My Personal Hero Over the summer‚ I moved into a new house with my mom and brother. This will be approximately the twelfth time I have moved houses in my lifetime. The twelfth time I have packed up my life and relocated. The twelfth time I have seen my mother prevail through trying times. My parents divorced when I was four. I can recall the separation well. My mom had to start over with my younger brother and me at her side‚ a single mother with two very young children. She has always strived to

I remember being a very sassy‚ rebellious‚ careless‚ and pot-headed fifteen year old girl‚ who had the external facade that “I do not care about other people’s opinions of me‚ if they don’t like me they can go fuck themselves.” However‚ internally I wanted to cry when people did not like me and ask why are people so judgmental? As if I would get the answer to this question‚ but at that time‚ I had given up on living up to people’s expectations such as my parents‚ teachers‚ and friends because people

Birds tweeted‚ waves crashed and the familiar salty smell filled the air around us. As we got closer to the house‚ you could smell the salty water and hear people yelling on the beach. The drive always seemed to take forever but it was all worth it once we pulled in to the long driveway of the house. We stayed in the same house almost every time we went. The beach was in walking distance from the house and there was a small shower outside to wash off any sand you have left on you. There was

Karley Pohlmann Personal Narrative Composition‚ 8am Red‚ that is what comes to my mind when I remember May 3rd of my freshman year in high school. Red was my totaled out car‚ red was the stained seat fabric from my brother’s blood‚ red was the flashing lights and sirens‚ and red was my eyes from the tears I cried. I could not change that day‚ I could not turn back time and so my heart bled out red. As I was a freshman getting ready to get my license within the next year‚ my step dad bought

I grew up in a household consumed by sports. At a young age my father drilled things like ESPN‚ football‚ and elbow pads into me and my brother’s heads. Both of my brothers were naturally gifted in athletics. I on the other hand‚ was not. I couldn’t catch a football‚ run a lap‚ or shoot a basket to save my life. When seventh grade rolled around I made a deal with my dad that if I got a part in the spring production I could quit sports altogether. That year the play was “Cinderella” and I was nervous

I just sat there for 15 minutes spacing out until she slapped me in the face and walked away‚ at that moment I knew she liked me. The next day I told all my friends‚ they all said the same thing “It was just a coincidence”‚ I thought otherwise. The next morning I walked up to her and asked her how her day was. She responded with “Good” while

I always reference a quote from the children’s book Wonder. Olivia‚ Auggie’s sister‚ used the analogy‚ “Auggie is the sun and everyone else are the planets orbiting the sun.” I am the Olivia of my life. No matter how successful I am‚ someone else will always be more important. I will never be Auggie. Or when I watch my favorite show‚ “Bollywood Housewives‚” I feel a connection with the lead‚ Maheep Kapoor‚ because she is always judged or mistaken. I tend to feel judged‚ undervalued‚ or ashamed.

expected what was about come next either‚ my first encounter with a wizard that is. I was 10 when I was first introduced to John‚ my master‚ and it was him who taught me‚ a mere Normal‚ to use magic. Of course I was skeptical at first but it was all swept away by the amazement only the mind of a 10 year old could feel. In 6 years time he taught as much as he was able to without causing harm to my psyche. Gaining actual experience in Thaumaturgy was a not easy as such magics can become harmful to those who
