Personal Narrative: The Mizuno Wave Inspire

Great Essays
Narration Summer is when people have fun with friends, enjoy the hot, dry air, go swimming, and live it up. It is when they are finally out of school and feel free again because they have nothing to worry about for the next three months. However, if someone wants shoes as nice as the Mizuno Wave Inspire 12’s like I did, one has to do a little work. The shoes looked so light that when wearing them, it would feel like walking on clouds, and the color was a gorgeous Key West green.
My uncle is the manager of the Bazine, Kansas Co-op and usually needs summer help during the busiest time of the year, harvest.

For the remainder of the day only five more trucks come. Today will be harder I tell myself and maybe longer, but after two weeks it will be worth it. I arrive and can already hear the loud truck engines as one is leaving the scales. Once I clock in, I go to the office where the dust is so thick I can feel it crawling up my nose causing me to sneeze.

Bryan grabs the walkie talkie and says “Everyone get prepared, we got 6 trucks to the North and 4 to the South”.
Bryan goes out to help direct traffic and I start doing my job by weighing the truck, taking a sample of wheat, testing the wheat and repeating the process. I get a little overwhelmed and do not realize that one of the trucks already tested and sent on its way was not weighed when it was full. I start to panic and immediately find Bryan “I am sorry I thought I weighed this truck, but I did not and now he is back on empty and it is too late,” I say, barely getting the words out.
“Oh no! I better call the guy he is driving for and see what he wants to do about this,” said

    Inside America's Most Dangerous Year Round Job It was just before 9:00 on a rainy Autumn morning as I drove up the muddy gravel drive of Baker Logging on the outskirts of Manchester, Tennessee. The outside of the green metal building appeared fairly new, as I walked in, I noticed the smell of lumber faded to a mixture of grease and pumpkin spice candles. It was almost as chilly inside as it was outside, only dry. The desk was full of paperwork and behind it sat Mr.Baker. He appeared almost as I had pictured him, only cleaner.…

    After watching some gameplay videos for the new ps4 game Until Dawn, I was reminded of a strange term I had once heard, the butterfly effect. Upon seeing this, I decided to do some research to find out more about it. The Chaos theory more commonly called the butterfly effect summarized by Edward Lorenz is a branch of mathematics that deals with complex systems whose behaviour is highly sensitive to slight changes in conditions, so that small alterations can give rise to strikingly great consequences. With this, I thought a many life decisions that I had made, both large and small and thought of how they affected my life and how different my life would be if I had chosen to take another path. I am a Christian and with further thought, came to…
