My middle school experience was good, though there were some ups and downs. When I signed up for Bethany Community Middle School my thoughts immediately wandered to what it was going to be like. Middle school was obviously going to be a lot different from elementary school. I prepared for the transition through my older sister, as I am with this one. In sixth grade, in my first class there looked to be twenty or so students. I was anxious and overwhelmed for the first week. I then realized that middle school wasn't as scary as I thought. Though, it didn't help that one of my first assignments was a presentation. I was afraid that if I messed up or said something wrong then everyone would have started laughing at me.

Personal Narrative: My Experience As A Middle School Student

When I first attended Forest Hills Northern in March of my 8th grade year, I instantly felt an overwhelming welcome from the staff and students at FHN.

Narrative of Adolescence Years Abstract This paper is a narrative of my adolescent years from twelve to eighteen.

Don T Give Up The Fight Analysis

over the course of three years. I love to write fictional narratives; there’s no rules, boundaries, and infinite possibilities to express your emotions, thoughts, and messages in the art of writing. The time for this process and picking this piece couldn’t be more perfect. I have recently started Cape Henry Track, and I can directly relate to how Anna feels after running--tired. I also found it interesting writing about a side of two of my best friends, Faith and Anna, that doesn't necessarily exist…

Ms. Thao Nguyen Essay 2: Research Narrative 03/07/2023 Beyond the Fantasy Baywatch, the iconic TV series that graced the screens of millions around the world, is held as a nostalgic relic of the ‘90s. Its portrayal of the sun-kissed beaches of LA, the adrenaline-pumping rescues, and of course, the impossibly attractive lifeguards who patrolled the shores with unwavering diligence resonated deeply with audiences. In seventh grade (very much after the 90s), my friend and I would watch religiously…

Ap English Class Reflection

In my high school career, the most interesting course I have taken is AP English Literature and Composition during my Junior year. Being a higher-level course, this class challenged me as a reader, a writer, and a thinker. While we read similar novels to other students around the country, such as The Great Gatsby, Othello, and In The Time of the Butterflies, the way my instructor taught us to apply the readings and lessons to everyday life seemed out-of-the-ordinary. AP English Literature and Composition…

Illness Narrative Analysis

Daniel Felsenfeld's Rebel Music

Felsenfeld’s narrative, “Rebel Music”, he talks about his interaction with classical music within his early to adult life. This appeals to me because I fit quite similarly to the kind of story he tells, but more on the vocal music spectrum of things. The drive of his essay was to dictate how he categorizes himself as a rebel. To me, it brought up how he learned to fall in love with music, the meaning of being a “rebel”, and how it became a passion. When assessing and responding to a narrative discussing…

The Arrival Essay

over much of my previous work as an illustrator and writer, such as The Rabbits (about colonisation), The Lost Thing (about a creature lost in a strange city) or The Red Tree (a girl wandering through shifting dreamscapes), I realise that I have a recurring interest in notions of ‘belonging’, particularly the finding or losing of it. Whether this has anything to do with my own life, I’m not sure, it seems to be more of a subconscious than conscious concern. One contributing experience may have been…
