How are you? I have been doing great! Just being busy around Towson’s campus as usual. I actually just came back from my class’s bake sale and pie a professor event that I told you about a couple weeks ago. We successfully raised about $130 today for the refugee children’s education in Darfur, Sudan! We will still continue to raise more money on Wednesday and will be doing our pie a professor event on Wednesday or next Monday. It’s also midterm month here at Towson. I took my Native American History midterm last Thursday. I will be receiving my grade back tomorrow hopefully. The midterm was okay and my classmates and I had some study groups in the library so it wasn’t that bad. I have another midterm for my other history class (WWI) on Thursday. …show more content…

For my birthday, my friend, Taylor and I went to the National Harbor for a while. I also came home for my friend Taylor’s birthday (our birthdays are exactly a week apart). For her birthday last weekend, we went to her uncle’s restaurant in Washington D.C. called Jack Rose and went on a historical ghost tour around the park near the White House. The tour was very interesting and was so much fun. The last time I saw you I mentioned that I was going to take the Praxis writing test. I just got my scores back last weekend and unfortunately I did not pass again. I am planning on rescheduling to take the Praxis writing test again in a couple weeks. I am hoping to get some help from the writing center on campus. But don’t worry I am not giving up and I will continue to take the test until I pass. I am not a quitter! I hope you are doing well! I hope to visit you again sometime

I comprehended what she was saying, however I didn't really understand until I was browsing through some pictures on the internet using a key phrase I had heard her say so many times; The Trail of Tears. A particular image caught my eye and as I looked at it, the flat words she had said to me began to come to life. Each word with it's own shape and rhythm began to come alive and together poured out to me a beautiful

Personal Narrative: My Native American Tribe

283 Words | 2 Pages

If my Native American tribe was to choose a side between the French and the English, I would pick the French. Firstly, the French have a small population in America.

Also, this means that they won 't take up as much land in America as the English do.

Personal Narrative: My Growing Up Indian

195 Words | 1 Pages

We are often told that it’s ok to be different. My younger version would definitely agree. Growing up Indian, I had the benefit of teachers repeating instructions a bit louder and slower.

My parents never had to worry about driving me to sleepovers, though I was seemingly friends with everyone in school.

Personal Narrative: An Indigenous Tribe

761 Words | 4 Pages

To begin with, I choose this indigenous tribe because I don’t know nothing about Alaska and I have curiosity about the people who lived there and may be the people who still live there.

This is one of the great difficulties that we find today in order to live there, despite this, Alaska has a population of around 20,000 people. Nowadays we have many facilities that help us adapt to different climates, we have devices and machines that make life easier, as is the case of the snowmobile to go from one place to another or the radiators to warm us when we are cold.
