Creative Writing: TJ Olmsted Room-Personal Narrative

442 Words1 Page

TJ Olmsted sprinted out of the tunnel. A brisk autumn breeze had found its way into the stadium. TJ took his helmet off and stood there, letting the wind comb through his dark hair. The fresh Utah air filled his lungs. He could smell the grass, the popcorn, the hot dogs. Listening to the roar of the crowd, TJ grinned. There's no day like game day. He thought. Suddenly a voice broke into TJ’s thoughts. A loud one. “What’re you doin Olmsted!” Startled, TJ spun around. His coach was staring at him with a confused expression on his face. TJ was a big guy. He could bench his own weight and he once took down Rob Gronkowski at the three yard line to win a playoff game. Even so, that man scared TJ to death. He knew better than to get on coach's

  • Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own

    655 Words  | 2 Pages

    In chapter two of A Room of One’s Own, Virginia Woolf introduces the reader to the uncomfortable conditions existing between men and women during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Woolf’s character, Mary Beton, surveys books about women at the British Museum and discovers that nearly all of them are written by men. What’s more, the books that she does find express negative sentiments about women, leading Beton to believe that men are expressing “anger that had gone underground and mixed itself with all kinds of other emotions” (32). She links this repressed anger to man’s need to feel superior over women, and, wondering how and why men have cause to be angry with the female sex, she has every right to be angry with men.

This was the most important game for any sports franchise that had any significance to me. It almost made me shiver, thinking about the joy and celebration that would occur if the Seahawks won the Super Bowl. I listened to the excited chatter all around me, impatient for the game to start, having never experienced an atmosphere so ecstatic, so energetic, so euphoric for a sporting event.

  • Personal Narrative-Therapist's Waiting Room

    I muttered those words at a volume that could only be heard by my own ears. The waiting room was torture, and the waiting was even more torturous. Two fake, and very plastic looking plants sat in the corner, shining abnormally in the harsh lighting. My palms were sweaty from anxiety and the unbearable heat that seemed to encase the room. My mom sat at the couch opposite of me, her reading glasses illuminated from the glow of her cell phone. Music played softly from the empty front desk that sat behind a wooden baby gate. It wasn’t that I expected a therapist’s waiting room to look like. I expected obnoxiously cheerful posters telling me to keep on living and to be healthy. I arrived in that room with an attitude that could put what I felt boiling over inside me to shame.

    Amidst a long, desiccated tunnel, that leads from the aesthetic outside world, into the excruciating world, where time stands still. A blinding hallway that is like an entrance to an insane asylum, with pictures and flyers drenching the hallway walls. The smooth tile blanched my eyes, with their reflexive capabilities. The effete doors looking like windows into the abyss. The ephemeral thumping causes the metal to rattle. Entering through the growling doors, and ordinarily seeing all those desks, just like entering in on a colossal crowd. In the gargantuan, white room, away from all living things, I took a monumental exam that would guide the rest of my mathematical life.
