Personal Narrative: My First Day At The Texas Home

Improved Essays
January 1st 2016 I miss a text message from Jim, the next day he texts me again and I go to the skate park and says “What are you doing tomorrow?” I said “nothing.” “do you want to go snowboarding tomorrow?” he said I replied faster than shit, “fuck yeah honky, lets do this.” We left to the town of Glacier, Washington. But first we stopped off in Maple Falls, were I ended up getting lost in a crowd of Mexicans that unloaded from a single SUV. We finally found each other after 15 minutes and we just laughed our asses off. That night I was introduced to who my new life of friends would be. We started off at The Texans house. Dropped off our gear and went to Ryan Davis's house. It was mind blowing to me. I had no idea what I was in for. Great

    As a young armadillo growing up in Texas during the 1820s, my life was peaceful and happy. The Federalists who held power in Mexico left me, my fellow armadillos, and the Anglo Americans alone to enjoy and work the land. However, in 1829, the Centralists gained control of the Mexican government and the freedom we enjoyed gradually eroded. As the Mexican government imposed more regulations on the Anglo Americans, the tension which had existed between the two groups due to the Nacogdoches land grant, become even more palpable.…

During this time, I assume everyone in Texas wears a cowboy hat, boots, talks in a southern accent such as saying y’all and other such stereotypes. I assume the general understanding of Texas from what I was taught as a kid in movies, music, and shows.

It was my first Little League baseball game ever, and my dad wanted to make sure it wasn’t my last. Being seven years old and never touching a baseball was something that had scared me; a lot.

The car ride from my house was only a few minutes away from the fields where I would begin my baseball career.…
