Personal Narrative

  • I was born.

    I was born.
    I was born on April 5, 1980 in Denver, CO. My dad was in the Air force at the time, so the hospital was a military medical center. I don't remember anything about Colorado because we were only there for the first two weeks of my life. :)
  • My sister is born.

    My sister is born.
    I remember asking my parents if I could have a baby brother or sister because I was an only child and didn't want my children to grow up without any aunts or uncles. I was ten. I have never really seen my sister as a little sister in the traditional sense....I have always felt more like a parent than a big brother.
  • I learned to play guitar.

    I learned to play guitar.
    I learned how to play chords on an old guitar my mom had. She taught me the basics and then I took lessons. Playing guitar has been the best thing I have ever done with my free time. I don't know what I would do without it.
  • I learned to dirve.

    I learned to dirve.
    I learned to drive in my parents' old 1992 Dodge Caravan. I took my driver's license several months after my 16th birthday and got a 77% on it. I misunderstood what the examiner meant by "park like I was getting out for the day" and left the car in drive.
