Her first month at her new high school was finally almost over and all Lauren wanted to do was go home and sleep. The past month had been a rapid mix of cheer practice, school, homework, and socializing with little time for sleep. Now thinking of how she wouldn't be able to sleep until after a long night of flips, spins, tosses, and cheering is over, she continued down the hallway towards the roar of students chattering at the lunch tables. Approaching the mass of petite girls wearing the…
At the time I was a poor college student looking for a place to stay with my friends. We found an apartment for cheap. The rent was split equally between the four of us with one person just paying sixty dollars a month.In the apartment, there were plenty of windows that should light up the apartment nicely but despite that the house was still dim. None of us would have imagined that it was haunted. Often at night, we'd hear something that sound like footsteps but thought nothing of it as might…
In this exceedingly powerful painting, “Figures in a Landscape” painted in 1972 by Sidney Goodman, a child, woman, and man are in what looks to be a park because of the sandbox and blue and red swing set. In the background the mountains are bright and happy with houses surrounded by many tall green trees. On the right side of the painting is a huge dark gloomy cloud like when a murder is about to occur in a horror movie. The figures look like something is going on in their mind, maybe they are…
There is a fascinating use of the red color and red roses throughout this film. Red color might refer to many things including; love, caring, passion, revenge, life force, and many other. Red roses in the American culture are a symbol of love, caring, compassion, life and death. Roses also symbolize beauty; perhaps that is why they selected the title to be American Beauty. At the second opening scene of the film, we see Burnham’s house with the neighbor’s homes. The bright, artificial colors of…
Space: The space is both positive and negative because it has a combination of tangible and intangible objects. For instance, the tables, chairs, windows and threes in it are tangible because these objects can be touched. However, the sky and stars are intangible because they cannot be touched. Color: The painting has a combination of complimentary colors that give the piece a warm look. For instance, the yellow and orange provides light to the composition and also add a visual depth to it…

She wears an outfit that makes her look something like a professional athlete, running shoes, bold orange shorts, and a white tank top that has the Apple logo embedded on it (Apple, 0:29-0:43). Her being in contrasting bright colors from the bland grey color of the crowd lets the audience know she is the hero, and that she is going to rescue the people from the control of the ruler. This coloration helps paint the woman in a positive light, that she is no follower, and that she does her own…
Diablo As Victoria and I sat on the plush sofa in our atrium, studying for a particularly difficult math test that was to take place the next day, I glanced out of the glass doors in front of us, at the fog covered lake and clustered vegetation that circled our cement patio. By chance I happened to spot a milky colored patch of fur moving along the jungle within our back porch. I leaned forward to get a better look at this mysterious animal. “Lilli!” Victoria barked, as she tried to get me to…
While rummaging through a drawer in search of an old photograph, I came across a picture of a teenage girl. Dressed in her navy and gold pep club uniform, she had positioned her pom poms so that they covered each hip. Her golden- blond hair swirled past her shoulders and as my eyes traveled downward I was shocked to see she had missing body parts--someone had taken a pair of scissors and cut her legs completely off. Tossing the photo aside, I continued my search. As I sifted through…
