Persuasive: Final Draft

Ha have you ever been to Las Vegas? Well I have it was for my birthday I was truing 14 when we went to Vegas. We had a very long drive, we had a lot of excitement and we were all happy that we were going to Vegas. Because we had to save a lot of our money for 6 months. I hadn’t spent money for 6 months that we saved up. Then we were all most there when our car started to act up so we desisted that we need to get to a gas station to see what was going on so when we pulled up to the gas station we opened the hood of the car and we saw that there was antifreeze going all over the radiator so we went to work looking for a hole and when we found it we fixed it and it was hard for me and my dad to get it and so it took us about a hour. Then when we got back on the road it was so good that meant that we were heading to Vegas again and I felt that no one could stop us and we got more excited then what we were all ready because we got closer and that meant that we out of Utah and we were in Arizona and one state a way from Vegas and it was get very late and ever one was tired. When we got there we were to excited that we did not wont to go to bed so we were up tell the sun all most came out and then we finally all fell a sleep and we did not wake up tell it was about 12:00 in the afternoon so we got up and went swimming in the coolest looking pool that I have ever saw it was like a octagon and it was the biggest pool that was in Vegas and then when sun was starting to go down we went back to our room and change our cloths and got ready to go out to the big city and to see what all was in Vegas that we did not know what was there.

Coke is unhealthy. It may be a great tasting drink. Think about all the sugar, calories, and caffeine could affect your body and health all three of those chemicals are harmful to your health there are a lot more chemicals in coke that can harm your body.

Coke may taste good but its bad. Although those unhealthy chemicals are in the drink. There what makes the drink taste so good. If it didn’t taste good people would never drink it. People who fall in addiction with this drink is because the UN healthy chemicals in the drink.

You waste money. When you spend two bucks on coke you do not realize that you will not have the drink forever. Once you drink the drink it is gone. You could have bought something that you needed with those two bucks. Instead of spending it on an unhealthy substance.

People don’t think about the consequences of drinking coke.
They just buy coke. The calories could add a couple pounds to your body that you do not want. The caffeine could keep you awake for a couple hours when you need to get up early. The sugar can do both add a couple pounds and keep you awake.

I personally love coke. But writing this paper helped me realize how harmful this liquid is to my body. I suggest that you save your money and buy a healthier substance. Just consider all the facts that I gave you to look at. And think do I really want to harm my body.

Dear Wes, from James, whats up how are you doing? I just wanted
You no you are a great person. You are also a leader and not a follower
After all of our conversations , I found out you’re a person who cares
About life. My topic is on a convertible mustang, That is my dream
Car in life. They run good, gas is cheap, that’s how I think of it.

I think my tracker Wesley Mangum is a really good person. Because
He helps you have a better day when you are felling down or having
A bad day. Also we always talk about convertible mustangs. Because
It is really fancy and expensive. It is also really fast , it runs really
Well.

The motor hardly ever dies on you. When you are listening to music
You will notice how good the systen in the car works very well. One
Of my opinions is that it will smoke a mitsibishi eclipse in a race. The
Doors come up really easily. Some reasons why I didn’t like mustangs.

Because the motor won’t.

Narrative: Final Paper

After my grandparent’s died my uncle told us we had 3 months to move. I went to school and told every one that I had to move. Every one at school was happy at the time I didn’t have any friends. I was happy to be moving mostly because I didn’t have any friends. The whole time we were getting ready to move I couldn’t stop thinking I will make friends. Life will be better, things will be a lot easier, and Cade and me will get along better after we move. I truly believed this.

Before we could move we had to find some where to live. Mom wanted to stay close to American Fork. I wanted to get as far away from American Fork. We looked at an apartment in Pleasant Grove. It had a really nice set up I wanted to move there but we couldn’t afford it. We later found a beat up trailer in Orem we could afford to live in. I hated that we had to live in a trailer.

The trailer needed to be fixed up so we started by taking out walls, painting rooms, sanding down the floor, and a lot of other work. There was a lot of work needed towards it. We would go every day down to Orem we would sometimes get there at noon and stay working on it until midnight. I didn’t like being at the trailer it was boring and exhausting work.

We finally packed our stuff and moved in to the house it was two months until summer. I immediately started school at Bonneville elementary. I was excited for the first day new school, new people, and of course new friends. I went to school and immediately people started to be my friend I was happy. Zeke became my first friend at the time I was in sixth grade. Him and me have been friends since then.

I realized that if my grandparents hadn’t died, if my uncle hadn’t kicked us out, and if we hadn’t moved to Orem I wouldn’t have met the people I did. I would never came to Summit. I learned that things could have gotten a lot worse I could still be in American Fork where I had no friends. I have friends that I can trust i'm happy just to have that. There are times that I do miss living American Fork because of all the memory’s that I have there.

“It will only be for a couple of days”.said my caseworker. “were just
putting you in an emergency group home until your mother can find stabiltiy”.
So I finally agreed to stay at the Christmas Box House. I was under the impression
That I would only be there for a few days, but three turned to a week and a week into two
And after a month of my mom not improving I went to my first foster home.

“wake up, its time for shool baby.” (I had never thought I would miss hearing those words.) It was a typical Wednesday morning and I wasn’t too thrilled about waking up to go to school for 6 hours. So after about 20 minutes of rough persuasion, I finally woke up and put my clothes on for school.

I was about two weeks into the third gade and I was under the impression I was officially grown up. It was only half way through the day (I was at lunch.) on the way back to the classroom and then I saw my councelor she had been helping me with my behavior in school she said she needed to talk.

I walked to her office not noing that the next few minutes would be a life changing experience. I walked in to find by little bro and sister and my caseworker had a worried look on her face.

Narrative Paper: Introduction

Have you ever watched someone you love slowly die? I have. It was my grand parents. My grandpa was slowly drinking himself to death. My grandma was a diabetic that was frightened to leave the house. I watched my grandpa get sicker and sicker as he fought his illness. I had watched him go in and out of the hospital. My grandpa was dying from alchohal poisoning. My grandma was on a breathing tube. Without it she couldn’t breath.
She had always yelled and strained herself. She also went in and out of the hospital. I think the only reason my grandparents fought for their life is for our family. I personally think that my grandparents knew that if they left the family would fall apart. My grandparents were the soul to the family once they were gone my uncle stopped talking to us. Although my grandpa was dying he did not show that he was weak. He got up went to work, came home, and took care of the family. My grandma did the same she got up, go garden, cook dinner, take her pill, and acted like she was not sick. They fought for their life until they could not fight any more. After my grandparents died, my uncle kicked us out of our house.
