    Personal Narrative: The Amazing Amanda Doll

    When I was younger I loved dolls; I loved playing pretend with them, dressing them up, and pretending that they were real. For my younger self to hear of a doll that not only could talk but could move her eyes on mouth on her own was mind blowing. I saw a lot of cheery commercials on television for a doll called Amazing Amanda. It was so cool; the doll even had the same name as me! When I ripped through the colorful Barbie wrapping paper Christmas day and saw that it was the Amazing Amanda doll I jumped around like a grasshopper and raced to go find batteries. I played with that doll everyday, singing songs with her loudly which probably sounded more like off-key screeching. It was incredible to me to watch her glassy, blue eyes blink and…

    Personal Narrative: Elaine Mackay

    Elaine MacKay stood out like a sore thumb in the midst of the manicured nails of Phillips Academy. Short, overweight, with a flat face that only a mother could love. Elaine held herself high with pride as the only student at Phillips to have Down Syndrome. The rest of us avoided her. Why would I, a member of one of the most popular cliques in the school, ever stoop down to her level? She had created her own level of the food chain, one that many of my fellow classmates called the ‘Retard Zone’, but was nearly indifferent to the levels above her. She tried to befriend everyone she came into contact to, which I assumed was to make herself feel better. But to my surprise and disbelief, she would successfully change my point of view on her strange ways, and in a way I never expected.…

    Personal Narrative: How Children Grow Up

    As most children grow up, they are aware of their surroundings and take in everything they can understand which adds to their personality and their structure of life. As a child I developed at a level more advanced than the children around me. I learned to use a computer at the age of 3 years old. I read at an 8th-9th grade level while in the 5th grade. In addition, I could handle complex situations better than a average elementary student. The mindset I had as a child unlocked new doors for me. For example, I was not afraid to try new things and accept the lessons that came along with new opportunities. Also, I learned from my parents that going down the path of success isn’t always easy. Lastly, I experienced that life is filled with…

    Personal Narrative: My Perception Of Gender

    Gender was always a very tricky subject for me until I finally realized gender and sex are two different things. So, gender was never something I ever really thought about. I was a girl and that was that. It was definitely assumed for me based on my biological “label” of female at birth. I grew up with two sisters so there were lots of baby dolls and Barbies. But as I got older, aspects of other gender(s) became aware to me that I decided I wanted to incorporate into my own gender. I did not like wearing dresses so that “norm” was thrown out of my wardrobe options. I was much more comfortable in pants and a t-shirt playing outside. I became very interested in sports and always wanted to be outside shooting baskets or throwing around…

    Personal Narrative: The American Girl

    I was at my new school, sitting in my fourth grade classroom, filled with buoyant children and buzzing with the energetic noise of their talking. I could hear all of the voices of those at my table clearly. I could see their lips moving along to the sound of their voice, forming words. However, I could not understand what they were saying to me. At that moment I felt like I was watching a movie on mute. As much as my classmates attempted to make me a part of their group, I was still a spectator among them.…
