Personal Narrative: Being The Oldest Kid
Being the oldest kid in the family sucks. Why? I’m going to tell you. So fasten your seatbelts ladies and gentlemen because you’re in for a bumpy ride. A bumpy ride called my life. I get blamed for everything, and I mean everything. My little brother broke my mom's computer, must be my fault. My mom always finds a way to blame me.
“Mom, Gage broke the computer!”
“What?! Why didn’t you tell me! I’m so disappointed in you”. Yeah, that’s pretty much how it goes. I’m so lucky. I can’t do anything I want. My 11 year old brother goes to his friends house every morning just so he can go to school with him. But of course, when I go to my friends house once a week, it’s too much and I need to spend more time with my family. I’m always babysitting

    She was born on a busy summer night on September 13th 1918 in Brookline, Massachusetts. I always had the feeling that Rosie was a little different from the rest of us. On the day of her birth the midwife arrived late, and my theory is that this action deprived her brain of oxygen. We were proven right when she failed to advance from kindergarten and was deemed to suffer from intellectual disabilities. When this happened our parents began to conceal their third child from society.…

    I am sure you find many letters coming across your desk from parents who have taken the opportunity to ‘brag’ about their child. I know mine won’t be the best, but I hope that I do my daughter justice at the end. As most parents do, especially with their first child, they keep a folder of milestones their child has reached throughout their years; a folder filled with report cards, love letters, photos, school projects, etc. When I look back at one of Morgan’s Kindergarten project “All about Me”, I couldn’t agree more with the saying on the front of her book exclaiming, ”There is nobody in the world exactly like me!”. It’s exactly how I feel about Morgan.…

    Christianity has always been apart of my life. My grandparents, parents and siblings are strong christians and always encouraged me to become one. When I was about four I was at a Christian camp that my family had always gone to and I decided then that I would give my life to Christ. But honestly at four years old I had only given my life to Christ because that's what everyone else did. Through my early teenage years I had lost my connection with Christ. There were so many difficult situations I was going through that Christ seemed so distant from me and what I needed. But turns out what I really needed was Christ. At the beginning of my sophomore year I began to go to Young Life, and what a difference Young Life made on my life. Young Life…

    Growing up, I’ve had a hard time being socially active. I was the shy girl that everyone knew. Although being shy was my only way of being safe from others. I trusted only the people in my family. The reason for my shyness’ is: I didn’t trust people to not make fun of me, my birth father and his family didn’t like me, but I did trust my stepfather. My stepfather, has been my father since I was 3 years old, I call him dad and my birthfather I don’t call him anything since he’s never allowed to see me again. I had one friend growing up, his name was and is Seth Garner. I met him when I was 3 years old. Out of all the kids at the school, he was the only one that I could be myself around. While he was my friend, all the other kids would make fun of me to my face or behind my back. Why would they tease me? I know that I am not like other people. I know that I have a disability, but what I don’t know is why everyone had to make fun of me for it. Seth, although he was the favorite one of all the students, the popular kid, he still went out of his way to show me that I actually mattered. He taught me to say “no” or “stop” to the people hurting…

    Growing up fast is not necessarily bad; but in retrospect on my first year in college, I tried to grow up too fast and lost my youth. There is something about being young. The jokes. The fun. The spontaneity. But when does youth end? I do not think it should end. There is nothing wrong with occasionally goofing off or taking a random road trip once and a while. Moving to New York City and living right beside Wall Street made me believe that I needed to be serious and fully mature. I was already buying my own groceries, living in an apartment, and having to dress business casual every single day for class.…

    Every summer break, I dreaded summers final days as though it was the plague or some kind of virus. It marked the end of a time of laughter, friends and fun. I can remember sitting on my porch, scarfing down a juicy watermelon with many other kids my age. There was laughter and joy that filled this moment. Afterwards, we would get on our bikes and ride to the nearest friend’s home, hoping to find more summer activities to satisfy our summer time thirst for fun. But upon summer time coming to a close, the result was all kids my age having to return once again to the life sucking place known as middle school. But even middle school is known for being one of the most dreadful times in someone’s teen years, I have a place that my younger self would…

    My middle school years are very rough. Starting in 6th grade, I had drama all the time. Of course I never won the popularity test, so if being left out was a constant for me. I could be sitting by five girls and they would completely ignore me. In the mornings before school our lunch lady, use to sell breakfast burritos for all of the kids who got to school early. Every morning I would go and get a burrito, and every morning I would sit by myself and eat it. I remember telling my dad about all the drama and he told me that you are who you surround yourself with so I took his advice and I didn't talk to any of the girls that left me out at all. I would go out of my way to pretend they didn't exist and it helped. That was the first time I found…
