Eureka Lake-Personal Narrative

Decent Essays
On a warm starry night, I was out at a softball game of my dad’s at the Eureka Lake. I was with friends, we were messing around. Little did we know what was going to be hit upon us. I was at my dad’s softball game and my friends were there too. Their dad was on the other team. We had blanket we were playing with and we were doing different things with it. We were trying to be a human taco, trying to find people with the blanket on our head, playing king and queen, we would stand in a line and we would wrap ourselves up and trying to be a fat person.

    Cedar Point, the Roller Coaster Capital of the world, certainly lives up to its title. Scattered throughout the park are some of the most intense roller coasters you’ll ever hear of. I was fortunate enough to have experienced the phenomenon of riding atop the Top Thrill Dragster over summer vacation, which lasted only 20 seconds of real time, but will forever be embedded within my long-lasting memory. The fiery orange sun began to submerge below the line of the horizon, far out across the calm, murky waters of Lake Erie.…

    On Thursday September 22, the entire class met at 9:30am in front of the windmill. There we were told the route through the Cedar Dell Pond we were heading in and shown naturally occurring jagged rocks from Professor Broadrose. While still standing by the windmill we were told to look over the pond area and imagine there were no trees, this would be a Tundra. This is what existed 9-11 thousand years BCE. The day was hot, at this time there were no clouds in the sky.…

    7:00 am- I open my eyes and a thin beam of early-morning light shines into by enormous bedroom. A breeze blows the drapes on my bay window revealing the sun still low in the sky, which cast feeble shadows about the room, decorated with exotic souvenirs and artifacts from my adventures all over the world. I step out the door to a deck with a huge, sparkling pool and a trail leading back towards the rocky cliff overlooking the ocean. I follow the trail out to the cliff and study the tropical, green-blue water so far below for a moment.…

    As I open the door to walk through my backyard, the cold quickly stings my face, legs, and hands, I realized that the walk I was about to begin would be a long and terribly bitter time. So I shut the door behind myself and started out on my adventure, walking slowly, to take in as much as I could. I noticed that overnight the ground was covered in beautiful shimmering white snow, so perfect and immaculate, it almost seemed like a waste to tread over and ruin the lovely display over my property. While I continued further into the cold I looked out at my pond and saw that it has iced over completely and fully frozen, frozen enough to walk on. So I put one step on the pond still a little unsure and not wanting to get wet and frozen!…
