Personal Narrative Essay: The Death Of Noah Hairspray
Not so long ago a very memorable thing happened. A man by the name of Noah Tracy wrecked his car. What made this wreck stand out amidst thousands of other wrecks? Only one thing, Noah Tracy is my best friend. I did not find out about the wreck till long after, as I was in karate at the time and Mom didn’t want to get me. She did in the end have to get me out of class, as visiting hours were almost over. What made this unlikely is at the time I thought that he was a good driver.
When I found out I panicked to such an extent that I didn’t even eat before going to check on him in the hospital. On our way to the hospital all I could think about was all the times people have died from their injuries. I was terrified that my best friend would die.

    As my younger cousin, Travis, walked into the living room of my house, he looked for interesting things he could look at and touch. He started to slowly walk toward the broken, bottom half of our entertainment center. My siblings and I, enjoying our Thanksgiving dinner, watched him carefully as he curiously reached for a handle of one drawer in the entertainment center that contained at least 50 movies. He was so close to opening it when my brother exclaimed, “Careful there! The last guy who did that… he died!” Travis slowly backed away, turned around, and ran to his mother, but the real question is Who died?…

    I had a neck brace around my neck and IV’s stuck all in my arms. I started to panic, I was lost, confused and scared. My best friend was there in the ambulance trying to calm me down. But still, all I could think about was the reaction of my parents when they found out what happened. Once we got to the hospital, the paramedics took me to Emergency Care. The doctors ran many tests on me: MRI’s, CAT Scans, and X-Rays, whatever test you can name – they ran on me. As I waited for my results, the doctors came in and explained to me what happened. An intoxicated driver with a gun ran the red light and hit me in a head on collision. The driver not only totaled my mother’s car but also totaled his own car too. The good thing was that he was okay. I didn’t know what to be happier about; the fact that the other driver was fine or that the accident was not my fault. Selfish right? But I’m sure if you were me at the time, you would think the same thing.…

    My accident has made me a stronger person. I can now handle difficulties with ease. It’s made me realize how grateful I am to live and how thankful I am to have my family and loved ones. I know that although I consider myself an adult, I still have a lot of growing up to do. I have many lessons yet to learn. When I was little I had no idea what events life would throw at me. Looking back, I wouldn’t change any of them. They’ve helped me develop who I am. As a little girl, I didn’t understand that the big kids only stayed up late because they had to get schoolwork done. I couldn’t grasp that driving a vehicle was such a big responsibility with many risks accompanying it. I didn’t realize that having a boyfriend meant more than having a guy friend. Now that I’ve been playing varsity basketball for three years, I recognize that I now have little girls looking up at me with wide eyes, dreaming about the day they can step into my shoes. They’re who I used to be and one day they’ll be in my shoes. They’ll be my age and they’ll want nothing more than to be little again. Just like I did. Someday they’ll have similar experiences like me. They’ll become stronger, wiser, and smarter. They’ll be ready to take on the world. Just like…
