Personal Narrative Essay: The Party Girl In College

Superior Essays
I woke up this morning feeling great. The sun was shining, my dorm was clean,my skin was clear… for once. I could tell today would be great. Being a freshman in college would seem like it would be the most stressful thing in the world, it is, but a positive butterfly like me, I try my best not to stress. Besides the psycho amount of work I have to do, being two states away from your parents is absolutely amazing. You’re looking at an independent mature Zoey now. Now I know what you’re thinking, “what are you in college for??’ obviously for business! What else do people do in college? Besides cry on the sidewalk but that’s a whole other story. Now that you’ve gotten to know me, let me tell you how it all started. Around this campus I’m known as “ the party girl”, party on friday? I’m there. Party on saturday? I'm there. Party on a monday?? Honey i'm already there!

Apart from that catastrophe, my makeup is done! I decided to get ready early just so I could rehearse how I would act at the party. I see Matthew all the the time on campus but we only give each other that “ I don’t feel like saying hi to you but I want you to know I that dont hate you” smirk. Why am I so off topic?? How did i make it to college?? “Buzz”,my phone went, it’s Matthew! “Hey Zoey really excited to hang out today”, the text said. He did not just-... OH MY GOD!!!
( 6:00 pm) Okay world, only one hour until the party. I’m eating an orange on my bathroom counter. My best friend Lexi is supposed to be here around 6:30. She was visiting her parents on Friday so I pretty much had the dorm all to myself. I decided to straighten my hair just to make sure I looked perfect. “Zoey!, It’s Lexi!!”, Lexis shouted. I did my housewife walk to the door. “Wow, you look like disney on ice Zoe.” Lexi said. We both laughed like insane people at that. I walked out and gave myself one last look into the mirror, I got

    A recap on my life: Spring Semester has been very busy, but it has been such a great Wolf ride-this week in particular. So many things have happened recently in my life that I just want to thank everyone who has taken the journey with me!

    Being the first in the family to take interest in college is already enough for everyone to push me in the direction to achieving it. I do not want to disappoint them or myself, I want to be on the graduation stage with my hand grasping that master degree. About me, others describe me as opinioned, stubborn and independent. Although I do not want to admit it, these traits all apply to me. Opinioned doesn’t sound as an appealing word to me I should say I like for people to understand my views completely also I don’t mind if someone does not agree with me, it just adds more depth to the discussion.…

    Alternative: No one talk about what happened at the party. Stakeholder: Ourselves. If we go forward with no one saying anything about what happened at the party, the only values and principles we would be upholding is our loyalty to Simon. I would keep his loyalty by not breaking his trust in myself, even if I can never trust him again.…

    The day of August 27, 2012 I was officially titled a freshman. One look down those unknown red and blue walls, will forever change my perspective of high school. There was an instant moment of disbelief in my freshman, I was terrified, and no thought came to mind as to how I was going to survive high school for the next four years. Of course I knew it'll be different from my tiny middle school, but will it be like the cliché movies about the upcoming of age, or resemble the happiest times of life. From that first day, I knew I wasn’t like everyone else.…

    As a college student, I have will experience many new experiences that I have never encountered before in my life. From the day we first set foot into college, we being our transition from adolescence to adults. College requires students to become more independent and responsible in our decisions and actions. Each student is responsible for their own education and no longer have their parents to rely on and hold their hand. This type of freedom could be seen as a good or bad thing depending on the choices a person makes.…

    I am a first-generation college student, before I enrolled at NAU no one in my family had ever gone to a university. That fall, when I decided to go through Formal Recruitment and join a sorority my family thought it would be a mistake and did not approve.

    My Junior year of high school was my challenging year, the reason to that is because we had to study for our Act also we had our grad MCAs to take. I must say it was really difficult knowing that we had those two big major tests in the same week. The amount of studying was ridiculous but in my head for a whole two months I was reminding myself that it will benefit me in the future that I need this to graduate. One part I didn 't have to worry was a portion of the MCA like the Algebra part. But the part that was extremely hard for me was geometry.…
