Personal Narrative: Breaking The Law
At first, hearing that I’m able to do anything I want with no repercussions sounds amazing, but when I think more and more about it, it doesn’t seem as pleasing. When I begin to think about this concept, I think about things that increases my wealth and stuff that I just want. Of course, it would be fun to break the law for the first couple of times, but after that, it just gets boring and tedious. Not only that, I don’t think I could just do certain things. My morals and the way I grew up wouldn’t allow me. Furthermore, life would be pointless. There wouldn’t be a reward system. For example, I wanted a pair of shoes. My parents didn’t want to buy for me because they didn’t see them as something I needed, so I worked for it. I worked as a

He took my Class A misdemeanor charges and laid out everything I would need to do to get the best result. He was extremely professional and knows his way around the courtroom. Between my arrest and court date he was able to formulate a case that made the charges against me seem nearly unfathomable. On my court date they tried to push my case back even further and he, despite having other clients to attend to, returned back to my case and got my charges dismissed that day.…

On page 200 it states "I started pressing my lips into his cheek - just a hint of a kiss,.....I felt his shoulders release, and he made a little noise that was partly a groan, partly a sigh. He kissed my neck up, up, up to my ear......My body flushed itself with all the good chemicals that it takes to reserve for making out. On page 201 it states " He told me scary Jack the Ripper facts, and I had the sudden need to make out with him until I ran out of breath. I would have continued indefinitely if........."…

    About the only good thing that came out of me going to jail was meeting this guy named Lev. He was a skinny guy that did not look like he committed a vicious crime. He didn’t he was in jail for looting a dead German on Voinova Street. He was really rude when I tried to make company, but I could understand why because at times like these you can’t trust anyone. I asked him if he was a Jew and he did not appreciate that, because he thought I looked like a Nazi, but after he found I wasn’t he was ok with the question. I gave him some sausage because I figured he would be hungry. We both were wondering why they didn’t shoot us because that was the punishment for both of our measly little crimes. I started to take notes in my journal on Ushakovo’s…

    In March of 2007, I entered the United States illegally. Prior to this, I had been deported twice. Crossing the border was very dangerous, but I had to do it because in Mexico we are very poor. My father passed away 21 years ago, and my mom was left a widow with 11 children. My oldest brother moved out of the house, so I had to step up and help my mom raise my siblings. Where I’m from, there aren’t many jobs available, only on the fields and the pay wasn’t enough to support us. I didn’t want to cross the border, but I had no other choice. I ask for your forgiveness for breaking the immigration law by crossing the border and living in America illegally.…

    When we’re kids, we don’t have a single worry in the world. Our priorities are going to school and getting along with the rest of the kids on the playground. We don’t have to worry about taxes, or being judged (for the most part), paying bills, etc. So when do we reach the point where the real world comes in and kicks us in the behind? When do we come to realize who we really are and what our position is in this world? For me, the real world introduced itself at a very young age. And unfortunately I didn’t really understand what was going on at the moment. But for my parents, the situation was quite clear. I became a victim of bullying and racist comments.…

    I knew stealing was bad. I knew that if you stole you would get sent to this lonely and scary place where you don't get good food and you have to stay behind cold bars, where you have to use the bathroom in front of other strangers because you are not allowed to leave your area. I only heard stories about this horrifying place. My mom always told me stories and reasons why not to steal or commit any other sin. To be honest I thought this was a fable I had never seen this place and I know many people who have sinned but never got sent to this so-called “jail” place. My mother told me lying is bad and you could get sent to this “jail” place but, I have a friend who once lied to our teacher at school saying he forgot his homework at home when…

    A lot of people wonder is it possible to do something wrong and not feel guilty for it afterwards, the answer for me is yes. Although my answer differs for situations for this situation I don't think I have ever felt guilty. My sister and I are the same size, we love to share clothing and most to all times are civil about borrowing clothes. Then, there are some points when a simple day getting ready turns into a screaming match. The conversation starts out civil and then slowly turns into something very far from civil. A typical morning starts out very calm and quiet then usually all hell breaks loose after showers...when it's time to pick out outfits for school.…
