Laughter

I refused to say a word to Polo as we walked down the hall again with him slightly in the lead this time. Once we got to the waiting area, which was just some chairs lined up against a wall, I just plopped down in a chair. I groaned as I ran my rans over my face. “You have some ball if can stand up to Brackish like that,” Polo commented setting with one chair between us. “I just want one of the last living pures to be free, is that too much to ask for,” I said to him but mostly to myself. “What…

For the first time, he heard something that he knew to be music. He heard people singing. He saw lights glowing inside and outside of the dwelling. Jonas saw somebody put on a coat and a hat and walk outside. The tall man walked towards Jonas and Gabe with a worried look. He picked up Gabe without hesitation and said to Jonas “Why were you gone so long Jonas, you said you were gonna play with Gabe outside for a few minutes.” Jonas looked at him confused. “How do you know my name?” Jonas asked…

"Reset!" Mr. Z shouted through the obnoxious megaphone. Our mouths dry and salty, the entire band hurried lazily to their last set hoping not to be singled out. I spun around and pushed my foot forward when bam! I smashed right into a tuba player. "Sorry," I grumbled in a not so sorry tone. My head ached slightly before the incident, so now it throbbed. "No, don't worry about it. I wasn't looking where I was going." These run-ins caused an angry annoyance throughout the group. The marching band…

Comedian Kevin Yee I have always been a big comedy fan. I love laughing and love it when people make me laugh. I have always been told that I am always smiling for no reason, so when I heard that a comedian was going to perform I knew I couldn’t miss it. On Tuesday night at George’s, comedian Kevin Yee performed, however I have never seen a comedian performance that was mainly based on songs. He did talk but mostly performed songs throughout the show. There was about a medium size crowd that…

separated from the group and ended up finding a running waterfall that “sparkled like the diamond on her finger”. He reminisced about the time him and Kim stayed up all night, sharing embarrassing stories and waking the whole camp up from their howling laughter. She was not the rebound everyone thought her out to be: she was his everything. I nodded slowly, pretending I am only hearing this story for the first time. Fossie’s memories were alive and breathing in the heart of this little…

First Plane Trip The first time I went on an airplane, was when I was twelve. My family was traveling to California for the first time, to visit the family on my father’s side. I remember being nervous, but, extremely excited at the same time. It was a long trip, about six hours give or take, and my family was not prepared one bit. Yet with all the chaotic things that happened, it was still a memorable and fun experience. Of course for the first time on a plane, you’re going to think the…

when everyone started to laugh at me. With my face all red like a tomato, I just laid my head down in shame just hoping this day well just come to an end soon. Afterwards they stopped laughing, I lifted me head up from the shame but I kept hearing laughter and it was coming the group of guys in my group. I didn’t really think non of…

Thomas will run out of fuel in the middle of the desert in New Mexico, transporting cargo Tennessee and there is no nearby station and help will come in 24 hours. In a distance Thomas can see some black trains and thought it was his rescue and was like, well my rescue came early. As they were coming closer Thomas was starting to think that they were not the rescue because the rescue is a different color. He then realized they were Gangsta trains and he was sweating a lot and getting really…

was a favor to her, but it was not altruistic. The children did it for themselves, to rid themselves of the burdensome house and save themselves from any further shame from the town. Before “Mama’s” death, they were stuck to endure the stares and laughter, but they did not have to put up with it any longer. While her legacy will live on in the town, the children were able to finally go somewhere by which they would not be stuck. The move away from the town was a separation from their mother and…

“Laughter is easier minute by minute, spilled with prodigality, tipped out at a cheerful word. The groups change more swiftly, swell with new arrivals, dissolve and form in the same breath; already there are wanderers, confident girls who weave here and there among the stouter and more stable, become for a sharp, joyous moment the centre of a group, and then, excited with triumph, glide on through the sea-change of faces” (41) The connotation of alcohol flowing thorough the party from words such…
