Personal Narrative

        The narrative that I am currently working on is called " Confidence on the Court". The story consists of a basketball game that I played in during the 7th grade. In this narrative I am trying to show how the game was like as well as what hitting the winning free throw felt like. I wanted to tell this story because it is an interesting story as well as having some significance.
       When I began writing this paper I felt like I needed to do a better job telling this through my point of view instead of just doing an overview of the game.  As I went along I realized I needed to describe more details. I also realized I needed to work on my significance. It was very hard to not make this into a classic sports victory story but instead a personal narrative. The biggest challenge so far has been to make the significance more personal to me instead of cliche. This essay has been very interesting but also challenging at the same time.
