Personal Narrative: How Middle School Changed My Life
Middle school changed my perspective on how I view things, like for example; how we were all once or are going to be super immature .Getting bullied for having acne or being laughed at because I didn't smoke. “It could be a wild force of a undoubtedly they will influence you to not only loosen up but possibly become consummately liberated”(Armstrong, 87). I tried to fit in almost every group there was in middle school to figure out where I belonged. By the end of eighth grade I figured out that I don’t need people’s opinion in order to live my life, I should not care what people think about me. My own opinion of myself started to matter more. By becoming the wolf of my own pack, everything started to feel extraordinary. I felt as if I were

It worth every second of the day because of the amazing teachers, students, and staff. The curricular activities are as creative as a Picasso painting. The adventures I have gone on in Yough has taken me through life even more. The adventures have been vigorous, inferior, and patchy.…

    Personal Narrative: My Real Goals In Middle School

    I’ve always had lofty, perhaps unrealistic. In middle school, I naively assumed that I would be in top 12% of my class, by simply making A’s. I tried my hardest in every classes, but still wasn’t enough. I never reached my goal of being in top 12%, as a result my self-esteem plummeted. I started high school with high hopes once again. Perhaps even more naively, I pursued the goal of being ranked number one. I was too young to realize the concept of “realistic” goals. My biggest obstacle was my state of mind. I brought my self-down. I told myself the only way to be the best is to be better than everyone else. Setting such a high goal did help me in the end. After the second semester of freshman year, I received my rank. I was ranked number 10;…

    Personal Narrative: Changing My Life In High School

    If I were given the opportunity to change something, I would definitely choose to go back and do over the years I was in high school. During my time there, it was more important for me to do things that were more fun than sitting in class and learning. I thought that being in school was only useful for socializing and passing time. I only went because my parents forced me and so I never put any real effort into it, my adult life suffered very much because of it. Not having a high school education set me back in a lot of ways, and it closed many potentially successful job opportunities. After finally realizing what I lost, I decided to come back to school. I finally see doors opening for me now, that could have been open for me since the beginning…

    Personal Narrative: My Middle School Experience

    I was the kind of guy who always strove in order to get the highest grades but yet hadn’t decided what to do in the future. I wasn’t worried, I knew someday I would find something in what I was good at. I got to live with that thought for some time until I got to attend middle school, where I stopped worrying about my grades and managed only to pass the subjects. I spent most of my time sleeping due to the frustration of not knowing what to do in the future. Most of my middle school experience was tasteless. I hadn’t friends at all, and teachers used to discourage their students about their future. “You're not going to college, you’ll not be able to do it because you’re poor” used to say, Mrs. Vazquez, the math teacher who instead of giving her class, talked on how much his son had accomplished in college and how we would not be able to attend. That was about to change.…

    Personal Narrative: My First Grade In High School

    Life was good and merry. I had friends, family, and my laughter. Growing up and born in my native country gave me a feeling like I was wanted there, like I belong there. Laughing and playing were the things I do the most. I got a nickname,”bà điên”(crazy lady), from my random outburst of laugher. I was totally unaware of something that was soon to come and change my life. I was still in grade school playing with my friends when my dad came with the principle and told me that I am going to America.…
