Autobiographical Narrative

Often in our lives, things happen to us that change us for either the better or the worse. When things happen and they change us for the better we can make our lives great but if something happens for the worse it can cause us to change in a way that our lives go wrong. Once something goes wrong, there’s always a way to fix what we have witnessed. If you lose a family member and it causes you to fall down in life and you start to drink and do drugs to get rid of the pain.

I´d never want my kids to see what I 've seen. It was my freshman year of high school. Everything was perfect to me, I had the cutest boyfriend at the time and would never expect things to go bad. One day I get home from school and my mom had made the choice that we are moving away from my step dad. I mostly remember standing outside yelling at my step dad saying it was all his fault all of this was happening. One of his sons tried to step in and I pushed him away. I was defending my mom no matter what was going on. For three months we lived in another place. At night I could hear my mom talking to my step dad on the phone.

Once a person is negative in my life and towards me I never look at them the same. Needless to say he will never be a father figure to me until the

Well my mom and my father started arguing and my mom started crying which is probably the biggest thing that could get me from being okay to totally anger and upset within a second.

He obviously did not like the fact I yelled at him so we started arguing. I finally then had enough after we argued for so long and told him how I have actually been feeling.
