Samantha
Samantha is 23. She robbed a bank today. Sam graduated college six months ago. She has a an office job that barely allows her to pay her student loans. She is drives to work every day in her dad’s 1962 Ford F100. Samantha lives at home with her parents. Partly because she can’t afford to live on her own but also because her parents almost lost their house last year. Her dad works at the local Ford dealership. He has been working there before she was born. Her mom is a nurse at the local hospital. Whatever Sam has left after pay her bills she give to her parents. Sam has lived in this house for 19 of her 23 years. Her room is the same way that she left it when she went off to college four years ago. The notches on the wall where her dad measured her height. The crack in the tile from when she dropped her mom’s favorite flower pot. Sam can feel that her parents are having more problems than they are telling her. One night Sam came home and overheard her parents talking. She now knew why her parents almost lost the house. Her mom was diagnosed with skin cancer. Sam knew that her parents were going to fall behind again so so she decided to do something about it. The next day she would be late to work.

Sarcastic Letter
Dear kid that is still my friend despite the fact you’re a complete
douche bag. I love the way you act like your better than everyone else when
your really not. My favorite thing about you is how you act like dick around
all your friends. I love how you act like your tough but you’re afraid to ask
for help. I love how you do things to annoy our friends on purpose. I love how
you try to put other down to make yourself feel better. I love how you wait in
front of our house for us to get home and make our parents feel awkward. I love
how you have random conversations with our friend’s mom and than about in front
of them like they knew about it. I love how you think you’re the shit but you’re
just a dick. I love how you act like you care about your friends when you don’t.
The thing I love the most about you is that you take our friends friendship for
granted even though there would be no one for you to hang out with. So kid that
somehow is still my friend I’m writing this letter to tell you that you are the
best worst friend anyone could have.
Sincerely,
Reality

Dialogue Sketch
“Do you think this is going to work?”
“Yeah don’t worry my cousin did the same thing last year.”
“It better be look real or my dad will never buy it.”
“Don’t worry my brother is a doctor he taught me how to do
it.”
“Ok I’m ready.”
“Ouch!”
“You said it wouldn’t hurt.”
“Dude I think you actually broke it.”
“Let me go call my
brother.”
George King
George King is a 21 year old senior at LSU. He has a 4.0 GPA and
is the starting quarterback on the football team. He has received the attention
of many NFL scouts. He is projected to be drafted as the number one overall
pick next year. His dad was an LSU Alumni that was also a starting quarterback.
His dad never made it to the NFL. His dad taught him how to play football at a
young age as has been in great at it ever since. He has worked his whole life
to get to where he is today. George is inspired by his dad and dedicates every
game to him. He knows that his dad is watching every game. There is one thing
that George has kept from his dad and that is he wants to be a doctor and has
already been accepted to Harvard Medical. George doesn’t want to tell this to
his dad because he knows how badly his dad wanted to be in the NFL and never
made it. He wants to make it for the both of them. He eventually decides to
fake an injury and throw away his NFL career to go to med school. George knows
that he let his dad down but will eventually tell him the truth when he comes
home after graduation.
