Personal Narrative Rough Draft. My name is Ryan Brown. I am 13 years old and in the 8th grade, and my dream is to become a lawyer. I want to lead a fulfilling life, and to be able to provide for my family. My main goal is to help people who normally wouldn’t be able to get high-end legal representation. I am going to maintain good grades in high school by working hard and utilizing study techniques to get a head start outside of school. All of this effort will pay off when I go to a good college, then a good law school.

To become a well-respected, renowned, and highly-paid lawyer, I’ll be honest with my clients. I need to be confident and charismatic, but I also want to be kind and likable. To have a shot at a top 20 college, you need to maintain good grades and …show more content…
I want to be a kinder person, and I want to be able to talk to someone and see how they feel internally. I especially want to be able to think on a deeper level and be able to analyze someone’s ulterior motives for a decision. Learning these skills at this early age will strengthen my ability to argue in court, which will be especially helpful if I become a trial lawyer. I have a basic understanding of the structure of formal debate and proper court proceedings, and I am already decent at arguing. I want to improve these skills over the summer by writing four argumentative essays. As a person, I want to inspire others. I want to show people what they’re capable of, teaching them to put their negative attitudes aside.

However, to go to law school and be able to focus on my studies, I need to start putting money away. If I have to work often while studying, I won’t be as focused as I could be. I’ll do this by getting a job next summer, when I’m old enough to do so. I’ll set up a savings account and learn to invest. I know that if I work hard, use my strengths to my advantage, and maintain a positive attitude, I’ll become a successful

Final Project Essay

submitting the first draft of my narrative essay in Module Three, I learned a couple things about writing. First, I could phrase a thesis statement and place it in the introductory paragraph without giving away the whole gist of my narrative right off. Professor Stocklos very eloquently guided me to rephrase what I had written about playing with my mom’s shoes as a child and use that as a metaphor for stepping into her role as an adult after her death. (Module Three Rough Draft Feedback, Professor…

Response To Moira Crone's Pecos Bill

At this point, I am sure that you have read numerous essays on Moira Crone’s “Pecos Bill.” For the amount of times that I have read over my essay, I guess that I have also read a few “essays” on the story myself! The cardinal lesson that I pulled from “Pecos Bill” was the importance of small, seemingly insignificant actions, and the impact that they can have on an individual. As I read Crystal’s story, I began to relate to her. Even though I am not from New Orleans and I am not an alcoholic, I could…
