Personal Narrative- The Real MeI was sitting, waiting impatiently for Adam. All of a sudden, this red Toyota Tacoma flew into my driveway, screech. Hey ravisher Are you ready to go and eat? he screamed out of his fire red truck. In the mean time, I was sitting there, glaring out the window, lecture to myself like a harebrained would do, asking the stupidest questions, Is he going to like my disturbed family? What is he going to think of my annoying redneck relatives? I confide he likes fish. Am I too dressed up for dinner?W arrived at my grandmothers house around 530, at once my aunty Gaye grabs me by the arms, Hey girl Give your favorite Aunt Gaye a hug pulling me under her arm. I yanked my head away, but I already got let down by the smell of month old gym clothes. And who is this fine young boy behind you?

She rapidly ran away just after noticing Adam she is very shy. Adam and I began to laugh as Gracie ran into the wall. Lacey, my five year old cousin also Gracies big sister, runs straight person up to Adam and gives him a hug she is very sweet. Finally, after Adam met everyone but my parents, they showed up. Hey mom and dad, this is Adam. He has met the rest of the family and it smells like dinner is ready. Shall we eat?
