Thank you both very much. The reactions I've gotten from classmates has been about the same.
After reading it over myself a few more times, I've spotted a couple more errors that I think I could fix. I will do that at a later time though.
Not for high school.

Personal Narratives work too. Several kids at my school have won some keys and stuff.
This is a personal narrative I wrote for English class. A lot of people have liked it a lot though, even though I only made it for a grade. So I am putting it here in case you guys would like to look at it.
It's a story about my life with Aspergers Syndrome, a high functioning form of autism...
What I find funny is that if this actually happened, half of the people in that messageboard in the article saying "I would have stopped to help" or complaining about others not helping, would not have done anything themselves.
I don't. I just thought it was kind of funny. Unprofessional or not, bursting up into tears over something like that seems like far too much of an overreaction.
