Personal Narrative- Improved Writing Essay -- Personal Narrative
My first real writing experience happened my junior year at HHS. It was the second to last day of school of my sophomore year, and I happened to be flipping through the course descriptions book, and was thinking of an English class to take next year. Well, I sat there and sat there thumbing through the pages, and finally, one particular class appealed to me. I thought, "WOW, this is a class I should take!" "Yeah right," but I still decided to register for American Lit.anyway. Well, the school year finally ended, and I wasnââ¬â¢t too happy for next yearââ¬â¢s school year to begin. "I mean, American Lit. was going to be boring with all the reading, not to mention all the writing, too." But I didnââ¬â¢t consider the writing to be a big problem, because I had gotten to be pretty good at it by my junior year, or so I thought. To move on, the summer didnââ¬â¢t last long enough for me. I had tons of fun being at the cabin, fishing and stuff. But the thought of going back to school bothered me, so that kind of ruined my summer. And before I knew it, I was lying in bed the night before my first day of "hell" tossing and turning all night because I knew I was doomed for the next nine months of my life. "Finally," I said as I woke up after two hours of sleep, "letââ¬â¢s get this over with." I ran out the door without breakfast, and I was already fifteen minutes late by the time I got to school. I walked into my first class. It sucked. I walked into my second class, and that also sucked! American Lit. was next. "I donââ¬â¢t even know why I registered for this," I thought as I strolled into the classroom and took my seat way in the back. The teacher then walked in and said her name was Ms.Schmidt. "Man, she looks pretty damn old," I said under my bre... ...o work through this nasty theme habit. "Now that we have gone over pretty much everything I know about writing a good paper," my teacher said after six months of afterschool sessions, "I want you to write one paper for me, one that will show me my time wasnââ¬â¢t wasted with you." So I went back to my very first paper on Hester Prynne, and rewrote it. I came back the next day, turned it in, and anxiously awaited her comments. "What is takinââ¬â¢ so long for her to read my frickinââ¬â¢ paper?" I asked myself. Fifteen minutes later she was finally done. "My time wasnââ¬â¢t wasted with you. This paper shows me your creativeness as a writer. How you related Hester Prynneââ¬â¢s character to someone you know was really interesting. This paper held my attention throughout itsââ¬â¢ entirety. I canââ¬â¢t say enough about your dramatic improvement in writing. I am really proud of you, Alex."
