High School-Personal Narrative

Improved Essays
High school. The time when your life really starts. The clatter of the doors and laughter announce the arrival of three boys.
“Man, you’re so lucky. You’re so popular that any girl would love to get with you. But I feel sorry for that girl. Why did you reject her? She wasn’t that bad.” The boy turns a chair around, sits down, and leans back, lets his red hair touch the desk behind him.
“Yeah, he’s right. You don’t even seem to like any of them or have a girlfriend. Why?” The brown haired boy places his backpack on his desk as he sits down.
“Meh. I just really don’t have any feelings for them. I mean, they don’t know anything about me yet they say they love me. I feel like they just like my face.” The blond haired boy sits in the last seat

    "Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence" I have had many ups and downs over the course of my life thus far. One specific example of this took place during my freshman year of high school.

This by far is one of my biggest regrets to this day. Who would ever think that not trying during my freshman year would continue to follow me throughout the course of my academic career.…

    If I had said this to my boss either one of these statements they may not fire me right away but they might keep a mental note of my actions use it against me at another time.

    Growing up I was always the tallest kid in the class. Whenever class picture day rolled around, I knew that I was in the front of the line because of my height. It was somewhat embarrassing when all the boys were shorter than I, and the girls made me feel bad for how out of place I was. Not only did my height provide social awkwardness, it also administered the constant, never ending struggle of finding garments long enough. Whenever my mom or grandmothers wanted to take me back to school shopping, I made excuses of “I don’t need any more habiliments” or “I do not feel good, all of the sudden…”…
