the Houston Astros vs the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium. I expect yelling, beer spilling, obnoxious girls that know nothing about baseball, but they actually don’t, so they yell stupid stuff at the TV, and I expect to see die hard baseball fans that care about this sport. I also predict that the whole bar area was going to be jam packed. Watching a baseball game surrounded by other people that know and love the sport is almost as good as it gets to see it live at a stadium. I’m sure that
The First of Many On March 15, 2005, in San Diego, California, I was excited but curious as to what the sport of baseball would be like. I jumped into our grey Honda Odyssey, seating myself in my middle-aged car seat, pretty much a booster seat. I didn’t know what to bring or what to be prepared for.

intense games ever in the sport of baseball. The Cubs have not won a world series in 108 years and the Indians are not much better with not winning a World Series game in the last 68 years. If the Cubs won this World Series, they would be cured from all of their curses that everyone has ever spoken of. If the Indians won, the city of Cleveland will explode with happiness and parties. There were over 1.6 million fans of the Indians and Cubs watching this baseball game and over 40 million television
screaming as the game is about to start. The smell of nachos and popcorn makes me hungry similarly when you pass by food places and the smell is so strong outside, you just want to stop by and eat the entire place. I look at all the people with their black and red Chihuahua’s jerseys as they enter the stadium and I can feel the El Paso spirit again like never before. Today I am getting that great feeling when you know this experience will be once in a lifetime. The brand-new baseball park, and how the people
to focus on is my first game of district baseball game. They are talking about the game in the office so that everyone is there to watch. I have played in hundreds of baseball games in my lifetime, but not one of them compared to this one. This game is the biggest one of my career. I have been thinking about this game for the last week, yet I have been imagining a game like this since I was a kid playing catch with my dad. Everyone has been talking about it and getting pumped up at school, the entire
From the 50 Essays book, the following writings To my One Love by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Feet in Smoke by John Jeremiah Sullivan, both utilize a profusion of rhetorical techniques, but most commonly used is Pathos. The theme of the two writings is, cherish every moment with your loved ones because tragedy can happen at any sudden moment.

the story once again in the case that something was missed. I performed this task not only with short stories but also scholarly journals that I had to read for the argumentative essay. When doing research, I did not just look from one point of view. I looked at both sides and the full picture in order to grasp my topic about the conservation of giant panda bears. I was taught when researching for topics it is best to use your schools’ database just do not use google, ever. It does not, nor
American Childhood", by Anne Dillard and "Once more to the lake" by E.B. White illustrates the author's childhood memories with description and imagery theme but have different personal experiences and issues. "An American Childhood", by Anne Dillard was about her old neighborhood. Dillard depicts her childhood from the age of five through high school, in 1950's America. According to Dillard, to find the source of happiness, one must resist the world to try to seal that character out and in "Once more to

defined my many. Take these writers for example, although, author of “Does Fatherhood make you Happy?”, Daniel Gilbert and author of “About Love”, Danielle Crittenden differ in their views about whether if happiness is achieved through surrendering, both authors interrupts happiness through figurative language and rhetorical appeals.
