    Middle shot were seen in this movie for example, when the professor was walking up towards the bowl of water explaining to his students that “he would rather be remembered for his small contributions to science, not to his relationship with a famous cuko cuko” while washing his hands in the bowl.

    Jimmy was up (teammate) and he struck out on a bad call by the umpire. We were batting in the bottom of the 7th inning and we felt we could come back and win, because our best hitters were up. That thought ended when the umpires ended the game because they heard thunder and it started to lightly sprinkle. They also didn’t wait because they didn’t want to be playing until 10:00. I started to get tears in my eye, but my coaches said we did not win or lose, because it was never completed.…

    I feel like I really need to Hamilton the most because he was determined to follow his dream. He went out of his way every time and said, “Don’t throw away your shot”. When I first heard that quote I felt amazed because that is true, sometimes we take a sometimes we take for granted our shot and we mess up. As listening to Hamilton you can tell that he made mistakes and I know I have to but just listening to him he learned that a new shot can come around and you should take it because you know you can make a difference if you just believe. The one thing I had admired about him was this other quote, “I may not live to see to see our glory, but I will gladly join the fight" what's to me I find relatable.…

    So we prayed and the game started and we played nervously. My captain, Melissa dribbled down the court, looked to pass, and took the shot but missed it. Michelle also missed her fast-break lay up, and I missed my free throw. At the end of Quarter 2, it was like playing football because the scoreboard only shows 2 for Ipeka Tomang (my school) and 3 for Yadika. That indicates how much we are struggling the whole quarter never really score but a constant battle between getting and loosing the ball.…
