I had woken up on Saturday morning, my stomach growling like an angry tiger begging for food, my eyes puffy and red, black streaks running down my cheeks, my throat hoarse and my voice gone from the events that took place the night before. I felt my hair and pictured my mothers’ fingers running through it while stroking my back in order to get me to fall asleep. Throwing my legs off the bed, my purple fuzzy socks touching the cold wooden floor, I picked myself up and walked over to my dresser…

While listening to the first piece of music, which I am familiar with, "What Child Is This?" that is written by William Chatterton Dix, in 1865, using the method of active listening I have given my full attention. The more closely I have listened into, the more I felt it affecting me emotionally more than usually, because of the engagement the variety of different areas of the brain. Paying attention to the details in the well-known music like rhythm, melody, dynamics, harmonies, has helped me…

Oh no, but it's legs were strong and powerful and the endurance this monster had made it hard to stay ahead. Thump...thump...thump. My racing heart matched the beat of this monster's feet. I had worked and ran and pushed myself too much to give it up now because this is where it counted. I didn't want to be left out of the pack or have…

The 1986 film, The Mission, uses music to enhance the viewer’s emotions and interpretations of the scenes. The film score by Ennio Morricone is so important to the film that it is the main focus of some of the scenes. The dialogue in this film appears to be lacking. In the excerpt of the movie there is very little dialogue and when there is it’s kept short and to the point. The music fills in the long gaps between conversations. The first music that is heard is a soft guitar melody. It is…

As I was fast asleep I heard someone breaking in! I jumped up and dashed from my bed to see a bunch of travelers in my cave, with my food. I ran at them attacking and eating some of the men. Then a man jumped on me tied me up and gouged out my eye. As I was screaming I said, “who is doing this!” The man told me nobody. I screamed “Nobody is gouging out my eye!” The men ran off leaving me alone, in total darkness. I screamed and stumbled across the ground! I felt my way to the water and…

hung?” the princess asked happily. “No, darling, of course he won't be hung, but he is going to be hanged,” The king said cruelly. “Father, we could be so happy together. We could be like a Taylor Swift song.” The princess started to cry. “That sounds all fine and dandy until he kills you to rule Delamína alone,” The king told his daughter in a knowing tone.
