    Hello, I’m Chelsea Elizabeth McDaniel and this is my personal narrative! I was born in Phoenix, Arizona and lived in a large, one story house with my half-sister who at the time was 8 and my half-brother who at the time was 10. I went to Madison Elementary and then when I was 6 it was summer time, I went out back to see my dad having a drink on “the rocks” and for some reason I asked, “Hey Dad, are we ever going to move?”. I wasn’t expecting to wake up the next afternoon to the house entirely…

    I can still remember that day. If someone asked me, I thought the world was coming to a blazing end. Well, at least my world. It was a very warm and humid spring afternoon. It was unusually warm, especially for this time of the year in Poland, as Poland does not experience humidity, especially not in the spring. Instead, this was the typical type of weather found in the east coast of the United States: hot, humid, and almost unbearable. It was quite a coincidence actually; since this was the…

    The smell of dead fish and fried dumplings engulfed my nostrils as I ventured off into a foreign territory. I was then immediately bombarded with musty, humid air and noticeably large advertisements hanging above my head, all written in Chinese. Then, as I was walking with my head towards the sky, taking in my surroundings, I was abruptly stopped by a man, whom was slender and of Asian descent. He shoved a catalogue, that had listings of different counterfeit purses, into my hands and motioned…

    Describe a major problem you have faced and how you dealt with it. During a school coding project, I noticed one of my teammates was heading in the wrong direction. He was trying to solve a problem by using abstract classes that, albeit they would have worked, took a lot more effort to implement than regular classes. The regular classes would have done the job, and although it would have been nice to customize our classes, we had a deadline and at our current rate, we were not going to make it.…

We are also introduced to Mary, a maid of Aunt Tranter, and they meet when Ernestina was feeling unwell, so Charles decided to go exploring and tells Sam to deliver some flowers. A romance is hinted to start blooming between the two. I like the idea of the two together, besides it would keep Ernestina from thinking Mary stealing Charles from her and also limit the jealousy. But if Ernestina and Charles did not go through with their marriage, then it might be hard for the two…

As I had previously studied media planning and other business units, we decided it would be good to have both an arts approach and a business approach to marketing. By combining these two approaches, we are able to emulate our future professions and I believe this gave us a more believable and genuine…

    where I am going to college and my plans when I get there. I do normally go along with the compliment and take credit for my successes, in part because compliments make me recoil, and explaining the extent to your influence would be too expository and frankly unnecessary in some situations. Your effect on my life goes beyond what I could ever expect, or even consciously like, and your influence I constantly feel at rare but increasingly frequent moments of realization and introspection. I would…
