Winter Break Narrative

Improved Essays
It was the last night of winter break and I had a indoor baseball practice on the snowy night. The practice was going well as we were taking ground balls and working hitting on our swings. I was hitting in the cage and next you know, “Crack”, blood was rushing down the back of my head. Off balance, barely being able to see straight, everything was a blur. The person in the cage behind me let go of the bat and hit me in the back of the head. My coach bolted over, “Is everything ok”, he asked. I was in so much shock I couldn’t even process the question. My teammates explained to him what happened and he called my parents immediately. All I remember was being rushed to the hospital by my parents while blood was dripping down my neck. Once we

    I felt a sharp pain, suddenly stopped, and fell to the ground. I had to be carried off the field. I didn’t even get hit by anything, something just felt like it snapped.

    The anticipation for Thanksgiving break is over the top. The thought of home cooked meals, family, and no professors talking a student 's ear off for a week are heavenly. Of course all the classic thanksgiving things happen but there are also psychological things that go on. (Darn that psychology sneaking its way into everything, it obviously never goes on break.) Although psychology is used every minute of every day i 'm only going to talk about 5 concepts, persuasion, cognition, emotion, personality, and the self.…

    I distinctly remember getting up one Saturday morning during Christmas break and knowing from that instant that something was wrong. I had a feeling in my gut, I did not smell the cinnamon rolls baking in the oven, the TV was blaring, and my parents bed was not made. I walk out into the living room to find my mom and dad glued to CNN news channel on the TV. It had been two weeks since my brother’s last shore leave on deployment, which means it had been two weeks since we have heard from him. The TV was flashing and the headlines were running across the screen.…

    Christmas break in my opinion is probably the second best brake that we have throughout our school year. The main thing I like about Christmas break is how long it is. But even though I like how long we are off school it's almost like we don't have a break because basketball takes over. We get a few days off but the rest of the days are hitting the gym early in the mornings for two to three hours a day. The days I have is the best thing in the world because I get to relax and do something fun for once.…
