Pushing the Limits :: Personal Narrative Papers

disturb-up-and-go the Limits Late one Friday night in the fall of 1995, while I was hanging out with the girls, my laughter stopped short as jennet Williams large grandfather clock struck one time loud throughout the old farmhouse. Our laughter and fun came to a halt. My parents cur hardly a(prenominal) as sanitary as my school drivers permit curfew had long expired. Curfew would not have been an issue that night because most fifteen-year-olds would have been at dental p slowly in bed. Because of my right to drive, my pride in being one of the few freshmen with their school permit came with its own benefits as well as consequences. The prefer to drive to school and back was a privilege easily interpreted advantage of. One of my rule breaking attempts was driving home from jennets house at 100 in the morning. The plan to get home quickly almost backfired and I was almost stuck in a sticky situation, literally I raced around Jennys clutter house looking for my larg e wood carved key chain. I knew I needed to make fast tracks before the clock give worked their way any farther. I found my keys at last and I was racing to my car.

I charged away in my lightweight, manual, gray Chevy Spectrum that I liked to call Junior. While speeding along to Tom petit larcenys, You Wreck Me Baby, I had not noticed the shower of mud go from my cardboard-looking hub capped wheels. The thought crossed my mind to turn back, but the tires had already begun to spin hopelessly like a hamsters wheel. I effected that turning back towards a possible cop was not an option. This road was not about to let me maneuver a three-point-turn-about either.
