Personal Narrative: National Honor Society
When I was a National Honor Society Member at my High School, we were able to work with a program called VIP Soccer in which volunteers played with and taught special needs children the game of soccer. It was actually my favorite event within our organization especially when we got to see how happy each child was and the smiles on their parents’ faces when they saw that their son or daughter was having fun. Eventually, I was so inspired by this movement that I actually started a similar program but at my local golf club. How I got this started was actually by meeting the owner of the golf club, and the parents of my teammates on my school golf team. After a couple of months of planning and talking to more interested volunteers, I was finally

    Personal Narrative: My Eagle Scout Project

    One might wonder what a fifteen-year-old was doing standing atop a thirty-yard dumpster, chainsaw in hand, and yelling, "Give me more! It can hold more!" During my ninth grade year I saw an opportunity to complete my Eagle Scout project, helping the Lenape Valley Church remove massive piles of downed pine branches fallen during an early March ice storm, creating an eyesore and complaints from the local community. The project I was tackling was Herculean, and I, compared to now, very inexperienced at leading people. But it is Boy Scout’s duty to give back to his community and I had promised that the enormous piles of branches and snow would be gone before Easter.…

    The Four Pillars Of The National Honor Society

    During my 2 years involved in the National Honor Society I've come to know and love the four pillars of this organization. These four pillars include: Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character. Considering that scholarship is characterized as a commitment to learning, this pillar has taught me many things about the importance of knowledge. Scholarship has made me realize that knowledge is power, diligence and effort if key, and that you should do your absolute best regardless of the outcome. The pillar of service has taught me how to give back to my community. I have learned through the pillar of service that you should reach out and help anyone without compensation or recognition. The pillar of leadership has taught the importance of…

    Personal Narrative: The National Junior Honor Society

    One day in seventh grade something wondrous occurred to me. At the end of the school day I was packing my belongings that I would need when I materialized at my house. Though while I was preoccupied, I espied something in my mailbox with my eyes suddenly. In matter of that fact, I decided to walk over to it. I slipped my hand through it and then grasped a letter. In result, my body very slowly went to my seat and I opened it. I couldn’t believe my eyes! I was accepted into the National Junior Honor Society. I was so thrilled that I was going ditzy with my adrenaline rising, at least in a fine way. I started cavorting up and down. My body could not stop jumping,vibrating with joy or talking about my news. So I told all of my friends in my class…

    Personal Narrative: My APUSH Class

    My APUSH class was perhaps my favorite class my junior year despite it having been so rigorous and time demanding. I really enjoyed the material and although it was a large amount of work that was required, I still never found myself not finishing everything. It is for that reason that I really value this notebook. I did not fail to miss a single day of doing homework in the class and really managed to fit a whole year's worth of vocabulary in one single notebook. I think that to me it really represents the time and work that I put into getting everything done as a mean of getting myself prepared for the AP exam. I would always just sit with my friends, trying to complete the homework, it gave most of us something in common to complain about…

    This August my mother and I packed my small sedan to the brim and traveled six hours to see my dream school, Rice University. While my mother was hoping I would realize that the University of Oklahoma was a better choice I was hoping she would see what I see. Passing through the bustling city life of Houston brimming with Fortune 500 companies we pulled onto campus. My mother let out an audible gasp as we passed under a brick archway that led to a campus of beautiful greenery , art installations ,architecture and soft sand bricking. Beginning our tour we were shown the William Marsh Rice sculptor where our guide told of the infamous 180 degree prank.…

    Personal Narrative: Brandeis University

    Where I wanted to go to college, was a question that loomed over my head for most junior year and the summer before senior year. Deciding where you want to go to college is a major milestone decision, one which I carefully thought over. I knew I wanted to attend a liberal arts college, because I believe the mind is a garden that requires cultivation. I knew I wanted to be in an environment that really pushed me to think conceptually and without censor. When Brandeis University, in Waltham, Massachusetts, came up in my college search, I was immediately intrigued. Brandeis has a long history of promoting social justice and giving back to the community, so I was delighted when I got my acceptance letter in February!…

    Personal Narrative: Honor Vs. Honor Roll

    Throughout the past two years, I’ve received a considerable amount of academic awards and honors. Starting in seventh grade, I received a position on principal’s list for all four quarters in the year. This is one step higher than the honor roll, and is similar to the high honor roll. you have to maintain at least a 94 GPA in order to acquire this award. In addition to this, I also won 1st place in the STEM fair, and I qualified for the regional fair. Unfortunately, I did not receive any awards at the regional level, however it was a honor being able to attend. Eighth grade was similar to seventh. I obtained an average above a 94, and remained on the principal’s list for all four quarters of the school year. In 8th grade, I continued participating…

    Personal Narrative: The Yearbook

    The intact blue and green wool tartan-covered yearbook in my hands softly rekindles memories of my boarding school friends, faculty and fun. Yes, we girls studied and goofed off like most teenagers; perhaps more intensely because we were cooped up together for four - often fantastic - years. While the title and date of the yearbook are clear on the binding, the nameplate on the cover now only partially reveals my then-name. This little gold plate with fractured black letters makes me think of how my name changed (more than once) over the years and how my long-ago self remains deeply embedded in the person I have become - and will yet…

    “Honor! Courtesy! Integrity! Perseverance! Self-control! Courage! Community!” Every Tae Kwon Do class began and ended with the recitation of these tenants. Because of my small stature and extreme shyness, I became a victim of bullying at a very young age. My father enrolled me in a local Tae Kwon Do academy in hopes of instilling courage and self-esteem, but I learned so much more.…
