Rhetorical Modes

1.
Ba-boom...Ba-boom..Ba-BOOM, BA-BOOM! BA-BOOM! My heart accelerated. You could hear it beating from an arms-length away. My legs strode one after another whisking through the humid air. I looked back at the other runners; multiple feet away, and then forward and the finish line; inches from my toes. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! The crowd cheered. "SNAP""SNAP" "SNAP," flashes were in my face. I continued running. My legs could not stop. A wide grin stretched across my face, exposing every single tooth in my mouth.

2. 
Happy. It is an adjective. 1. Showing or feeling pleasure or contentment. Satisfied with the quality or standard of.  "Jemma came home looking happy with a smile on her face." Happy.


3. 
Bob Marely once said, "Don't worry, Be Happy." A wise man he is. Bob Marley did not receive an education or abide to the cultural norms of a high-stress, capitalist society. Marley pursued his passion for music and stayed a happy soul, while inspiring others to do the same. 


4. 
Happiness and jolliness are similar because they are both states of pleasure, however they are not the same. To be happy you do not have to show an outward sign of pleasure however to be jolly you have to be cheerful, which requires the outward appearance. Think reminiscing about a fond memory for happy and think Santa Claus for jolly. 


5. 
Happy!! Puppy dog lick in the face. Ice cream cake, gift you really want--and get, ace a test, GET INTO COLLEGE! Balls-to-the-wall? No. Too intense. Endorphins floating across synapses? Yes! Like, Legit.

3. mix it all together with a cinnamon stick and cook for 11 minutes and 11 second.
4. Make a wish.
5. Remove with tongs made from king sized candy bars. 
6. Cool for exactly one minute. 
7. Eat up. It should be all smiles within ten seconds of first bite.
