Personal Narrative: Miss Big Sandy
Dazzling colors, fun displays, and lots of smiles. I have loved watching parades since I was old enough to remember. My favorite part of the Big Sandy and Yamboree parades was always seeing Miss Big Sandy. Even though her face has changed throughout the years, the symbol of Big Sandy remains the same. When I was 6, I was too infatuated with the pretty clothes and sparkling floats to ever truly think about what Miss Big Sandy represents. As I got older, and talked with the other young ladies that have been chosen, I realized that Miss Big Sandy represents our entire town. I learned that Miss Big Sandy isn’t simply parades and fancy dresses; Miss Big Sandy is a symbol of service for those who need it, and she stands for helping others. She volunteers,

    Personal Narrative: Deep Impact In Shelby, North Carolina

    Over the past summer I had the opportunity to go to Deep Impact in Shelby, North Carolina. Deep Impact is a mission camp that is run by The Baptist Men that gathers youth groups throughout the state to help the needy and to spread the Word of Jesus. There were different mission teams at the camp and I was placed on a construction team. On my construction team, we helped elderly and disabled people by building wheelchair ramps for them.The construction team had three supervisors, and they made the kids on the team do most of the work. We would do different kinds of work like digging out holes for posts, saw boarding, or screwing in decking boards. I really enjoyed this kind of work and it really made me feel good that when we finished, we were…

    Personal Narrative Essay: Miracle Brown

    It was a casual August afternoon in Minneapolis, people walking the down the sidewalk, strangers passing by. We were visiting my old hometown. I was walking with Beth, and we were messing around. I used to have an inside joke with one of my friends from fifth grade, “Girl you need to chill.” It stuck once I moved. Anyway, Beth had just told me to chill, so, I walked into the nearest cold building. Which of course, ended up being a meat locker… 15 minutes later I was coming out and saw an all too familiar pair of square glasses. Before I could see her face, she turned away. Her bleached tip hair swung across her shoulders. The dark skin, the hair and glasses, it had to be Miracle Brown. This is the girl who was one of my best friends in sixth grade. She started heading down the street, so I told Beth to meet me back at our hotel.…

    My full name is Autumn Lynn Schell. I am 16 years old, and I was born on October 24, 1999 in Reading, Pennsylvania. Cheering, dancing, and tumbling are the activities I love to do. Cheerleading is one of my favorite hobbies; it comes easy to me. My favorite food is macaroni and cheese; I also love oreo cookies. If I try, I can be a hard-worker.

I am the type of person just to leave alone for awhile so I can think.…

    Personal Narrative: Mama Duck

    There is no better way to bond with other people than to see them raw, vulnerable, and pushed to their bodies absolute limit at six o’clock in the morning, “Mama Duck, good run.” The nickname stuck. At first it was a little odd, but it grew on me really quickly. Anyone that I had ever once encountered my presents understood the name. It was cute, so of course, I went with it. However, no one understood my nickname more than my little ducklings- my cross country teammates.…

    Personal Narrative: The Big Day

    Today was the day. The big day. My election for Lieutenant Governor of Division 2B for Key Club, an international service club, was today. Fear and anxiety pricked my skin in rapid movements emanating from every pore. I rehearsed my speech for the fifth time that day. Upon arrival at the Fairfax Library, I urged myself to remain calm. I quickly scouted out the other girls who were present; one girl was dressed professionally with a folder in her hand. I knew that was my competition. The girl spoke eloquently and genially, she radiated enthusiasm and a certain warmth that I did not have. With every question that was asked, she answered with a smooth smile and high-pitched tone that was dripping with sincerity. I bristled inside; I had just been slapped. I was shrouded in a cloud of anxiety and anxiousness. Suddenly, I was dragged from my reverie.…

    Personal Narrative: My Trip To California

    I am sure it happened as easily as this: We were sitting around the garage shooting the bull during a cold winter snap. Thoughts turned to motorcycle rides and things spring and summer. For once, it wasn’t me. Mrs. K was the one to mention going to California. We hadn’t taken a trip the summer before, and she said, “We ought to ride to California and take the PCH along the coast.” Probably, no one jumped up and started packing, but several certainly starting thinking. One mention leads to another mention which leads to final plans. For me, it was a dream I have had since I watched Then Came Bronson and spent my time reading On the Road. For all of us, we researched the trip and found places and things…

    Personal Narrative: My Growing Up In Southern Louisiana

    Growing up in Southern Louisiana, I was raised in a “weird” way. I was taught to call all adults ma'am and sir when I was speaking to them, and “ya’ll” happens to be a regular word in my vocabulary. Loving the bayou, and being polite to everyone who earned it, is what I guess people call weird here in Colorado. I spent most of my life in Louisiana. It's my home.Everything about that place reminds me why I love it so much, most the people, the food, and pretty much everything except the weather. Everything was going great until I got home from school one day and my mom told me that we were moving.…
