The narrative that I want to use for this project is my trip to Washington State where I hiked 50 miles in a week and a half. On the trip, I had to spend twenty-four hours by myself and I never felt more accomplished and scared in my entire life.
This story matters to me because I love hiking. It is something that I could do and just enjoy the outdoors. On this trip particular, I didn’t only hike, but I canoed, too. Overall, I traveled 75 miles throughout two weeks. I went on this trip with Outward Bound and it has changed my life completely. I feel like I matured and know more about life. I have a better insight into what I know now.
The purpose of the narrative will be to set a mood. I want to convey a sense of accomplishment. I will include a time when I was really scared about a giant bird that was eating food right next to my tent. Completing 75 miles in two weeks is definitely something that is worthy to feel accomplished about.
The audience of this paper will be for my grandchildren. I want to set up the narrative in a journal form and write down exactly what happened over the twenty-four hours when I was by myself reflecting on the trip and on life in general.
As I said in class, this is great. Having an audience like your grandchildren in mind is a good idea. I think the purpose of this story will sort of speak for itself too, without you being overt about any sort of life lesson. Approved.
