Personal Narrative: How I Quit My Work In School

Decent Essays
Since I was a kid I was always shy and never liked to talk to anyone I didn’t know. I would also never raise my hand in class to ask a question or to answer a problem. I did have friends but I usually didn’t talk to anyone else besides them. I always did my work and I was the quit one which is how most of my teacher remember me. I believe that teachers will remember me as a quit and no talkative student cause I really didn’t talk much unless I sat by a friend.

Even though I dint talk much I think teachers will also remember me as a hard worker, because I always get good grades and I like to maintain them. I always do my work in quit and I don’t really talk to other people when I’m assigned a partner I don’t know. I would also like to be

    Hardworking, trustworthy, selfless, determined, and helpful… I believe that I have demonstrated these qualities exceptionally throughout my high school career. A glimpse at my exquisite grades that I have kept in four years of challenging classes reveals not only my effort, but my endless determination as well. Despite all of the energy that I directed towards my own success at school, I was always willing to help others who struggled in their classes, especially in math and science. Also, I put time and effort into my extracurricular activities in order to benefit my school’s community. I painted a mural of the Mt. Hope Bridge to beautify a conference room, helped plan countless events for the entire student body, from spirit weeks to…

    Though I am not even half way through my high school career, I feel as if I can still be a help to those who are just beginning.

There are a few concepts that I have figured out by myself that I wished someone would have told me. Those of which include never procrastinate, think about your future, learn how to manage your time, and do not settle for less than your best. My first recommendation is that you don’t procrastinate.…

    One of my first swim coaches once told me " you can only control what goes on in your own lane. " That's true, but sometimes my goggles break after I dive in. Even though I don't have control over that, I do have the choice to continue my race or quit. If I quit, it's over. If I keep going there is a delay, but I eventually finish.

For someone who is somewhat of a perfectionist and has never received a D in their life this came as a shock. Subsequent to receiving this a slight meltdown and phone call to my mother ensued.

    To be honest, I hate school with a passion, yet I love learning as much as living. As a child, schooling created a feeling of loneliness and sadness that echoed throughout my life, even now. I didn’t meet the standard levels for literacy and was separated from my classmates in elementary school for special reading and writing classes. Also the lack of freedom to say and move the way I wished to, and the rebellion that stemmed out of me in middle school due to these limitations. Finally, the conforming in high school to appease my mother, friends that drove me over the edge, yet even now I feel the same bull-crap in college.…

    When people ask me to describe myself, I always draw a blank, I never know what to say, I’m caught off guard because I don’t really love talking about myself too often because I am someone who likes to listen rather than to talk. I always have to think about what I should say to make a good impression on whomever is asking me the question. There is a lot about me that you can see by just looking at me; I have short brunette hair, I’m short, hazel eyes, I’m quiet, and more. However, there are certain personality traits about me that every single person I know on a personal basis can tell you; I am candid, I am shy, and I am very loving. I am candid and by candid, I mean I am always very truthful and frank.…
