Personal Narrative: Killing Sir Knightly And Madame Blueberry

Improved Essays
The trip was a success! I am so immensely proud of us and so immensely tired. Here is a description of our journey in phases.

48 hours

Killing Sir Knightly and Madame Blueberry was hard but, I knew we needed to harvest their meat in order to survive. Thankfully I wasn't the one ripping into their flesh it was Hannah and Mandy. During that time Annagail was calming down the rest of the horses. It twisted my stomach to hear the blood curdling cries of pain from the horses. After I heard the first cry I ran to the crawl space under the stairs and tried to block out the noise. After the third cry the horse was dead I was a crumpled piece of paper. I don't know how Hannah and Mandy were able to do it.

Then we had to harvest the llama. I know

Nowadays it's getting harder and harder to know when it's day and when it's night. Also, all us girls are starting to feel the cold nip our cheeks. To add on to that Bing Bong, Junior, Jasmine, and N!xou (the remaining horses) are all giving us a "I-hate-you-all" attitude. I don't blame them; it's hard to subsist on a few tuffs of hay. When we got to Running Y we had to use our Stanley FatMax Xtreme 55-120 FuBar II to break into the pool area. I forgot that there was a spa there and since no one thinks of ransacking a spa we got to get 2 boxes of DYNAREX POWDER-FREE NITRILE GLOVES SMALL / 100 COUNT, 1 MIGRAINE AROMATHERAPY PACK BY MIGRAINE MIRACLE, 1 VANILLA IN JOJOBA ESSENTIAL OIL, 1 ESSENTIAL OIL BLEND - PEACEFUL SLEEP, 1 PROTECTIVE MOISTURIZER BROAD SPECTRUM SPF 30 / 8.0 FL. OZ. BY JUNE JACOBS SPA COLLECTION, and lots of other fancy shamancy thing-a-ma-bobs. Unfortunately, we couldn't shoot any deer. I think that other people must have shot them. Also, it was a no go for the chlorine we couldn't find those either. We spent the night at Running …show more content…
We chose this house because it was the only house we saw that was there! Which wasn't a surprise because Pershing County only has a population of about 6,000. It's a pretty nice house I'm not complaining. I think the past owners were hunters because I can see deer heads up on the wall. I think that if this house was on Zillow it would have this description," The Rye Patch Ranch sits on 45.23 acres w/ 25 acre feet of deeded water rights. The Ranch is a multi-zoned, income- producing property with 3 rentals and includes hook-ups for 5 RVs. The 3300sf, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath 2-story main house boasts an open floor plan with ample living space and a great room that includes a wet bar. There is a 70x30 insulated machine shop w/loft and separate storage, a 40x40 machine shop and many outbuildings. The ranch has working corrals, with a 75-head feed lot. This would be an excellent investment/working property or home for a large or extended family. The property dates back to the 1860s and the original rock house is still standing."

As I manage to lift myself up from my bed, I quickly remember that today is the day Papa leaves for his yearly hunting trip. Leaping to my feet, I dash to make sure he hasn't left yet. I slowly come to a stop when I see him fast asleep on the floor with an empty bottle of liquor placed in his hand.…

    Though I was not able to put all of my attention to school until junior year, I kicked it into high gear as soon as I could. Despite all my hard work, I was unable to find myself a place in the top 10%. This has hurt my appearance to colleges, but I hope that with these explanations of what I had to go through freshman and sophomore year, my position will be slightly more understandable. Engineering honors is the best thing for my future and everything I want to do with my life. Honors will help me grow as a student, so I can be a better employee and will help me grow as a person.…

    The night before Tinkerbelle died, when I went to feed her, I put her food in her bowl as usual; she went and looked at it, took a bite and walked away from her food. Because she was the smallest cat, Copper, Callie and Benj never let her have a lot of food, so I had to feed her alone, on top of the workbench just outside the basement door. I was inside feeding my two inside cats Fluffy and Scooter, when I saw Tink fall off the workbench. She landed on her feet, but when she landed her side hit the ground. I ran out to see if she was ok, I knelt down a few inches away from her, and she was about to climb into my lap, but I wanted to make sure she was ok…

    Last month, I had a chance to visit both Mahayana temple and St. Patrick’s Cathedral. The reason I picked Buddhist temple and Catholic cathedral is because I’m personally fascinated with some beliefs in Buddhism, and I am also interested in Catholic traditions. At first, I had thought that this trip would be boring and rough, but I have to admit that I enjoyed it a lot and I’ve got many things out of it.…
