Personal Writing: Fragment - Changes in Life

Outline

Thesis Statement: Changes in life like these can change you both physically and

mentally for the rest of your life depending on the severity of the

situation.

I. In early August of `96 my life at home became a living nightmare.

II. I applied to the first ad I saw in the paper and strangely enough, I

actually got a call from Ramada Inn in less than 3 days after applying.

III. In my lifetime I have seen a lot of weird things and have had lots of

home. I would do anything and go anywhere just to get away from my parents;

even if it meant going somewhere that I had always hated going before. When I

couldn't get out of the house I tried my best to stay in my room and keep the

door closed. When they decided that they didn't want me in my room where they

couldn't fuss at me they came up with this big idea that I was trying to hide
