Personal Narrative: Sterling Parks Apartment

Decent Essays
Hey, so I think I have found a place. It is Sterling Parks Apartments. This is the quote she has given me to move in by Sunday. The only thing that is not included in this quote is the deposit that is dependent on my credit. The person I've been working with said it should be between 250-500 dollars. She told me that if I didn't move in by Sunday another unit could be prepared by the first of the month. Also I had a question about transportation down there. The situation is that my girlfriend traded her car in and I sold mine to obtain a newer car 6 months ago, so we only have one vehicle. So I would have to rent a car or fly. If I flew down I would be dependent on others to get around, and I don't want to be a burden or hindrance. I know this

I live in a community where there are mostly Hispanics, and where there are always car passing by and honking, during the day it is the only sound you can here, and ear-piercing bird calls, but during the night there is always some kind of party, either that or just really loud music. I have grown to get use…

    My residential community has had a great impact on me. The community provides an ideal atmosphere to meet a variety of people. Not only does the residential community promote diversity and inclusion, but it has also granted me the unique opportunity of leading in a college atmosphere. After arriving at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, I started spending most of my time in the lobby because my room did not have air conditioning. While in the lobby, I met a racially and geographically diverse group of people.…

    I was 13 years old, just starting off high school, when I realized what this dark cloud that’s been floating over me for the past couple of months really is. It wouldn’t be until more than a year later until I seek out professional help. It started off innocently enough as just a feeling of constant emptiness at the pit of my stomach. It slowly turned into randoms bouts of extreme rage, where I’d take out my anger physically, not just on the walls and mirrors of my childhood home and not just on my family, but on myself. I couldn’t understand why I felt this way, why I wasn’t “normal”.…

Little did I know that the next few moments would put my hard work to some use.…

    I once took a very long walk around Manhattan and found myself drawn to the sounds of trumpets and laughter in Washington Square Park. At the time, I had no interest in learning about college, but my brother forced me to take an NYU pamphlet. I read that bright purple booklet full of smiling faces at least twenty times on the plane ride home. I was hooked. Once I got home, I learned everything I could about NYU.…
