Recommended: Coney Island personal narratives

My most wonderful thoughts are with my parents on all the Coney Island trips they took me on. My parents always take time to do things that would keep me happy. They are the type of parents that always made time in their busy schedule for me. Coney Island was one of the ways they made me happy, and we spent lots of family time there bonding. Whenever we visited there, my parents and I always tried different foods. I was always the one to take the first bite. My first time eating frog legs was with my parents on Coney Island, I remember how much I love the taste of them. After we ate we would go on some thrilling rides, they were so much fun, and one of my favorite things to do with them was to sit on the boardwalk and watch the sunset into

    A year later we moved the United States, and i no longer had my favorite tacos to look forward to, instead I had burgers and hot dogs, and a million other things my small brain couldn 't comprehend. Every christmas we had chicken tamales, and at every party we had beef stew. It became a tradition; we were a meat family, and I the biggest meat eater of all. Soon after I discovered the wonders of rare meats and other cuisines, I became a veteran of Thai, Italian, Vietnamese, Korean, Mediterranean, and other new kinds of foods. I tried a plethora of eccentric meats; brain, tongue, eyeballs, tentacles; I even ate grasshoppers, and ants. Thus it was that I became one of the most dedicated and adventurous meat-eaters you were ever likely to meet. I liked my meat bloody, perhaps thirty seconds on each side, slap it on a plate and I would be

  • Pacific Homesick: Growing Up in Paradise

    650 Words  | 2 Pages

    Imagine yourself sitting on a lava rock cliff, hearing the ocean pounding the rock wall below. The salty sea spray cools your lips and the taste tickles your tongue. Feeling the sun against your skin, it is cooled by the mix of mist and breeze that plays with the palm trees. You could say I grew up in a place most people can only daydream about. When most people hear of where I grew up all they can picture is paradise. There is so much more to the “Aloha State” than the stale beachside hotels covered in an abundance of hibiscus prints with pineapples around every turn. The people, food, and land are the heart of the Hawaiian Islands.

    My original island is called the palm tree island. The island is shaped like a palm tree. That’s how it got it’s name. On the Palm Tree island there are a few stores, shops, and restaurants to go to. Every morning I can hear birds chirping like they were singing a song. I can also see many people jogging on the sidewalks before they go to work. The taste of coffee and donuts in the morning is always satisfying.

Even though the flight was short for me, it was stressful for my mom, she has never felt secured in a plane, probably due to the fact that she is afraid of height. When finally arrived at the destination, the dry and warm weather was there to welcome us. We all felt relief, and knew that this was the beginning of the summer.
