Personal Narrative: My Experience At Trinity

Decent Essays
My experience at Trinity High School has been extraordinary so far. Although I am just a freshman, I think that Trinity has been a great environment to help me build up my confidence both inside and outside the classroom. I believe that my confidence is an important aspect of demonstrating my “girl power” at Trinity. Before this year, I was always the shy girl who did not like presentations or talking in class. However, after meeting new friends and learning to accept myself, I have grown out of my comfort zone. As example, I have been appointed one of the leaders in my Italian class for showing hard work and participation daily. I also use my gift of intelligence to help others who are falling behind in class and encourage them. I believe

This was the year of 2016, and this was the year that my life changed; I was forced to grow up and learn how to be more independent.

    For the majority of my life before coming to Texas A&M, I knew that I had to figure out a way to get here. Getting a college education would be my escape route to deviate away from becoming a low income family like my mother and her previous generations. My mother did the best she could to take of her three children by herself, but like many single parent households she struggled to do so. Due to my mom being the sole bread winner, there was often not enough money to maintain our household. I remember many days when we were only able to eat one meal a day that consisted either of half a chicken sandwich shared between my sister and I, or just a pack of saltine crackers.…

    After touring Georgia College, I became excited for the future ahead of me. I can visualize myself draped in a dark robe, standing on a stage to receive my diploma, thinking nostalgically of the memories I hold with GCSU. I think of the clubs I involved myself in such as environmental initiatives and community service clubs. I notice my peers who helped me to succeed, regardless of how overwhelmed I sometimes felt, who encouraged me and reminded me of my strengths. I reflect on the semester I spent abroad to embrace the Spanish culture and language.…

    On a sweltering summer day in the City of Atlanta or the “ATL” as it is affectionately known today, I visited my best friend while he visited his father for the summer. That day I remember vividly because as soon as we stepped outside of the airport to take the “MARTA” train, I began to sweat profusely. Anyone that has been to Atlanta during the summer knows it is incredibly humid there. A week earlier I had seen my friend, and we planned out what we were going to do that week I visited. I knew I wanted to visit Spellman College, Morehouse College, Clark Atlanta University, and Morris Brown College, but before I could visit the Atlanta University Center or the “AUC” as it is called to the locals, I felt compelled to visit the grave site of one of the most influential human being to walk this earth.…
