My uncle has a big impact in my life. He has done a lot for me this past couple of year. First he has been to all of my football games. Second he pays for some of the food for the afterglow. Lastly he goes to all of the quarterback meeting for me. I was at the Douglas football game and it was a hard game‚ but I can always hear my uncle yelling and supporting me. He is almost always the loudest person on the sideline and that really motivates me to play harder and it makes football a lot more

In my personal experience‚ the informal economy has aided me and my parents by allowing us to earn extra income to pay bills and college fees. When I was 14 years old‚ my parents were both hospitalized‚ my mom due to a severe case of pneumonia and my father due to having an accident at his job which placed him out of work for 3 months. Through these tragic events‚ I was forced to find any way possible to bring income to my household which at that moment consisted of me‚ my two sisters and smaller

Cross country practice started a week before school started for most people; for me and many others‚ it started a couple weeks into summer. Eventually‚ when the season actually started we all started running together more and do harder workouts. Then in a couple more weeks we started having a couple meets‚ sometimes two a week. Then at the end of the season‚ we had our conference meet and for most people that was their last meet of the year. I was top four on JV though‚ so that meant I had a

Writing a Personal Narrative Purpose and Audience Personal narratives allow you to share your life with others and vicariously experience the things that happen around you. Your job as a writer is to put the reader in the midst of the action letting him or her live through an experience. Although a great deal of writing has a thesis‚ stories are different.

My teachers would call me cute‚ my aunts would pinch my cheeks‚ and my older sister used my shoulders as an arm rest. Everyone saw me as a height instead of a person

“Never put your key to happiness in someone else’s pocket.”~Anonymous. It was the Fourth of July‚ and my parents were planning a small party with our next-door neighbors. By this time I was in third grade and very close to a friend my age that lived next door. He had a little brother‚ who I thought was pretty intimidating for his age‚ considering he never obeyed or listened to anyone‚ and made up his own rules‚ like a visualante. On the other hand I had two sisters. The older one‚ Ronnie‚ I thought

As far as I can remember‚ I first visited Da Nang city - one of the most beautiful and dynamic cities in the central of Viet Nam - in Autumn‚ 2008 after passing the Entrance Examination to University.
