    It was a Monday night; I remember it like it was yesterday. I had just completed my review of Office Administration in preparation for my final exams. As part of my leisure time, I decided to watch my favorite reality television show, “I love New York,” when the telephone rang. I immediately felt my stomach dropped. The feeling was similar to watching a horror movie reaching its climax. The intensity was swirling in my stomach as if it were the home for the butterflies. My hands began to sweat and I got very nervous. I could not figure out for the life of me why these feelings came around. I lay there on the couch, confused and still, while the rings continued.

    October 10, 2013 was the day my grandmother passed away. While this may not seem to be significant, this was a monumental moment in my life.

  • Memoir of My Mother

    It seemed like a normal day when I entered Mrs. A’s AP Language and Composition class, but little did I know that she was going to assign a very important project that was going to take forever. I took my seat and wrote down what was on the board. Then I sat patiently and waited for Mrs. A to come explain what we were doing today. When the tardy bell rang, Mrs. A glided into the room and gave us all a stack of papers. She then proceeded to discuss our upcoming assignment, a memoir. As she explained the very important assignment, I wondered whom I would write about. No one really came to mind to write about and I thought for sure I would never be able to get this thing done on time. I finally decided that I would write in on my mother, Kari Jenson. I knew I would probably put the project off until the very end and do it the weekend before even though it would get on my mom’s nerves. Putting work off was just how I did everything, it worked for me. When I arrived home from school that day, I told mom about the project. I told her I would most likely write it about her and she was overjoyed.

  • Personal Narrative: My Beloved Grandmother, Bertha

    Christopher Reeve once wrote, “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.” I believe that ones hero is not only someone they look to for strength, but also find inspiration to make it through their own obstacles in life. A hero might not be dressed in a flowing cape, or wear a suite made of material able to withstand the heat of red, molten lava, but someone that you find refuge in. My inspiration is my beloved Grandmother, Bertha. The inspiration I find in my Grandmother Bertha stems from her love for everyone, the endearing way she spoke, and her ability to find the light in any negative situation.
