Speech : The Funny Bone Of Our Family

The last lesson from Morrie is teaching Mitch to say goodbye. Morrie knows death is upon him and he needs to tell his loved one goodbye sooner or later. He knows it is going to be hard but he has to do it. “This...is how we say...goodbye… love...you”(Albom 185). Saying goodbye to a loved one is very hard to do especially knowing that they won’t make it much longer. This past year my great grandmother passed away due to her heath. My family knew it wasn’t going to be long until she passed away. I went to visit her in Hospice for the first and last time in March. I sat next to her as she laid still, not saying a word or really moving much. I talked to her even though she didn’t say anything back and I rubbed her and gently in mine. I sat there for almost two and a half hours just rubbing her hand and talking to her. Then it had come time to when I needed to go home. I had to say goodbye, It was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done as with my other family members who have passed. I knew it was going to be hard, I started to get a scratchy throat and my eyes started to tear up as a started to walk out the door. I felt like I was leaving part of my life behind and I was failing her.

I'm so excited for you! It's your birthday! Yay! I wanted to surprise you a box of presents to put a big smile on your face and to show my appreciation for you and all you do. You're a terrific friend and a constant source of encouragement-not only to me-but to everyone you know! You bring so much joy to others, and you know how to make people smile and laugh. When you throw a party, you seek to make sure the needs of everyone are met and you'll plan little details to make to make sure everyone's having a good time. From creating your own made up game on New Year's Eve, to making Papa Murphy's pizza and some healthy snacks to go along with it, you put the cherry on top of the cake called hospitality. I've seen you grow so

I would first like to thank the fraternity of Delta Kappa Epsilon for this lovely nomination, I stand here today looking at the most handsome, funny, genuine group guys that I have very known from my 19 years of living on this world. Never in my life did in my younger years I’d think I would be joining and sorority and on top of that running to be a sweetheart to one of the jolliest and good fraternities on this ASU campus. When I told my mom during the summer I was considering running for sweetheart her response was “I’m happy for you, but sad at the same time, because that means you slept with most of all of those boys.” You can tell I was first in Greek life within my family knowing she really had no idea what a sweetheart actually was.

Good evening. I would like to begin by welcoming each and every one of you to this joyous and stressful occasion.

I just wanted to shoot you an email regarding any possibility of dropping or improving upon the second Mockingbird quiz we took last week. I know this is probably a longshot, and I definitely deserve the grade I received. However, I've put an effort forward to improve upon my reading habits and attain a better grasp of the novel, and would therefore appreciate a chance to improve or remove a less than acceptable grade. However, if this cannot happen, I understand.

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - I am the groom's father, Ken, and I have the great privilege of being best man. I have recently found out there are two reasons why J W asked me to do this job. 1) To make him look younger and slimmer in the photos. 2) Because he didn't want to burden any of his friends with the terrible prospect of having to give this speech.

This experience is traumatizing to the child. This shows that the boy is not mature enough to assess the situation at hand. The wounds that these people bore were also hard for the child to imagine. " then turned upon him a face that lacked a lower jaw--from the upper teeth to the throat was a great red gap fringed with hanging shreds of flesh and splinters of bone"(Bierce). Having these kinds of experiences gives the child some knowledge of what "game" he has actually been playing.

Imagine a place where everyone is accepted for who they are. A place where kids can discover their true calling and begin to pursue it. A place where the whole community is united in a bond of friendship and trust. No, this place is not heaven, it is South Pointe. I can’t believe that three years have gone by so fast. Three years of learning how to deal with so many classes. Three years of meeting so many great teachers that changed my way of thinking. Three years of making new friends and discoveries that have made my time here at South Pointe so memorable. Here, at South Pointe, I evolved not only academically, but also socially and emotionally. It helped me learn that it’s never too early to find out what your true passion or career goal

I hope someone can please assist with an issue regarding Cameron Thomas. Cameron currently attends Thurgood Marshall. Last year Cameron was place in ROTC and a work program provided by the school life skills class. I started receiving emails that Cameron was marked absent from 6th period class Chief Battle. I talked and emailed several staff at Marshall regarding this issue because, I knew Cameron Thomas was in school those days. I stated to his teacher, “if this is going to cause and problem with his attendance please remove Cameron from the work program”. Only to be told that they were working on it. The emails stopped coming and I thought the situation was taken care of.

Oh, Cousin, how I miss you so. I have so much to share with you. I thought we had a tough life in Ireland, but now we are working even harder for a better life in America. Last month, we finally arrived in NY and had to make it through a place called Ellis Island to get approval to live in the United States of America. You know how hard Mom and Dad worked on the farm in Ireland. Now, they are working even harder with less pay. The sadness that Mom and Dad faced in Ireland when the potato crop failed last year was very rough. We had to move here because we would have starved to death without our crops. Mom and Dad thought coming to America would bring new opportunities to prosper.

Mr. Speaker, Mr. Vice President, Members of Congress: It is a great privilege to be here to outline a new budget and a new approach for governing our great country.

I am following up on our conversation regarding the Princeton Family Medicine’ s after hours calls. Do you have the specifics for transferring the lines to the operator in Madisonville? Also, is it a long distance call from Princeton to Madisonville? Or are we covered because we are on the same phone system?

Good Morning, I'm Denisse, Francisco Vega mother, just to let you know that he and 5 others kids missed his bus this morning because the bus services change the pickup stop and the kids did not know.
