Personal Narrative Writing
Gulp! I swallowed my chicken quickly, knowing that I was going to play poker with my two cousins and my brother. In the main wooden cabin, I was excitedly waiting to play with my cousins. Then, I finished lunch. While I was waiting, I was sitting on the wooden chair. Finally, we were ready to play. When we sat down, the vivid color of the poker chips put me in a daze. I went to go get hot chocolate, smelling the lingering scent of lunch and the mouth watering sweet smell from my steaming beverage. The cards were passed out; I was feeling excited. I felt the cold wooden bench on the bottom of my legs when I sat down.
Slurping my hot chocolate, I burnt my tongue. Noah said, “I bet three chips.” Right now, I thought that I was going to win, but somehow, I lost. The next round we played, it was neck and neck. At this point, I was losing. However, I won in the end! I finished my hot chocolate. I got up to get a tan colored cookie filled with frosting. Eating the cookie, my lips puckered. It tasted terrible! It was lemon flavored, so I threw it away.
In the final round, I saw the shiny cards being passed out and the bright vivid chips being passed around. Seeing my cards, I instantly folded. Soon, I realized that my cards would have won me the round. Very unhappy, I just started to laugh. Then we went all in and the cards were being passed out. Knowing I was going to lose, I still had a good time.
