Examples of alright in a Sentence
They’re going to do a concussion test and it sounded like he was coherent and that he knew kind of what was going on, but he did have that glazed look on him. He’s going to be at the hospital for the rest of the night maybe. That was scary. Very hard to focus after that after you see a colleague get hit. But they gave me updates and I was like, ‘Alright. He’s good. He’s in safe hands.’ So, we moved on.
I am very happy with the win. I am very happy to be in the final and give myself an opportunity to win a tournament here, i made 15 aces so my serve was doing alright ... Delbonis beat great players on this surface already, he has done well on this surface and I think winning against him is a good win.
I think we'll write a lot more in the future just because it didn't turn out to be as time-consuming as we thought, back in the day, we didn't have deadlines because nobody cared what we were doing, no one was waiting for the script, we were unemployed, so we literally had nothing else to do. And now we can build the time, it's a little more structured, right ? Like, alright, let's write from 10 to 2, you know, because we can drop the kids off and then we can pick the kids up. We actually have lives now which is nice, finally.
I'm your employer, and I asked you if you're pregnant, I can't do that, i can't ask you if you're thinking about getting pregnant. I can't ask you if you got STDs or HIV. I can't ask any of those private medical questions, but somehow it's alright to terminate people's employment because I didn't take this emergency-use-only vaccine. This is ridiculous.
I am used to doing repeat 110's at practice, so I said 'it would be like training' and stayed focused, when they said we had to go again, I was like 'alright, let's just strap it up and let's get ready to rock!
