 * Assignment**: Your assignment is to write a narrative about a formative moment in your life that somehow defined who you are (the event changed you or you learned about an important idea). You must include several paragraphs that reflect on how you changed, what did you learned, and WHY is it significant.

Directions: Fill in the information below as completely as possible.

Your purpose is to explain, from your POV, a moment in your life that somehow defined who you are. Be as specific as possible. Focus in on one or two main events that demonstrate the change (or idea learned). What is your specific purpose in this narrative - what change are you demonstrating (or idea learned)?
 * Purpose:**

My peers and Mr.Stephens.
 * Audience:**

I learned how to make friends and open my heart to new people.
 * Thesis:**

Looks like: Plain and normal school girl. Age: 13 (Korean Age) Motivation / Objective: I want to meet new friends.
 * Description of Character** (this is you)

Where does the narrative take place?: Korean elementary school. When does the narrative take place?: 2006, start of the new grade.
 * Setting:**

In chronological order, list the main events of the story / narrative. **Hint:** focus your narrative on the key moment where the change occurred. - Start of 6th grade 1st semester. - Chattering with my best friend Eunsang. - One girl(Sojung) comes to me to talk but I was too shy to talk back because it was the first time to see her. - Lunch time, Sojung and her friend Joeun are standing right next to me but I cannot say anything. - I see Sojung playing with her friends and want to join her but I just stay with my old friends. - PE class after lunch, teacher randomly chooses partners so I'm with Sojung. - Even though I'm still shy, Sojung talks to me over and over during PE to get closer. - Sojung tells me that she thought I don't like her and we laugh together. - Because of Sojung, I became more talkative to other classmates who I don't know well. - End of the 6th grade, I'm playing with a huge group of girls and boys, laughing and chattering.
 * Plot:**

My major problem was that I was too shy. Even though I'm very talkative with my old friends, I couldn't even answer well when a new friend talks to me first.
 * Conflict:**

- When Sojung first talks to me. - During PE class, Sojung and I are talking to each other.
 * Dialogue:**

Noisy classroom during recess and lunch time.
 * Sensory Details:**

My personality changed because of the new friend, Sojung. I learned how to be friends with new people and how to open my heart to them. I became more sociable, friendly and made more friends than before. This was a significant event because friendship is one of the important things during my school life.
