Date: A Narrative Fiction

Improved Essays
Have you ever been on a date and it seems to be going well, but then suddenly it takes a turn for the worse? Well I have and let me tell you, it’s not fun. A couple of years ago during senior year in high school there was this girl name Kylie Willis. Kyle was our class president and I was lucky enough to go on a date with her. Unfortunately I was unaware of the fact that she was really lunatic. As we take our seats and look at the menus, things seem to be going good. Then after we take our order, things are starting to go downhill. I receive a text from my mother asking me about my homework.

All of a sudden Kylie asks me, “Who is that texting you?” I tell her it’s just my mom. Usually at that point most people will just say ok and go ahead with the evening but nope that Kylie. She starts to cause a big scene and starts to get loud saying “Is that really your mom or do you have a girlfriend?” I was just flabbergasted, it didn’t even seem real. Everybody stopped what they were doing and started to stare at us. As the passive person I am, I do not attend to get involved in conflict. So I tell her “No it is really my mom”.

    In the essay ‘Take Me out of Their Ball Game’ by Maria Guhde Keri, the author illustrates a prevalent situation in any child's life, “Did you ever walk into a room where kids are playing, say, a board game? They're animated, excited, totally focused on what they're doing. When you appear, they stiffen, grow quiet, and appear confused. An adult is watching, and suddenly the game and rules are changed-maybe even ruined.” In this scenario the presence of an authority figure sours the mood.…

    My older sister, Jen, has always had a mild personality. Her shyness is not what makes her a sheep, though, as it is rather her perception of the world and everybody in that makes her fit into the sheep category. There are three types of people according to Dave Grossman’s On Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs, and while I do not agree with Grossman that the world can be divided into three separate groups, the general basis of his idea is just. According to Grossman, you are a wolf that preys on the weak, a sheep that is weak, or a sheepdog that protects the sheep from the wolves. It is not to say that 100% of the time Jen is a sheep and doesn’t have the ability to be anything other than that, but for the most part, Jen is defined most accurately…

    We are still talking about interpersonal communication and how this is a tree that branches out too many direction, one of those being perception in a relationship. Perception is abnormal and one sided, it is truly biased and egoistic. It is a singularity, a point of view that is gathered from a distinct perspective in time.

This definition is clear when stating that it is a one dimensional comprehension of an occurrence that the mind preserved and grasped in a certain manner.…

    I have always been taught to judge people based on their actions rather than their appearance, and this was a lesson that was completely reinforced by the house I lived in, in which I grew up. As kids, if any of us even remotely suggested that we were focused on someone 's looks, we were immediately punished and reminded that there is no way to know a person based on what he or she looked like, but rather it is important to know the heart inside the body. Making snap judgments based on appearance was definitely not acceptable in our household. This was difficult for kids, since young people often judge people based on first impressions, which generally involve their physical appearance. Nevertheless, as an adult, it became as clear as day to…
