Personal Narrative-Selling Ice Cream Truck
It happens so fast, we can’t control it, one second we’re chasing the ice cream truck
The next we’re driving one

We all wish we could pause it
But that is a wish that will never come true
And that little puppy that was just in your hand
Is now only found in your memories

And I have always felt like time slows down
Only in the worst of moments
But it only speeds up,
When you have feelings of contentment

The speed of light
Fast right?
Well not as fast as time
Passing by

And as friends come and go,
So does the time,
The memories,
All never to be seen again

    The Cheesecake Factory, I once believed that the establishment would be a bakery that primarily sold cheesecakes, sweets and such. Although, I’ve never heard much about the restaurant, or what it actually was other than people are familiar with the establishment and only comment on the cheesecakes. Yet, I had not known that that was the place I was dining in, I only believed under presumption of its name that we were going to eat at some other random place when I walked through the doors of the restaurant. Now the reason I say random was the fact that this place was not like how I imagined the praiseworthy Cheesecake Factory to be at all. My expectations of this place was exactly how Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory felt and as colorful as Tim Burton’s remake of Alice in Wonderland was.…

    In his short story "The Chrysanthemums," John Steinbeck writes of a married couple and examines the psychology of the unhappiness in their marriage. It is a good depiction of marriage in the 1900's which followed traditional roles, where the man is the chief breadwinner and the wife tends to household duties. The setting and the story's protagonist, Elisa Allen, offer similar traits after his own birth place of Salinas, California and his first wife, Carol Steinbeck. Although she is just considered a housewife, Elisa Allen also carries another passion of gardening and growing Chrysanthemums. Steinbeck uses vivid illustration with regard to the environment to make the setting seem callous and closed off, "The high gray-flannel fog of winter closed off the Salinas Valley from the sky and from all the rest of the world." (255) This environment is cause for Elisa Allen's need to have more affection in her life and gives reason for her using gardening as an expression of all the suppressed romance she feels. The climax of the story comes when Elisa is visited by a stranger who has gotten lost and their ensuing conversation and the outcome of the stranger's actions.…

    I remember the day vividly: the sizzling of food frying, children yelling, my tears running, it was the first time I adventured to Six Flags. The uneasiness of my stomach while swaying tens of feet from the ground on the Texas Giant petrified the adventurous spirit out of me. However, I did not realize that moment `would shape the next eight years of life, emerging in my memory at every unfamiliar experience I faced. It was my senior year when I declined an invitation to go camping with my friends an epiphany struck me. How many of these opportunities was I going to skip out on due to my reluctant manner?…

    I walked on a thin layer of ice in high school; every time someone judged me, I could hear the ice slowly cracking under my feet. My life was in a fragile and brittle state during my junior year. I didn’t have the support of my parents, nor of my closest friends at this stage of my life. My own parents, teachers, and classmates had lost faith in me; to them it seemed as if I had ruined my life and that I would no longer succeed. On the contrary, I was determined to be successful because now I had someone special looking up at me as their role model.…

    The younger me loved to be active and constantly moving around but as i grew up I started to enjoy times that were quiet as well. The few activites i liked to do and still do now is play soccer, go bowling, read, and going for bike rides.

As we exited they were yelling in a strange language and separating people from their families. looks like the crazy old man from home may have been right. Is this the horrible place he spoke of?

When I got on the CTT Bus I couldn’t wait- it would be my first time on the goliath. “Last stop everyone off” yelled the bus driver. When I got off I mentioned to my sister “This does not look like Six Flags” “I think we missed our stop and we are lost “she answered. I started to look for any thing I noticed. But all I saw was two large buildings and lots of people.…

    When I was younger I didn't have much to do. Since my school gave me a deficient amount of homework, I would be bored most of the day. Then one Christmas my mom gave me a miniature remote controlled car. The car was a crimson sports car with charcoal flames running down either side. On the rear of the car was a pitch-dark spoiler with a red line streaming down the middle. There were small rubber spikes all over the tires built for traction. However, the main thing that made me love the car was that there were small lights in the spoiler. Some odd reason those lights made me attracted to the car. Now that i'm older I think it was probably because they were shiny. Without the car I would have hated 1st grade, but it kept me entertained for…

    Like Charlie, we often feel bound by many aspects of life; this is only natural. Our problems may not be as severe as Charlie’s, but many of us often feel the stresses and pressures of everyday bearing down on us. As humans first of all, and as part of the American society second of all, we are often venturing to accomplish what is next before enjoying what we have just achieved. This is because we are in a constant rush to finish things before time finishes us. “I swear we were infinite”. Infinite. Endless. What would you do if you had the ability to feel infinite? Moreover, what would you do if time suddenly did the impossible and became infinite?…
