Write your own first-person narrative themed around the tension between the familiar and unfamiliar. Your narrative must be 3-5 double-spaced pages, and it must be told in first person. To ensure your story deals with themes of the familiar vs. unfamiliar, choose one of the following prompts to help build your plot: Travel memoir: Write about a trip you took that helped you see something in a new way.I flew to Hawaii and toured the Pearl Harbor site and toured all of the areas that tourists are allowed. Before now I had only studied it and watched the Movie “Pearl Harbor” In describing your travels, your narrative should emphasize how you processed the unfamiliarity of your surroundings and discuss what you gained from experiencing something new and different. A complete essay will include the following parts: Exposition: Briefly establish the background information and general context needed to understand the story that follows. Introduction of conflict: Allow your readers to see the beginning of a struggle—either internal or external— that will come to define you in this particular event that you are narrating. Rising Action: Show yourself in action and build suspense by drawing out the central conflict. Climax: Make your story come to an exciting/meaningful turning point in which your reader is left wondering, “What is he/she going to do?!” Resolution: Wrap up the loose ends of your story and draw significance from the event that you just spent so many pages describing.
