Narrative Essay On A Plane Crash

Improved Essays
I wake to the sound of waves. I open my eyes to have the sunlight blinding me.
It took about two seconds for me to realize I was in my seat my airplane seat. The seat looked like it kept me from face-planting into the sand. Looking around, I see the sea and a forest. My head felt like it had its own heartbeat. I thought about exactly what had happened, I had been on a flight home after visiting a foreign country when we had hit some strange turbulence causing us to crash right into the ocean. At least I thought we crashed into the ocean. I unbuckled his seat felt causing him to fall into the sand. I kept a mental note that his reaction time was way off and it seems my body reacted slower. Walking along the shore I knew for one this would

looking around I saw nobody but my leg was bandaged well and a water bottle had been left for me. I drank the water like I had not drank anything in years and stood up my leg did not hurt at all. I wandered outside. Whoever had helped me had gotten quite a bit of the plane crash. They had at least found five suitcases and had found a bunch of the onboard soda. He saw the pointed shrapnel that he had used on the board it looked like a tip of the spear. He picked it up and saw an opportunity a part of the plane made of reinforced black carbon steel looked like a perfect spear handle. He began using the fire to smelt some of the metal onto each other. It somehow worked perfectly and swinging the spear around it felt flawless. He began to sharpen the top and revine the edges. There standing before him all of the sudden was another kid from the crash. He had the boar that had a familiar slash mark in his hand. I spoke first “Are you from the same crash as me?.” The other guy had short black hair and he was built more than I was and looked intelligent. “Well you were about dead when I found you.” “It looks like you took this boar out before it could get away.” Sitting up I examine the boar. That night they ate and talked about the crash. I learned the other guy 's name is Jeff he had a lot of survival experience due to the fact he trained for the military. He had been on the plane home from overseas training to see his family. Taking a …show more content…

The dog seemed to have disappeared during the walk back we had a feeling it would be back tomorrow. After we had both laid down to rest I awoke to the sound of one of our suitcases being torn open.

    The raindrops trickle down from the peak of my forehead, dance across my eyebrows, and finally take the leap down the 400 foot drop. Adrenaline surges through my veins. Soaked jungle trees completely surround me and pouring rain beats away at every inch of my body, like I am enclosed in the belly of a tsunami. The light Honduran air entraps me while the wind whispers and sings to me in a cold whistled tone. The zip line stretches across the gaping 400 foot drop and I cannot seem to locate the end of the line.…

    “You’re not going to feel anything,” the nurse with the fake lips exclaimed. “Yeah, right,” I murmured under my breath as I thought about how many people she had said that to today. Since when do nurses wear more makeup than clowns? Her lips were as thick as my broken, swollen thumb; her eyebrows looked like squirrels above her eyes; she looked worse than a clown. I couldn’t understand how frustrating it might be to mess up and have to start her makeup routine all over; it probably takes her at least two hours.…

Almost like someone was screaming,or maybe something. In the background of that horrible noise it almost sounded as if someone was in the shower, I sleepily began to step down from my bed and saw that my sister was lying in her bed asleep. Slurring my words I yelled and asked "Savannah! Do you hear that?"…

    “The more often we see things around us- even the beautiful things and wonderful things- the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world; the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds- even those we love. because we see things so often, we see them less and less.” -Joseph B. Wirthlin. Plane wrecks, car crashes, disease, terrorism and natural disasters are a few of the countless tragedies that happen today.…

    Narrative Essay On Grief

    Grief has been both my downfall and my saving grace. No one knows how to grieve properly or correctly, but the one thing I learned from grieving at a very young age, is that grief is love; specifically, unconditional love. This unconditional love towards someone (or in my case, many people) pours out as a sign of loneliness and yearning just to hold them and hug them one final time. I understand that losing people is a part of life and can’t be avoided, but growing up, I thought my world had turned upside down when I lost the two most important people to me. Three weeks prior to my tenth birthday, my Nana passed away from Alzheimer’s Disease.…

    Could you ever imagine waking up one day and everything was different? Not being able to be sprawled out in your perfectly good bed each morning, but waking up in various locations for protection. Having to carry some sort of weapon every time you go outside just in case you run into a pack of zombies looking for fresh flesh. This all seemed too much and it was only my first year at Missouri State. A zombie apocalypse was not something I expected from college, especially to be one of the few survivors’ left on campus.…
