First thing you can try is write down your memories as if you were telling them so you can get a feel for your own style of writing, the other thing that could help if read real-life stories and autobiographies from people you like to see how they have written about their past, last bit of help I can give is read books that are written in first person. Hope this helps.

Another little tip; reread what you write, and keep an eye on your grammar, it could be better.
