Personal Narrative-Who's To Blame?
I woke with the seal of my capsule opening and the temperature inside increasing The ice around me melting. It has been 50 years since China nuked us across the map. The year was 2025 U.S and China had been locked in war 7 years before they bombed us. I try not to think that it’s my fault as I’m the one who had killed the top power of China who had already been on the brink of nuking us already, it’s hard to think that it’s not my fault I tell myself I’m the one who pushed it over the edge. Now whats up above is a mystery to me, I’ve been 200 feet underground for the last 50 years. As I got out I felt my body wake my muscles up. I found it difficult to move and difficult to stand on the ground, as I haven’t done it for a while. I saw a monitor …show more content…
I had them I heard a click the safety came off one of their guns after that three gunshots all mine, I had hit all three targets all had got fatal shots all dead in an instant. I looked at the dog it looked like he wanted to attack before I shot the three. I petted it went back to its calm state and went to search the bodies. I found 4 bottles of water with marker labeling purified on it, more pain pills, a holster for my pistol and got a rifle with a holster (30 rounds). Not even a day in and I already hate the new world I’m faced. People eating dogs making them suffer and people looking like they own go-karts decorated with skulls. I looked back the dog and started talking to it “Well boy I guess you safe now,” it poked its head up looked at me and turned it’s head in confusion, I thought about it and decided to call the dog bullseye. “How about I call you Bullseye...do you like that name boy?” Bullseye barked at me in return “I’ll take that as a yes,” I gave him a bottled water and drank one. I rested in the shade for a while. I got up and whistled for my new dog and started walking trying to create a plan, I almost done with my plan when I heard shots, yelling, and Bullseye took off towards the

    We are all humans; therefore, we all make mistakes, but one thing that comes out of our mistakes is a lesson well learned. As I look back to all the things I've done, I regret the time I felt ashamed of myself. Easter of 2004 my godmother decided to invite us to her house for an egg hunt. I was told by my mom that the eggs had candy and nothing else. As we were heading out, I decided to bring my little purse, and we got inside the car full of joy. We were on our way to my Godmother's house for the egg hunt.…

    Just sit there for a second, close your eyes, and visualize this; a puppy no older than 5 months in the pouring rain, freezing, shivering, on your door step. You want to help but you don’t know exactly how to, you just watch almost in tears as this puppy stays there very gloom and soaking wet. You finally decide to take a leap of chance and help the puppy, you go outside and the puppy gently lifts his head toward you and you notice it’s a pit bull. He is so skinny, starved, and parched, with the only thing to drink being muddy rain water. You slowly move closer and pet him, he lays his head on your leg, so you pick him up gently in your arms and you take him inside. When you set him down you notice your arms are covered in blood, when you look down at him you see he has cuts on his legs, neck, and stomach. You start cleaning him up and cleaning his wounds there not deadly but they are heart breaking. He has no collar or tags, but you decide to keep him. You call him Bentley, and Bentley becomes your world, and if it wasn’t for you he would have never been saved. And if it wasn't for him, you wouldn't have the heart to believe that not all pit bulls are aggressive.…

    What do you see when you look in the mirror? Are you pleased, or do you immediately come up with an endless list of insecurities? As a child one of my favorite memories was laying around the house with my older sister on rainy days. We would leave the windows open so we could hear the rain coming down on the tin roof over our patio, while watching reruns of our favorite tv show “America's Next Top Model”. I always thought that these women were gorgeous and I would catch myself constantly comparing their looks to my own. I wanted to be just like them until I realized the unrealistic expectations that they had to live up to. A sizeable butt and breasts, but not too large; they have got to be proportional. A skinny waist, impeccable hair, blemish free face although even with clear skin you are expected to cake on makeup because no one is actually pretty without mile long eyelashes, the perfect smoky eye, and exemplary contouring. Society has idolized these things as “beautiful” and shamed the girls that do not meet these standards; however, society should be making everyone feel confident in their bodies. Girls need to know that it is okay not to have an “hourglass figure” so they don’t…

    I looked around and saw a small dirt road that lead away from the beach inland. I decided to take the road, not realizing what was in store for us. As I am cruising down the dirt path with the Mexican music blaring loudly, drowning out the buzz of the motor. All of a sudden the ATV died. As we sit there with the music still playing, looking around at each other with huge eyes, we were able to get it restarted. At this point that should have been our que to turn around and head back, but we continued on. This happened a couple more times but at this point we were miles from the beach. We weren’t too worried yet as we could see our hotel in the far distance. It was now my friends turn to drive and we at this point realized that we could not let up on the gas pedal as it would die again. We turned down another dirt road, this time being a little larger than the last dirt path. We soon found ourselves driving past a property that looked like a compound. There was a tall fence wrapped in flesh tearing barbed wire. There were about 3 or 4 out building and as we got closer there were a group of men standing in the yard waving at us. When out of nowhere two very large, aggressive pit bulls appear. They were running at us with great speed, saliva dripping from their mouths as they were quickly catching us. They were so close that I could have reached out and touched one or they could have easily ripped my arm off. Luckily the ATV did not die on us at this point. With the gas pedal mash we slowly gained distance between these grossly angry…
