This passage is based on a hard time when my sister and I both did something wrong but did not confess to it and neither did I at first. When I was around 8 years old, me and my sister a huge argument about us going somewhere(I don’t exactly remember the two places) and we both didn’t like where eachother wanted to go, so we were screaming throughout the whole entire house.This was not what we needed to be doing because as a kid, you always want something that your sibling doesn’t want to do. My parents were outside working on something in the garage when all of this was going down, so they were not able to hear us arguing and fighting. As we were arguing, my sister goes storming off to her room and starts to scream and that’s is when my parents heard the sound of the scream and came inside and see what happened. My parents heard my sister crying and knew that she as either very angry or upset so I knew they were going to talk to me first, but they wouldn’t be happy. My …show more content…

    The comparison between siblings has become a universal problem over the past several decades, as implied in Peg Kehret’s elementary monologue, I’m NOT My Brother; I’m Me. Through Jonathan, Kehret expresses the valuable message to never judge people based on the characteristics of their siblings. As the oldest child in my family, I support Kehret’s message and additionally believe that every individual is different and hence, should not be judged or compared with their siblings, family members or friends.

  • Why I Disagree By Isabella Jackson-Saitz Analysis

    I was the oldest child of two by three and a half years which led to a sense of my knowing best– as well as my sister’s habit of thinking she did. Like most elder siblings, I became practiced at contradicting whatever statement she made. I took pleasure both in “winning” our squabbles and in the act of learning how to win. I feel certain that, had I been an only child, I would not disagree so often as I do. Nevertheless I was not angry or contrary; I tended to confine my audible arguments to my sister or close

  • Being a Twin- Personal Narrative

    542 Words  | 2 Pages

    As I walk through the crowded mall with my sister, little children stare, most adults do a discreet double take, and some bold adults question us outright. “Wow, are you twins?” “Do you know you look the same?” “What’s it like to be a twin?” “Do you have, like, psychic powers, or something with each other?” These are the most common questions twins hear. Almost all twins don’t really mind them and sometimes the attention is cool. Mostly, we just smile tolerantly at each other and answer them as best we can. After all, we don’t really know how to describe being a twin. We have never known anything else. Nonetheless, here we are. So, as a person who might not know exactly what she is talking about, I will try to briefly explanation to the general public the experience of being a genetic quirk.

  • Personal Narrative: My Family Culture

    After reading different articles and learning more about African American culture, it made me want to find out more about my own family culture. There are different traditions that are pasted down in generations, which could have been a part of African culture that we don’t realize such as parenting styles. I don’t remember hearing too many stories about my past relatives growing up, so I had to find out more on my family experiences in the south. Also, I wanted to see how spirituality played a roll in my family choices. My goal in this paper is to show how I got a better understanding of the reason my family could be structured the way it is now.

  • Personal Narrative: My Growth As A Twin

    I remember that at an early age that I was never alone, whether the reminder comes from family or strangers, I have always had a constant reminder that helped me to feel safe in the world, but in other people’s eyes, I am not an individual but I am only a half of a whole. When I was little there was a time when I didn’t know that being a twin, an identical twin at that, would hinder my growth as an individual. According to Burke, when asked what makes you unique her reply was “I don’t know”, followed with “because I have a twin.” When asked to elaborate as to why she doesn’t know, her response was “we’re compared and seen as the same person even though in some ways i’m different from her, like the fact that I was born with my own brain and

    I must have been a very little girl, probably about four years old. The memory is somewhat fuzzy, but I do remember that I had been naughty and that I had been made to stand in the corner of our dining room as a result. I think I was being punished for my antics at the dinner table. While I stood there feeling incredibly sorry for myself, I could hear the rest of my family in the other room talking and laughing. This only made me feel even more sad and alone than before. I began to feel neglected and I decided that my mother had forgotten about me.

  • Personal Narrative: The Relationship With My Family

    941 Words  | 2 Pages

    In the past couple years, I faced emotions of loneliness, worthlessness and even depression. I spent those years trying to figure out what was the cause of these serious emotions and one of the answers that I stumbled upon was when I finally talked to a therapist about dealing with my depression. The simple answer was the relationship with my family and the environment I was in; Figuring out what to do about it was the next giant leap. Throughout history, America has been known as an immigrant country that uses the phrase “The American Dream” over and over, but what is it really? “That dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement.” (James Truslow

  • Personal Narrative: An Outsider In My Family

    I never would have imagined feeling like an outsider in my own home. Unfortunately I wouldn’t even go as far as considering my current home as “my home.” I live in a house with eight people and two dogs and for some, that might not even be slightly overwhelming, but for me it is. I try to keep my heart open about the situation, but I always end up feeling like I don’t belong. Given the circumstances of my situation, I would say life definitely turned out better than what I initially expected, but I was left feeling like a “stranger in a village” having to live with a family that is nothing like my own.

    I’ve never had a close relationship with any of my five older siblings. As we’ve gotten older we’ve drifted apart so much that I don’t really remember what my sister even looks like. Most likely this was caused by the fact that none of us have the same mother, although we share the same father, making it harder for us to see each other.
