Personal Narrative: Type A Personality

I was very intrigued with how well this self-assessment depicted my personality. One thing that I found surprising was that I have a Type A personality. I was not familiar with Type-A personality prior to taking this assessment. In my personal life, I am constantly trying to achieve many different tasks in a short period of time. For example, in the month of August I am taking two summer courses at Liberty University, working full time, involved in the United Way 2015 Campaign, working a few hours of overtime per week, involved at my church, planning a wedding, and just purchased a new home. If I am not working towards achieving something, I feel like I am wasting time. Type-A personality describes a person that is constantly trying to achieve

    Multidimensional Coping Inventory Personality Analysis

    I always have to be working toward something and if I don't I feel like I have no purpose and it makes me anxious. Furthermore, I have always aimed to work hard and could never be one of those people to just “go with the flow”, frankly those people worry me sometimes. All these examples are very type A, and contrast to the Type B persons who are usually more easy going and take their time with…

    Personal Narrative: The Model T

    The Model T shook America. A rattling beast compiled of steel, glass, and the American Dream, this pioneer vehicle paved the way for car production as we know it. We all start out as that Model T, made of the same materials, but working towards individuality. As we grow, our car remodels; the Model T turns into the Model A, and before we know it, we’re a Ford Flex zooming along the interstate. Though exteriors evolve, technology improves, and destinations change, all cars maintain a common aspect: our engine.…

    Personal Narrative: My Strengths

    A weakness that I have is that I do not know how to say no to individuals that ask me for help since I love to help people. It is important that I learn to say no when helping others gets in the way of me accomplishing my tasks. It is important that I do both, but not when I run the risk of not meeting my deadlines and me staying late hours after work to get my work done. It has not been an easy task saying no, but I am learning to be okay with saying no because it is important that it does not interfere with my responsibilities.…

    Personal Narrative: Who Am I

    Who am I? This question has been on my mind lately. Just to think about it, brings me feelings of a doubt and uneasiness. Many times I was told that it is impossible to figure out what is behind my defiant and troublesome face. Also I had a chance to hear that same face is like the mask, hiding the real me beneath of it.…

    Personal Narrative: Becoming The Perfect Stereotypes

    I feel as if i have been running for forever, but every day the past always catches up to me, to ruin the present, to ruin the future. I’m trying so hard to escape the mistakes I've made but its like they have me locked up in shackles and the key is forgiveness, which in this town in very scarce. The constant glares from my family make me feel even more worthless than dirt. Each dirty stare sends me deeper into this state of loneliness. Why didn't i grow up like everyday else, I should be obsessed with pop music, not heavy metal.…

    Type B1 Test

    I am a punctual person, preferring to be on time and meet deadlines, I do not obsess over time and can take time off for leisurely pursuits without feeling overwhelming guilt. With this, it may mean a tendency to procrastinate, and this tends to shorten the timelines needed to get goals/assignments complete, causing stress and anxiety. I find myself leaning more towards type A when it comes to accomplishments, I like to show off my achievements and am proud of my efforts. Test 2: What motivates you?…

    Personal Narrative: The Test

    The Test ( 7)As my Spanish teacher went around handing back our tests my heart was racing so fast I could almost hear it thump-thump...thump-thump. The room was silent, but exploding with nerves from my classmates eager to know what grade they received. At least I knew that my grade had to be better than my last test, and I could only go up from here. I just remembered the feeling of being overcome with disappointment when I received my last test and I never want to feel like that again. Since Spanish was definitely one of my more challenging classes, I had to study at least twice as much as the other kids in my class and much more frequently.…

    Personal Narrative Analysis

    I lacked simple confidence, I would sit in the back of the classroom and not say a word. I figured if they can’t hear me, then I wouldn’t exist to no one. There was only one place where I felt more confidence about who I was, the pool was my, how you would say comfort place. I was able to swim to the very bottom and stay there for countless minutes thinking about my life, just enjoying the water on my skin and around me. Sometimes I would wish that I could just stay in the water forever and not have to attend class.…

    Personal Narrative-Self-Analysis

    When I first began, I was very nervous. Nervous at both the dim prospects of my grade, and of my writing skills. In previous classes, my writing would often come back to me attached to a rubric marked with notes like “Needs improvement”, “Unclear”, or one of my personal favorites “Have you though about taking an english class?”. For most of my academic life, I always wondered if one day I would become a good writer, and for some time I thought that day would never come. That is, until I began English 131.…
