Act 5, Scene 1: The Show Enter Death Cult Little League, not wearing any particular uniform. The crowd cheers them on as they make their way to the stage. The entire team of Death Cult Little League members face us, Taryn steps forward and announces, “Hello! We are Death Cult Little League. For our next performance, we need you guys to shout out some words for us. Hmm… what’s the worst pie topping?” Everyone in the audience starts yelling random words. “Worms!” “Dirt!” “Salsa!” “Rice!” The words fly around the auditorium until finally the group decides. “Rice! That sounds good. We are going to go with rice!” And suddenly the simple word “rice” turns into a combination of drag queens, Mayan calendars, and science projects gone wrong. DCLL
again, turns a simple word such as “rice” into something beyond the average person’s imagination. Having observed this group for hours, DCLL clearly has a knack for that, spinning something completely normal into something out of the ordinary. As we saw in every practice and show, each team member never fails to incorporate their own style, combining their relatively normal interests to create a truly unique team. In a way, we were right. Some member were a bit quirky, some were a bit loud, and some were antisocial, but no two members were homogeneous, and in that way we were wrong. The lights turned on, and the now laughing audience began clapping. As the auditorium gradually became quieter, the performance concluded, “We are Death Cult Little League, but individually we are...” Unique. Spontaneous. Accepting, I think to myself as Nandini and I finish watching Death Cult Little League’s perform for our last time.
The warm summer evening. The butterflies in the stomach. The determination and desire to win. This is a moment that many young men experience - Little League Baseball. But, unfortunately, schools lacking funding are looking to cut costs by getting rid of youth sports. That is when Dick’s Sporting Goods, a company with resources to bring attention to this problem, steps up to bat. Their message is effective through the emotional and ethical tie it creates in the audience through the story of a young man who overcomes tragedy through succeeding on the baseball diamond. Relying heavily on pathos and ethos, this message touches the hearts of the audience, calling them to step up as well.
when I was ten years old I lost my grandpa, it was a very bad experience for me but it made me stronger. I remember when he taught me how to catch a baseball, ride a bike, mow the lawn and a lot of other things that I will forever cherish in my heart. the memory I will never forget though is when he taught me everything I needed to know about baseball. we would always go outside together and he would do certain agilities with me to build my stamina, teach me how to catch a pop-fly and he would work on pitching with me which is actually one of my main position that I play today. baseball was a big part of my grandpas life and he always wanted me to play In the major leagues. once he passed away my motives for playing in the major leagues increased.
I also don't own the idea, it was requested to me by the wonderful Amanda. Thank you so much! I hope I did this idea justice.
At the same time: Snap-Whoosh-Growl-Snap-Whoosh-Growl! Return with a fierceness, causing the rest of the men to separate into two groups with some moving to the left in search of the origin of the beastly sounds and the others moving to the right, combining their numbers with those searching for their missing brethren, while Gottlieb stays behind.
School was coming to an end and I thought about how Scout’s teacher didn't want her to read. I couldn't stop reading I enjoyed it too much and so did scout, I wondered if I would have reacted the same way scout did. One day after coming home from school, I saw scout with a Big stash of gum. After she told me how she got it, I started thinking the worst since I am her older Brother. I knew to scout was stubborn and wasn't going to get rid of it so I threaten her by telling her that I would tell Cal which is a fight scout wasn't up to fight. Why would there be gum in a tree and why was it out of all places in the Radley tree? We waited until what was forever for school to be over and for Dill to come. After all Dill had become a close friend
A travel of over 3000 miles for some, a 210 mile drive for me, just to arrive at the biggest gathering of over 1,500 twelve year olds; all just to play baseball. The only place that would be suitable for such an event is Cooperstown Dream Parks, every baseball players heaven. Cars have come to Cooperstown from everywhere for this week long tournament. I met children my age from all over the United states. I became friends with kids from Ohio, Illinois, California, I even met a player from Puerto Rico who barely spoke any english. The windows of everyone 's car decorated with the names and numbers of teams and players. Excited baseball teams spill from their Barracks and hustle toward the already crowded seating area. Festive music played over
The air is thick with smoke and people are running amok-- their screams echoing in my ears. I’m looking through the cracks of the trees, but a figure has appeared and seated himself in front of my view. Their face isn’t visible, but I can assume they’re not here to assist these helpless people; they’re devising a plan to harm them like a lion preying on zebras.
This scene takes place at the end of the conversation between Ellebry, Eric, and Dale. It would occur in this part of the story because this is one of the few times that Eric sees Dale not counting flashbacks. While Eric and Ellebry are there Eric asks Dale a personal question.
My left foot was on the ground and my right foot was on the side of a stranger’s car, while I waited for Draven to open his car.
When I stepped out of the car for Cross Country Camp, I couldn't tell if I actually wanted to be there. I had been looking forward to this event for months, but part of me still wanted to hop back in my van and go home. At home there wasn't anything to prove, and I didn't feel like people were watching me everywhere I went.
As I sat in the car nervous as always I thought to myself “today's the day today you become a boy scout. Finally my dad broke the silence and said “you excited” I replied “yeah” after awhile of driving we arrived at the place where the ceremony was happening. I felt extremely anxious I kept trying to calm myself down but it did not work. After a while I calmed down and they eventually served us food it was great.and the we did skits and songs it was basically a huge party with skits,singing,and,dancing. after that they called us up by patrol which is a group of people also there were three different patrols so it took a little bit to get to me and they finally got to me, I felt so nervous, but at the same time proud of myself.i walked up to

“Oh, these old bones can’t take much more of this,” grumbled Millan Prink, as he rolled out of bed onto unsteady feet. “It’s bad enough that dear Laura left me eight years ago, bless her soul, but now I have to do all the work around here.” With a big sigh and a nod to the dreamcatcher above his bed, he went outside to his work.
How come people judge you on how you act or who you hang out with? It was at school when it happened, Jack and Conner always called me Gay. I don’t know why they would just call someone that. They had to have known it ways going to bother me, i guess that’s why they did it.
...e greatest prank in our school’s history. And she stopped Mrs. DeCostia from stealing from Mrs. Redrik” Then he took my hand and led me down the hall, past all of my friends, to the stairs. I stopped. “What was that for?” “I was just giving credit where credit was due.” He slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out a rather large ring. “You knew the whole time?!?” “Yeah when we and Matt moved the desk it fell out and I picked it up, I was waiting to give it back until DeCostia got busted.” “Oh my god…” “Anyway, what are we doing tonight? Movies, ice-cream, maybe some pizza?” “We’re hanging out tonight?” “Yeah I have to hang out with my girlfriend to celebrate the undermining of our psycho home wrecking teacher.” “Your girlfriend?” “Yeah...” He said into my hair as he put his hands around my waist and pulled me closer to him “Who else would I hang with tonight?”
