Narrative Essay On Joining Primo

Improved Essays
Have you ever done something that you thought you would never be able to do? I joined the Grand Cities Children’s Choir or G.C.C.C. group, Primo,which was something I thought I couldn’t do but I did. I had been thinking all summer that I wouldn’t be able to join Primo. That I didn’t have a marvelous voice for it. Or that I wasn’t good enough. For I was only in sixth grade at the time. I was required to wait until seventh grade to join, but I was compelled to audition in sixth grade. Only seventh, eighth, and ninth graders could be in this Primo group. Today was the day. The day I would finally audition to be in Primo. I had been thinking of this day all summer and now I was scared.

However, I had …show more content…
I had been doubting myself and I was wrong. After I we left the auditions we were going to go home. “Lexy do you want to go celebrate?” She asked me. “Sure.” That was fine by me. So we went out and went to a restaurant. When the day was over I was sad. This was one of the best days of my life and I didn’t want it to end. I remember thinking, I am so lucky and i will remember this for my whole life.
This day impacted me greatly because it changed my life. I didn’t have doubt myself or my voice anymore. I could carry myself confidently and not bend down from the judgement of others. I could be myself and sing like no one was listening. I didn’t have to let my sister talk bad about my voice I could prove myself to her as I sing out. I could finally be me.
What I learned that day was to not be afraid to try something new. To not give up hope and to always believe in yourself. No matter what happens you need to always believe no matter what your doing, big or small. I was proud of myself, for I had done the impossible. I look back now and think. Why did I ever

    I don’t fail often. I tend to be good at the things I attempt, usually with little or no effort on my part. I don’t say this to brag about how lucky I am, but to give context. Since I don’t fail often and am generally used to success, the times I have failed make a prodigious impression on me. I am a choir kid.…

    Scraping your knee on the sidewalk, getting hit hard with the basketball, falling off the monkey bars, these are just a few examples of ways you can get hurt at school. The worst case scenario is you would end up going to the school nurse as a result of an accident. Before first grade, suffering an injury was way out of the norm for me. The only time I got hurt in first grade, I bypassed the school nurse and went straight to the hospital. It was a scalding August afternoon, and I just finished another tiring day of first grade.…

    From the moment we are born we begin to learn important lessons teach us. These lessons are essential in helping to shape our character, and ultimately lead to who we become. Everybody has had that moment when someone, or even possible something, has taught you a valuable lesson that you will never forget. I know that I’ve had a multitude of them, but most of them I can’t remember the specific situation that transpired to teach me the lesson.

All of a sudden, the ball hits the ground and whistle blows; we just lost the national championship by one point.…

    After arriving to Wood Middle School as I would on any other day, I walked into the bustling commons area and noticed a herd of students scattered into their separate cliques. However, what immediately caught my eye was the number of teachers and administrators who clearly looked flustered and distressed. I soon left the commons area and headed towards the library to figure what exactly was going on. Sure enough, there was a cluster of teachers gazing at the library’s television in utter disbelief over what would soon become known as “The Stock Market Crash of 2008”. Even though I was only in the 6th grade, I still had enough competence to realize that this was not an ordinary day in the stock market.…

    My senior year of high school was relaxing at first as I didn’t have any real plans for my future. I was completely clueless about what I wanted to do, academically and professionally, post high school graduation. When I looked at my past for help I saw a pre-teen adolescent, a girl with eyes too big for her face, belting vocals into the bathroom mirror for she thought she could perform in a band someday. As I looked further back, I saw a six-year-old child who dreamed of becoming a dancer— who twirled for her mother every chance she had. Yet, it was during my senior year in high school when certain, unfortunate, circumstances created a pathway to a future that I would have never otherwise pursued.…
