Personal Narrative
When I was in about the fourth grade I strive to be just like the other kids in my grade but I didn't feel the same as the other kids in my grade. I use to go to other classrooms rather than be with everyone else. I use to hate leaving the classroom and feeling like I never fit in or wasn't good enough like the other kids.

But then I remembered to myself as I get older I’m going to show every one of those teachers I am just like everyone else and I can do the same material that day and I won’t struggle on trying to understand it.
Freshman year of high school came and I could finally do more things on my own. I was making all straight A’s and making Honor roll, perfect attendance, and I even got a 4.0 GPA or higher. I felt like I have accomplished a lot of goals that
