Personal Narrative: Mrs. Stewart

Improved Essays
After the twenty-year high school reunion Doug, Sally and Clint were all sitting at the local diner visiting their old friend Bob, who worked at the diner. The four of them were reminiscing over high school experiences.
Sally was talking about her favorite teacher Mrs. Stewart. “I remember the first day of Algebra. Walking in I saw Doug in his khakis, blue button up, orange bow tie, and loafers. He looked fairly intelligent so I decided to go and sit next to him. Then Mrs. Stewart smiled telling us to group up in groups of three.”
Clint started laughing, “Yeah, that was the day I pushed my way into your group. Sally, everyone in the room could tell that you liked Doug but he had his eyes set on Mary Lou. Mary Lou was a passing thing though

    Two AWESOME workouts with Sharon Stewart today! The last ten months have truly changed my life. She has pushed me further than I ever thought possible. I've gone from thinking "too" skinny looked good, to wanting to be fit and healthy. I've gone from thinking I can get away with using light weights to hearing her "yell" at me in my mind, or not getting low enough for a squat.…

    In the discombobulation of day to day life, all types of people are going to try to knock you down. This hardship was experienced personally by Brenda Roza as she realized that “there may not be that person next to you that's going to speak up for you”. There is no reason for strangers being malicious, to try to knock other people down when they’re not even known to you. Regardless, it is imperative that you are able to defend yourself- just as Brenda Roza did. Having been told throughout her entire life that she couldn’t do certain things, Brenda thought that that being a successful person might be beyond reach to her - impossible.…

    During the eighteen years I have lived my experiences have been fairly sheltered. I have never traveled out of the country, eaten exotic foods, or gone skydiving; consequently, I haven’t met many people of special interest. Not to say the people I have met are not interesting, on the contrary, most of the people I have come to know all have their own unique stories and experiences; however, I never did meet anyone quite like Miss May. To this day I can’t pinpoint what exactly it was about her that intrigued me so much, maybe it was her rich brown hair and almond-shaped eyes, or how she pronounced candy more like “kehn-dee”, or it definitely could have been the way her eyes lit up when she smiled—still she will always remain a mystery to me.…

    The Bright light gleamed upon my shining face as the cameraman closed in the frame of me, the microphone hovering above the camera; the visual image in my mind of the magical world this movie was creating, the director hollered “Ready, Set, Action!” words that forever changed my life for the better. Shirley Jane Temple is what my mother named me when I was born on April 23, 1928 in my hometown of Santa Monica, California. From here on I grew slowly but steadily. I got my first ever movie contract from Educational Pictures when I was only three years old…

    Spending this time with the McCalls was instrumental for me as a therapist professional, working heavily with this population for a mere 8 hours in their 24 hour world. What I do know is that families with children who have disabilities have the odds stacked against them, often resulting in negative situations. Misunderstanding and conflict can certainly come about in a marriage, between a husband and wife. Siblings may often resent the immense attention given to a child with special. Grandparents may not understand modern day diagnoses, often the source of harsh criticism for parents.…
