The sport of volleyball was created by a man named William G. Morgan of Holyoke, Massachusetts in 1895. Morgan was a physical education teacher at the YMCA and called it "mintonette". It was an indoor or outdoor pastime that had characteristics of both handball and tennis. The first rules were written down by Morgan himself. He wrote that the game called for a 6 foot 6 inch net and a court of 25x50 feet. A match composed of 9 innings and 3 serves for each team in each inning. In case of a serving error they got a second chance just like in tennis. If the ball it the net
At the beginning of seventh grade, I would always joke around that I would do wrestling, like with all the other guys. Later on that year when wrestling season was starting I decided to sign up. I didn’t know what being in wrestling was going to be like because it would be like nothing I’ve ever done before.
Lupe's first love was the Colonel who was fighting in the Revolution. Everyone in the box canyon believed that the Colonel would steal their gold mine and give it to the Americans. Lupe loved this man with all her heart and couldn't believe that anyone thought he would do such a thing to hurt the people of Mexico. And Dona Guadalupe had to tell her that her first loyalty should be to her family and it didn't revolve around the man you love. The goal of both families was to one day see their children be married and have children of their own.
In the game, you must battle trainers and defeat the elite four and champion, along with your rival while stopping evil villains from trying to destroy the world. It is practically impossible to defeat every trainer and Pokemon you encounter without losing, especially the elite four and champion since they are the strongest. This means that you are going to lose, but it’s not the end of everything. Even in real life, things won't go smoothly, as much as we hope it does, but it has helped me learn how to bounce back from such setbacks and showed me that I must keep on doing my best or I won’t be able to achieve my ultimate goal, whether it’s becoming champion and being the best Pokemon trainer, or getting my dream job and becoming a detective or F.B.I agent. If I don’t push myself to overcome these obstacles, I’ll never get anywhere. It has also taught me to be prepared for anything. The game has multiple types for both Pokemon and their moves, and even abilities can affect a battle, which means I need to strategize if I want to be able to win. If I don’t quickly think on my feet, I’ll lose the battle. This has helped me in life by teaching me how to create a strategy in order to achieve my goals, while not thinking too far ahead that I lose myself or others in the
The first way they stay determined and work hard throughout the story is they both stay determined. Lupe stays determined in one way because she is determined to win the championship and secondly, she stays determined
Wrestling and your general life might seem to not have anything in common but if you implement skills like hard work and perseverance you can learn to find success in both. Perseverance is one thing that can tie together the worlds of wrestling and life. In wrestling you have to work hard and have a thick skin, you cannot let anyone tell you what you can or cannot do because you know different. If you have a dream shoot for it and don’t stop until you make it a reality. Sometimes you might hit an impasse, but you have to keep going and break that barrier no matter how much you feel like quitting. The video states, “ If you want something, go get it. Period.” This explains that no matter how crazy your dream or goal in life is go get it and
The story ´´The Marble Champ´´ shows this because when Lupe was in the marbles competition it says everybody was easy to beat because she had practiced so hard. Furthermore, after the first time Lupe practiced it got easier every time.´´Practice, practice, practice, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze. Lupe got better...´´ This evidence shows, that after hard work things can get easier as you go along. I think Lupe realized this after she played at the marbles championship because everybody she played against was easily beat for her. And she realized this after she beat Alfonso, the neighborhood champ, she also realized that things can get easier after she practiced a few days and she got better and better. Therefore, marbles got easier for her every time she did it. She learned that her hard work payed
The most obvious reason why lupe is determined to her goals is that she is smart, because she always practice and studies that’s why she won so many awards. If I ever got a test I would totally study for a test or quiz. That’s not the only evidence why lupe is smart is that she also had a plan to get better at marbles, Lupe also listen to good advice she blocked out bad advice that would make her feel bad for herself and struggle. If I ever got bad advice I tell my mom or dad
If we think about any game in the world, weather is soccer, chess, or Mario kart, we know that we have to first learn the rules in order to play and win. One can not simply go to a field and start kicking a soccer ball to whatever direction, but he/she has to learn the rules, and to do that, determination and patience is required, but after that, one can be as good or as better than anyone else as he/she wants.
In order to completely understand Cleo and her personality, you must understand that her journey, even pre-birth, wasn’t an easy one. It was clear early on that she’s a fighter. My parents were thrilled when I was born and wanted to continue to expand our little family, but this was not as easy as they’d hoped. After my mother had three miscarriages, my chances of getting a little brother or sister were slowly diminishing. So finally, when my parents found out they were having another daughter and my mom was far enough along to warrant some confidence the baby would make it, they pulled out the name books once again. Dusting off the covers and returning to the
“When I finished the book Luo had not yet returned, there was no doubt that he had gone to visit the Little Seamstress so he could tell her this wonderful tale of Balzac’s. In my mind’s eye I could see Luo telling her the story and the Little Seamstress listening vigorously open - mouthed. As I was thinking about her I felt a sudden stab of jealousy, a bitter emotion I had never felt before and my desire to be with the Little Seamstress grew stronger. Later that day, Luo came back with leaves of a gingko tree. “We made love there, against the trunk”; those words made me feel somewhat sick in the heart, I didn’t even know that was possible. I strained to imagine it but words failed me... Why does Luo always get everything? He even said himself
4. When Lupe decides to give-in to the harassment of Don Elias, does she have any other options? Was there anyone to help her?
I really love reading your interpretation of El Duende. The part where you stated "The Duende is not inherently good or evil. It is more of a motivator.", I found it to be very true! I think every artist or performer struggles with their own insecurities in their works, so the Duende is really there to push them to excel beyond the physical perfection of their piece. The rest of your interpretation was very true to what Lorca was trying to convey, I believe. Also, the example about Maggie Ziegler is wonderful. I watched the music video once or twice before and I have always felt this mysterious overwhelming emotion toward her performance but I could never been able to figure out what it was. Now we know it is called the Duende. Thank you
The first reason Lupe is determined is because she works hard.For example in the story Lupe works hard by practicing for three hours straight. This shows that Lupe works hard by practicing for long periods of time and setting aside school work to practice and do her best. This shows Lupe works hard and does her best because she really wants to win and be good at some kind of sport or activity. This supports my claim that Lupe is determined. Another example is Lupe beat her brother when they played their own game. This shows that Lupe has been working extremely hard because the story
