Personal Narrative: Drowning
My life has been turned around since that day when I felt like I drowned
I have seen the down side of life
And I feel like I need to fly some of these days
I wonder why I had to stay

I feel like I don't have a name
I had friends but no one would stay
I wish that I could fly away into the sky
I need someone to tell me to stay here
But I also feel as if I disappear

I would like to be free
From this curse thats found me
I have nothing to say to you
That’s worth you’re while too
I need someone who cares
But all around me are empty chairs

If someone would talk with me
If someone would walk with me
If someone would stay with me
I would finally be happy

    Personal Narrative: Springboard Diver

    As I stood on the board, I imagined myself soaring through the air, picturing every move I made until sliding into the water as perfectly as possible. I competed as a Springboard Diver for six years. Diving helped me discover and further explore the nature behind what motivates me and keeps me mental strong and capable, which is now an immense aspect of who I am. Although I am no longer a Springboard Diver, it still influences aspects of my everyday life. Diving is unique in how it is more mentally taxing than it is physically.…

    Personal Narrative-Full Lake Experience

    The University of California, Merced’s Men’s Basketball team was so enthusiastic, as well as full of energy that humid Saturday morning as they prepared for an extraordinary adventure at Lake Yosemite. Each player greets Dr. Boggs, also thanking him for taking his time off from work in the health center to take them to the lake. Dr. Boggs, feeling warm-hearted and comforted, appreciated the well-mannered basketball players and cannot wait to get out in the lake. “I have brought my boat out here today so you guys can get the full lake experience, but I need to go over some safety procedures. I also need to explain to you all what exactly we will be doing today.”-Dr. Boggs.…

    Personal Narrative: Devil's Lake

    We were ready. Paddles in hand, canoe by our side, personal floatation devices, knee pads, and cameras. The afternoon sun shined on the lake, reflecting it across the calm waters. Crowds of people were enjoying their Sunday afternoon on North Beach at Devil’s Lake State Park. Young children stumbled on the moist sand and shallow waters as they tried to catch tadpoles with their small buckets. Soothing, a gentle breeze passed by as we walked towards the edge of Devil’s Lake. Marveling at the majestic mountain of cedars around the lake and smelling the damp sand, my dad, little sister, and I were all set to take on our first wilderness inquiry; canoeing across a lake. It was safe to say that we were in for an exciting adventure…

    Essay On Drowning In Salt Water

    For my conclusion I will write about the differences between people drowning in freshwater compared to people drowning in saltwater. When someone drowns it means that their lungs (respiratory system) has been blocked from receiving oxygen by a liquid. Majority of the time it is water that people drown in. “Drowning is the third most common cause of accidental death worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury related deaths” (MedicineNet). Water is the most common way that people drown, but the two types of water that is common to Earth in masses are freshwater and saltwater. Both can drown you but in completely difference ways.…

    Allegory Of The Drowning Child Essay

    Singer’s allegory of the drowning child poses a complicated battle between morals and selfishness. His point that one is morally obligated to save the lives of others puts conflict in their mind. Of course someone will save a drowning child thrown into their path, but whether or not they go out of their way to find the child to save them is entirely different. Singer needs to first recognize where moral obligations come from in order to properly assess what they accomplish. I am morally obligated to go out of my way to help charities, and do, but not everyone else is.…

    Personal Narrative: The Wave That Changed My Life

    Nearing the end of the tube I can almost see the shore, It feels as if I've been riding this wave for days. This wave is my hurdle in the ocean that is life, choppy at the beginning but slowly passing by. The ocean has many waves, one for each surfer to ride, my specialty wave happened to be dyslexia. It was in the second grade that my teacher first realized I was different from the other students, because I had yet to read my first book. My parents had found this odd as well, and took me to see a neurologist, who diagnosed me as having dyslexia. I did not quite know what this meant at the time, I only knew that it was the reason I could not comprehend the topics as easily as my classmates.…

    Essay On Drowning In Fresh Water

    Drowning, also defined as a respiratory impairment caused by being in or under a liquid, restrains one’s intake of oxygen. The lack of oxygen prevented from being distributed throughout the body causes it to slowly shut down then the victim will eventually go unconscious and sometimes die. Although drowning restricts one’s breathing, drowning in freshwater, and drowning in salt water will react in the body in two completely different ways (Helmenstine, “Drowning in Freshwater).…
