Personal Narrative: My Identity Of A Girl

Improved Essays
Within an instant, I had become just as vulnerable as I had been in all the other games I had played... where my identity of being a girl had been revealed. In shock I threw down the mirror and watched as it broke into a thousand polygons before I hunched over and buried my head in my hands, trying to hold back tears while the man responsible for my pain continued with his deathly monologue. I remained with my eyes covered for some time, but I became aware of when Kayaba had finished speaking. I was able to lift my head slightly and I saw him as he faded away into nothingness, leaving all of us to our own devices in a world that he had designed to kill us all.

Without any sign of stopping I left the plaza and continued to run through the busy streets, a simple layout that had become a labyrinth in my confusion and fear. Still moving as fast as I could I darted through streets and alleyways, across bridges and under archways at a speed that was quickly depleting my stamina bar, but I still ran with all of my might without looking back, desperately crying out those four words that have stuck to me since that

    When I think about the boy who I was growing up, the young adult I am today, and the man I plan to be in the forthcoming years, one aspect of my life stands out to me far more radiantly than anything else: my culture, my skin, my identity as a Bangladeshi-American.
