Personal Narrative: Let Themselves

Improved Essays
Maybe it was the box in front of the house with large red, runny, letters proclaiming me to enter. Or maybe it was the blue door, that looked far too new to be attached to this house. It could have been the crumbling brick that made up the entirety of the house, or the crumbling bricks that sat outside the small building. It called to me, pushed me to it’s bidding, begging me to enter. It probably hadn’t been the best idea to enter, in hindsight, I could have made a much better decision. This wasn’t some knock off horror movie and I wasn’t some cliche chick who made the wrong choices and got myself killed. The moment my hand touched the cold and black knob I knew I had royally screwed myself over. Mistakes had been made and this just happened

    As I slowly walked toward the door, the floors creaked in terror, the only thing that was on my mind was if the door was locked. I put my hand on the round, freezing cold, door knob and turned it to the right hoping to God that it doesn't end up being locked. I pulled the door with confidence that only lasted for a good 2 seconds after I realized the door wouldn't open. All my emotions were tied together as a flood of negativity overtook my mind. I tried again and once again I failed, with anger I hit the door while still holding the knob to the right and the door open.…

    Since, I can remember I have always been the shy, quiet type. I did not speak, unless spoken to, made friends, but never put effort in keeping them, because there was no point in keeping friends when I knew I would have to move the next school year or half way through the year; however, that all changed in the middle of my third grade year. IT happened. The BIG move. Well, not really.…

    Faith is the belief in something greater than us one can put full trust, confidence, and reliance on when difficult times arise. I was raised to be involved with church activities to maintain my spiritual life; additionally my faith grew dramatically when my cousin deceased and gave me an overview of what I wanted to pursue my career as. When I was a child, my parents encouraged me to always be as loving and caring as I could be, not for personal gain, but to be benevolent to the people around me. I was raised with two loving parents, Mario and Rebeca, along with a younger brother, Mario and older sister, Ana.…
