

    After breakfast, the parents went out on the lake to have “adult time.” So my cousins and I decided to go riding back in the woods. Chelsea and I were doing wheelies on the four-wheelers. Wheelies are so fun; I get the feeling of butterflies in my stomach every time I do them. Jessica was riding her four-wheeler backwards. Johnathan was doing tricks on his dirt bike. We were doing all kinds of tricks and cool things. We even had races to see who could go the fastest. Then we found a spot in the dirt that was really wet. We saw that is was safe, so we started playing around in it. We did what most people call “mudding.” We all had a blast until Johnathan flooded his engine, and Chelsea started complaining about having mud all over her. So they decided to go home and let Jessica and I keep riding.…

The snake was dead and not wanting to upset him, I replied, "The snake is basking in the sun so it can get warm".…

On November 31, 2004, my sister, Haley and I got off the bus at the Bank. We raced each other inside so excited to see everyone, and everyone had a terrified look on their faces, like they weren't excited to see us the way they normally are. Haley and I just kind of looked at each other. My mom was nowhere to be found. We had no idea what was going on. Finally, Lorie Spaulding came running to us and asked, "What are you all doing here?! Both of you was supposed to go to Tonya's (My Aunt)." Haley replied, "But mom told us to get off here. No one at school had told us any different. "Well, come on and I'll have to take you girls home." insisted Lorie.…
