Personal Narrative: Major Downgrades

Decent Essays
I went through a very dark time when I was 15. When my boyfriend broke up with me I couldn’t go shopping anymore because I didn’t have to worry about my financial need when I was with him. He would always buy me Michael Kors bags, Prada bags, whatever designer item I wanted he would buy it for me. But then during that period he cheated on me with some ugly hoe like seriously who does that, His outfit wasn’t even on point too and his eyebrows looked like it’s been through Hurricane Katrina. It’s like you having a Ferrari and trading it in for a Honda Civic. So it was a major downgrade. After I found out I did what I did. I told him to ‘’pick me up to go shopping’’ but really I just wanted to dumped my starbucks in his ugly ghetto black Mercedes

    7.09 am, I was awake. Greeted by the blinding light of the morning sun shining through my bedroom window and welcomed into the chaos by the erratic beating of my own. It had taken exactly 10 hours for Sudbury to die away. I sat there thinking, something I often do. I had large gaps of memory.…

    “Throwing Down The Gauntlet On My Life” I’m a junior at Presbyterian Pan American School. I was born in Brownsville, Texas, but since my parents are Mexican nationals, I grew up in San Fernando, Tamaulipas, Mexico. In 2013, my parents told me to “pack your bags” you are going to Kingsville, Texas. I came to Texas three years ago to attend Presbyterian Pan American School (PPAS), a senior private boarding school in Kingsville, Texas, on an academic scholarship. Talking about different aspects of my life is daunting, but it also allows me to come to terms with my growth as an individual by learning from my failures, confronting obstacles such as adapting to new surroundings, and a different educational system, speaking English properly, and adjusting to a real world working environment.…

    It’s very strange how one experience or choice you make in your life can change the rest of your life that follows that event, would you then in turn change these decisions you made. Such as your what if your mom conceived you not on the knowing basis. What if everyone was telling her not to because she was to be a single mom and that’s not a world a child should be born into, but then what if she challenged this belief that she grew up with. This then in turn affected all her choices later in life, but then vice versa what if she didn't challenge this belief and stuck with what she knew. This may be of the more extreme choices in life that some people must make but we all have that certain time in our life that comes where we must break away and make…

    At the beginning of the quarter I didn’t know nearly half of what I know now, I thought literacy was the ability to read, write, and have knowledge of writing.

    Losing someone you watched suffer in their last days on earth doesn’t feel anything like losing a friend that was your age who had their whole life ahead of them, and losing both in less than a 2 month span doesn’t help either.

For me it actually started when I was in the seventh grade, my mom received the rights to take care of my ill grandfather (her father). Turns out he was suffering from early age dementia; caused from drinking at an early age which happened to be 12.…

    Every week, time after time, month after month, alone in silence with nothing but the view and envy that I had felt for that one hour, which time and presence wouldn't allow to go away. That freedom was what I wanted -being an outcast- not being forced into fake friendships because I had been conditioned from an early age by my peers to learn there is no such thing as a real friend. Mocking always filled my ears whenever I'd sit there during a Den Meeting; it was me, once again, subjecting myself to internal torment, bringing myself down. Occasionally, I'd be asked to get into a car, with them saying we were going somewhere “fun”. It never was.…
