Personal Narrative: What Is Fake

Improved Essays
Do you know that feeling when you see something, or hear something so good that it couldn’t be true? Or hear of a story that at start you believe is fake, but then start to believe it after you witness something the same as the story? I knew that slides were fun, without water or not. And it was an opinion that I deeply believed in, that these things were fun. I believed them for so long until I went on vacation and saw the bad part about having fun. One day, when me, my mom, and my dad were bored of being at home, we decided to go on our yearly vacation trip to the poconos. We began the ride in our car, and we went there the same way every year, so we know the place well. Once we see a small fake cabin after 2 hours of driving, we know we

    When people act obnoxious and disrespectful, I would just like to go up to them and say “I was at about six there. Don’t make me go to ten”, a quote said by Dale in Step Brothers. My pet peeves involve the disrespectful actions of high school students. It really irks me when people in band just don’t play their music correctly or march properly. If we have been practicing the same song for a short amount of time, then I understand if most don’t pick up the notes right away.…

    In the middle of my sophomore year, I was asked by a senior if I would like to be the president of a dance club they had started that year. The club members knew that I was apart of a well known dance studio. I was indecisive primarily because the club only had 3 members and so I did not know how I could make it into something starting off alone and young, but something told me to just go for it. And that I did.…

    I managed to reach a point where I began making false promises to myself and others about addressing my situation. Among those empty promises was the one where I claimed I would give up drinking, attend rehab and try to get my life back on track. I even fiddled with the thought of seeking inpatient assistance if things weren't working as planned. Let's be clear and fair.…

    “Congratulations!!” read one post on a friend’s Facebook wall, the day after she landed an office job in her field. “So amazing!” read another. “Are you ready for your big-girl job?” asked a third well-wisher, accompanied by a GIF of Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope. “I can’t believe I finally have a real job” was the text she sent me a few days later, from the comfort of her desk, where she had been hired to do operations work for an organization she had once, a few years prior, interned for.…

    The social norm that I violated was singing out loud on a public place. Well I did not really get to sing loudly on a bus or train. I did however sing loudly while I was shopping in Wal-Mart. I thought it was the next best thing than singing on a bus or something. Since there are tons of people at Wal-Mart in the first place.…

    The norm may not always be the right way to go. I no longer want to be a part of a popular or important group of people, if I feel that what the group is doing or believes in is wrong, even if it means I'm not a part of the norm. I am not afraid to stand out on my own. I have challenged this belief for many years. When I was in elementary school, I was bullied by a group of girls that I hung with, looked up to and idolized.…

    When I was a teenager I worked in a donut shop. It so happened that the place was sold to a family and was not a corporately owned. In the hope of saving money, they decided to cut labor and asked the hostess’ to do all the cleaning, including the washrooms. The age I was at cleaning was not my cup of tea, therefore, I made it clear to the owners I will do everything else, but clean the washrooms, as I don’t even do that at home, and my mom wouldn’t even let me. The owner’s reply was, “you people should be used to that kind of work, what do you mean you can’t do it,” and a whole lot of other inappropriate things that I won’t get into.…

    For the past year, I have hidden behind a wall of insecurity. Being a Mexican-American in today's politically charged society has separated me from the rest of the country. It is now evident that racism is well and alive in our country and was merely concealed for years until now. Now, Mexicans and other various ethnic groups are oppressed daily and labeled as “unfit” and “unwanted”. As for Mexicans, President Donald Trump thinks he has a good solution.…

    It couldn’t have been past 10 a.m. when the alarm went off. We all knew what it meant- we were firefighters, it’s what we do. The fire chief told us that an apartment complex in downtown Boston had gone ablaze, and that it was really bad. We quickly got into our uniforms and hopped on as the fire truck left the station. We were a few miles away before I saw the smoke, a dark giant against the bright blue sky.…

    For example my mom told me that the first time I was on the plane I was having way too much fun with the turbulence, that while everyone was scared of the really heavy I was laughing and thinking about it as a roller coaster. I went every year to Santo Domingo by small charter planes that my family would rent out. Also for the first few years of my life, it think it stopped when I was around 8, I went to my grandmothers on my father’s side house in Florida to Disneyland and the other parks in Orlando. I’ve also always really loved roller coasters. Been going to theme parks since a young age… even the cheap one that were over in Puerto Rico that you could swear would brake if you got…
