Short Story: Lilo's Hula School

Improved Essays
The spring sun gleamed through the window of Lilo’s hula class as she lays on the floor completely bored and uninterested in her kumu giving a lecture about practice makes perfect.With her grass skirt in hand and eyes on the window, Lilo combed her skirt and daydreamed about Stitch, her best friend and pet experiment. Lilo was brought out of this trance by the yells and giggles of her her fellow hula mates. “Lilo since you’re so glued to your skirt.... would you explain to the halau what three main verses of our new song are?” said kumu grinning. Lilo stood up and looks around shyly, and as she was about to speak the alarm clock rings. “Saved by the bell.” thought Lilo as she picked up her things off the floor and left hula practice …show more content…
Once he had found the document after hours and hours of searching, and silently cursing Klee Klee for his terrible organizing skills, he had found something completely forgotten about from years ago. Behind the boxes and covered in a thick layer of dust, was a white cylinder container with the numbers “649” engraved on it. Completely taken aback and overwhelmed with temptation, Jumba ran out of the study and into his laboratory which was almost a complete duplicate of his old lab, (minus the death rays and poisonous gases etc). He ran to the experiment pod container and input the numbers “649” into the scanner and waited a few minutes until a grid appeared above him with a digital voice. “Experiment 649”, said the pod container, “is not found on the database for it does not exist at this time.” and the grid turned black and shutdown. Jumba was beginning to become more and more puzzled and let his scientist intuition take over and thought “I don’t ever remember making this experiment, so I mustn't have done it?..... which means it’s not against the rules!” and grins evilly and puts the pod into a 9ft glass container with a hose attached to it. After situating himself with the necessary safety precautions and making a cup of coffee, Jumba pressed a few buttons and pulled a few levers and let a single drop of water fall through the hose, into the container …show more content…
“Hey, i’m 649.... but you can call be Shift.” he said while holding his hand out to Slughy who in turn smiled and shook Shift’s hand. “Nice to meet you, i’m 523 but everyone calls me Slushy.” said the ice experiment while giving Stitch and Shift snow cones on the house. “Hey why did you choose the name Shift, Lilo usually names us?” asked Stitch after taking a bite out of his snow cone and looking at his new cousin. “I’ll show you why.” said Shift after eating the entire ice cream cone and walks behind the counter to Slushy and his eyes glowed pearly white. Slushy looked at shift weirdly then shivered, regardless of his 0-below body temperature, and began to glow bright blue. Shift then took a step back and smiled as Slushy began to grow to a size of 5”2’. When the light went down you could clearly see the new Slushy. He now had pale caucasian skin and spiky white hair with the ice cream parlor hat on. His body was in the standard Baskin Robbins uniform, but the eyes were still pure black and cold. Stitch stood still and dropped his snow cone along with his jaw. Slushy looked at himself in the window reflection and stood in awe at his new body. “Wow! That’s an awesome ability, Shift fits you perfectly.” said Slushy breathing a snow cone much more fluently on multiple cones and

    The purpose of trying to figure out what was inside the black bottle was to understand the basic elements of the scientific inquiry process. We hypothesized that there was a push pin and string inside the unknown bottle—this was based on observations. In order to determine whether our hypothesis was correct or not, we massed out the unknown bottle, an empty bottle, and items that could potentially be inside the bottle. We also put items inside the empty bottle and compared the sound to the unknown bottle. The results showed that there were differences in sound between the unknown bottle and the empty bottle that had different items inside.…

    Obedience to Authority Experiment In 1963 at Yale University, Stanley Milgram held an experiment to test the relationship between obedience to authority and the personal conscience. Stanley Milgram’s obedience experiment was one of the many experiments that caused the gathering of the APA, because of its lack of ethics and an analysis of the experiment provides information that could justify for the genocide acts of World War II. The experiment included 40 male participants who drew straws which determined whether they were the learner or the experimenter. Only this was rigged so that the participant was always the experimenter instead of it being random and thinking they had a choice. They were also introduced to Milgram who was head of this experiment.…

    Eyes are the Window to the Soul Darkness flooded the sky, as the night air started to come in, over the dark gloomy campsite. The leaves and branches in the deathly, ancient, gnarly trees whispered tales of past campers. As the Jarvis family settled into their campsite, Noah noticed a mysterious mist spiralling across the fields towards the worn out gates of the cemetery. Dad called out to Noah’s older brother and cousin to help assist in setting up the camping gear. The forest guide had told them before-hand that the only clearing was near the gate of the cemetery if they wanted to camp.…

    Paragraphs in the story use the repeated pattern of having the second and third sentence rhyme with the remaining sentences being varied in length giving the book a musical quality that serves to enhance the flow of the story (Tunnell, 2015, p.23). Understatement is uses loosely at the end of the story when CJ explains that he is glad they came to the soup kitchen, this statement allows the reader to reflect on the rest of the book and the illustrations to understand why exactly he was glad to be there (Tunnell, 2015, p.24). Unexpected insights are the backbone of this story with the young CJ learning how his Nana 'can always see beauty where he never thought to look', this is the underlying motif of this story (Tunnell, 2015, p.25). Weak writing is evident in the condescension of the story (Tunnell, 2015, p.26). Some of the story is over-explained which is an indication that the author believes that young readers cannot elaborate on concepts for themselves with less information (Tunnell, 2015,…
