Ring! Ring! Ring! I woke up startled. " Who is calling me at 5:30 in the morning," I mumbled . Ring! Ring! Ring! "Hello, this is Walt...huh? At 7:30 tomorrow morning, okay sir. Thank you very much!" I turned and began to shake Lillian. "Lillian!" I exclaimed, " Universal Studio wants to talk to me about Oswald." Lillian looked at me confused. "What about Oswald?" Lillian said as she got up from the bed rubbing her eyes. "Universal Studios want to make a deal with me. They think Oswald is a big hit. They want to work with me!" I explained. "Aren't you fine with Disney Brothers Studio?" she looked at me with concern. " Honey this is the big leagues now. Don't you want the best for me?" I asked.ll She took a deep breath. I knew I was about to be lectured, but she …show more content…
I told you this plan was to shady, and did you listen nope," she ranted. I hated when Lillian cuts me off without me finishing. "Are you finished?" I muttered. " Are you done interrupting me," she continued. She said many curse words at me, that I couldn't recall. " Honey are you finished," I repeated. She turned at me and looked at me with a grim expression but she was silent. " Ok, all though I gave Oswald's rights to Universal Studios, Ub and I came up with a better solution. We made a different character name Mortimer instead of a bunny he is a mouse!" She seemed to smile I little " Can you change the name to Mickey it sounds more appropriate," she insisted. " I agree with her Mickey does sound more appropriate," Ub added. " Mickey it is!" I praised. " Now are we going to go out and eat?" Ub groaned. Lillian face turned serious again. " I thought you weren't hungry, I knew you never liked my cooking." " What, pssh, I love your cooking honey. Your the best chef a husband could have!" I
“Heading to the NFL, Michigan’s Jake Butt Says College Players Should Be Paid” exemplifies the reasons why college athletes should be compensated for their hard work. As explained by Jake Butt, “I should be the example of why college athletes should be getting paid in college or why I can't use my name to benefit off my likeness in college”(Butt). This college athlete’s chance of becoming a NFL player was ruined all because of an injury to his ACL. Though he may have diminished his career, the University of Michigan still receives payment based off of his name. The university gains money from their players, hurt or not. The revenue that the college/coaches receive come from the fans. This money is sometimes never given to the players that were
"I did not know you would be coming!" Sophia said. Her voice was only loud enough to
“Yeah, but what caused the change of heart on the name thing?” he curiously asked.
The Human Journey Seminars provides students with a historical understanding of the basis of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition. The course goes into depth, conveying the roots of Catholicism between thinkers, writers, artists, while portraying the life they had lived. Aside from this, the main point of each learning assignment is to generate questions about God, humanity, society and nature. The course was able to do this through readings from Plato, Aristotle, Genesis, Exodus, Matthew, Augustine, Aquinas, and Dante. These texts represented the four fundamental claims of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition; the most important being the idea of God’s presence in the world being mediated through nature and reality.
Mianite had been talking for weeks about someone new arriving, but he wouldn’t tell us who. Tucker, Sonja, and I had taken turns waiting for the newcomer; and I had been stuck with the night shifts.
“I feel excited, mostly, but I’m nervous about the changes. I am not sure you’ll be pleased with one of my suggestions.”
“Bridge To Terabithia 2” is an example of fan fiction because it features many significant differences of Bridge To Terabithia, while still maintaining characters and some parts of the plot from the book. A key similarity between the fan fiction and book is tone. The tone is very depressing and sad:”Both Bill and Judy grew concerned when their normally active, vibrant, and quite talkative daughter became withdrawn and quiet”(5). This quote is stated while the Burke’s were on their way to the hospital Jess was being treated at. Jess is Leslie’s best friend, and after she heard about him she was very mournful and sorrowful. Also, Leslie felt that the hospital had a “Prison atmosphere to it”(5), for it seemed cold and lifeless. When Jess was told
Ms. Heyerdahl chuckled. "That you are. Well, come on in. I'll let Phoebe know you're here an-"
"I don't cook often, but I thought it would be enjoyable just the two of us before I go back out on the oil rig for mah next shift."
“It doesn’t look to me like you were doing that,” Linda said defensively. She looked serious and Lily bought the lie.
“Yes, I can cook, Wulfric, thanks for asking!” she said and poured soup into a large wooden bowl.
"Do better than reading baby girl. How about you come with me?" I glared at her with a challenging look.
“Fifty Shades of Grey” by E.L. James, “Gabriel Trilogy” by Sylvain Reynard, and “After” by Anna Todd, are books that sold millions of copies all over the world. What do they all have in common? They were all once fanfictions. But, these are just some of the vast amount of books that were originally fanfiction. Because of these books, fanfiction has been getting a lot of attention over the last year. If you didn’t know what fanfiction was before, there is no way you could ignore it now. Some people may say that it’s just a childish trend that obsessed teens have just started doing. Or people may praise it, and say it’s the start of a new era. But, let me tell you, fanfiction has been around for a very long time. It’s hard to pinpoint where
Americans need to stand up and take action. We should keep the death penalty in all our states. The death penalty has been used for centuries and made people scared of committing terrible crimes because it wasn’t just used every now and then it was used often, but now it isn’t used often enough so less people are scared of committing a crime. Although the death penalty doesn’t make people scared to commit a crime now-a-days and doesn’t prevent a crime from happening the first time it will prevent the criminal from committing the crime again, so America should continue to enforce the death penalty and more often.
During the summer I could do a five-week writing workshop on Harry Potter fan fiction. The first week we would start by discussing how to write fan fiction. I would start by telling them the needed to read the seven books in the Harry Potter series. I would also have them read up on the fictional world. This would include fan sites and other books that support the main Harry Potter series. Finally, I would explain to them that there is good fan fiction and bad fan fiction. I would allow them the week to explore the fictional world and read fan fiction. They would need to choose how much they read of the Harry Potter series that week. Some people have more time than others over the summer to read.
