My life is comprised of many other facets that I would like to further highlight. For one, I am well versed with people of different cultures. Family reunions are my favorite because I get to spend time with my Asian relatives along with my relatives of Irish decent. I find myself to be culturally adept learning about different cultures through my travels to many countries including Costa Rica, France, England, Austria, and Germany where I have had the honor and pleasure of practicing my Spanish while learning the challenging European highway systems. I enjoy traveling and am always up for an adventure. Geocaching awakens the treasure hunter and problem solver in me. I would like travel next to Japan where I can learn more about my heritage

    Personal Narrative: Multi-Cultural Traditions

    Through the years, I have moved to almost 3 culturally different countries, my experiences have been nothing less of hectic. From changing to country to country to school to school. I have be-friended people from all around the world and have managed to gather a few bits and pieces from each of their cultures. It is so fascinating finding out about traditions around the world. To strive in a multi-cultural atmosphere would obviously be tough, but I have thankfully done it more than once.…

    Effects Of Immigration To America

    My life has allowed me to be exposed to people from all over the world. I have family scattered across America and Europe. I travel to Texas yearly, and Germany every three years, and have taken many other trips as well. In addition, my parents are both college professors, so I have grown up in college towns and been exposed to all the diversity that comes with them. This exposure to many different kinds of people and lifestyles has contributed to and had a large impact on the person that I am today.…

    Personal Narrative

    Do you remember when you were a little kid and you had to climb on your counter-top to reach a cabinet? I remember it as if it was yesterday, maybe because it really was. All my life I have been dramatically smaller than all my peers. I have always been ostracized for the fact of my height which, in fact I have no jurisdiction over . I have always lived by the motto “Heart over height” in every aspect of life, and in every endeavor I encounter.…

    I work for my dad on our family ranch in Jones Creek, Texas. The work is hard, backbreaking, and tiring. Everyday when I get home I eat the meal that my momma makes for us: there is no arguing whether or not that is what you are having for supper. Every night I get in bed completely wore out from a hard days work, then I wake up to do it all again in the morning. This job is not for everyone, however it is for me.…

    Personal Narrative

    Another hot summer in Idaho at another family reunion. I chased after my dad and brother’s cloud of dust; reving my ATV’s (all terrain vehicle) engine I whipped around the land my great great uncle homesteaded on. My confidence grew as did my speed until my wheel caught and spun me right into a log that pierced through the fender and into my leg. It was the first time I ever blacked out. When I came too a few seconds later I was alone; high on the trails of the Sawtooth mountains, blood gushing from my shin.…

    Personal Narrative

    I was 23 before I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. As far back as Elementary school I knew that there was something “off” in the way that I processed information. That my ability to do well academically was somehow hindered by not having certain tools that I needed, tools I wasn’t even aware existed. In high school, I began to augment my deficits with strengths. Where my grades were lacking I made up for it through creativity; I excelled at art and photography.…

    Personal Narrative

    In third grade, a boy named Blake - a notorious troublemaker - would chase every girl during class trying to kiss her on the lips. Most of the girls gave in eventually. It was easier to give in than to keep running. When it was my day to be chased, I turned to him, grabbed his glasses off his pudgy face, and stomped on them in front of all the kids on the blacktop. He ran to the principal's office and cried.…

    Jackie Robinson once said “I’m not concerned with your liking or disliking me… all I ask is that you respect me as a human being.” This was my motto as i moved to the USA from Egypt at the age of six years old. Although i was not as old as i am now it was still tough. Thanks to determination and persistence i was able to not only make it in school but understand the language and speak it. It had been a year after my brother was born, i had made a lot of friends in kindergarten, had my dad’s side of the family here, i had finally learned to read and write a little bit of Arabic, and was about to go to first grade.…

    A talent that sets me apart from other students and makes me unique is my ability to spell.

In this essay, I will take you on my journey of how I started spelling and the accomplishments I earned along the way.

    Personal Narrative

    Dirt from the branches and leaves I rammed through glued to the sweat on my forehead as it dripped down my face; it stung my eyes and blinded me as I ran through the maze of trees. Despite the pain, dirt wasn’t going to stop or slow my sprint from the scene I had just encountered. “Right at the river, left, straight,” I murmured to myself, looking down at the path of transparent blue rocks that my sister and I had laid down earlier this summer. We figured that if we ever couldn’t find our way back through the woods to our house, then we could follow the colorful stones that we stole from our other sister’s fish tank. But, the sun was seemingly tired and getting ready for night time, so the blue began to blend in with the dirty pebbles around them.…

    Personal Narrative

    After receiving the holy spirit from preacher Jonathan Shuttlesworth this past Wednesday, I think it’s time I stop drowning myself in desolate grim nights of self doubt. He told the crowd, with every head bowed every eye closed and the holy spirit present in the room, “When something unfortunate happens, people always compliment the devil saying he’s strong and we never seem to remember how much more powerful and mighty God is.” Everyone in the once murmuring room must have guiltily apologized in their heads or said an apologetic silent prayer — it was true. That was my mindset.…

    Personal Narrative

    I once believed that reticence was an inseparable part of me, a destined, immutable flaw within my genes. At the age of seven, I was diagnosed with some sort of autistic disorder after a psychiatrist asked me to tell him what I saw from diagrams of colorful inkblots. True, a timid kid, known as the shyest among the shy, I used to converse with my father like this: “Were you uncomfortable with speaking?” “No…” “ Did you have anything in mind when the teacher asked questions?” “Yes, I think so.”…
