Tape recorder

1 Bill Denbrough thinks: I'm damned near space-travelling; I might as well be inside a bullet shot from a gun. This thought, although perfectly true, is not one he finds especially comfortable. In fact, for the first hour following the Concorde's takeoff (or perhaps liftoff would be a better way to put it) from Heathrow, he has been coping with a mild case of claustrophobia. The airplane is narrow-unsettlingly so. The meal is just short of exquisite, but the flight attendants who serve it must…

with others so things like good open body position, appropriate spacing and voice tone were easy for me to emulate. However, I recall struggling to maintain eye contact with Carol because every couple of minutes I would look down to ensure the tape recorder was in fact recording or check my watch to track how much time had elapsed and determine what counselling skills I should be using next. Add on catching myself not smiling or head-nodding every so often and I’m sure Carol noticed that I was…

that I used to own when I was little, books that I read as a child, and many more items related to my youth age. The things that my friends and family gave me were mostly clothing and electronics. There were piles and piles of clothing and broken tape recorders that were filling up the living room of my house. My mom would yell at me a lot for making our house looking like a garbage dump. Eventually, as time went by, many of those items were sold and the place started to look like a living room…

For years, scientists and researchers have studied ways to understand and describe dreams. They have tested many theories and hypotheses to answer the many questions that surround dreams. Strauch and Meier describe dreams as “…a world of experiences, where, seemingly separated from our waking lives, we lead a second existence” (1). That being said, how is the brain able to remember these other lives lived in a dream-like state? The brain is a complex set of nerves, so many factors play a part in…

much older than any others known at the time. “Lucy” or as Ethiopian descendent prefers to call her “Dinknesh” literally means, “You are wonderful”. She got this nickname after the Beatles song “Lucy in the sky Diamonds,” which was playing on a tape recorder as scientists Donald Johanson and Tom Gray celebrated the discovery of her skeleton [1]. She was the most complete and oldest adult human ancestor retrieved from Ethiopian soil. Lucy gave the world a glimpse of what older ancestors would…

Shadows danced across Oliver’s eyelids as the bright lights above him flickered on and off. As soon as he opened his eyes the light stopped flickering and shone down upon his face, blinding him. He looked around to only be met with darkness on either side of him, the only light was the one on him. His heart sped up as what had happened hit him, El is dead and Ash is nowhere to be seen. He shot up straight to only be snapped back down, his hands and feet were tightly bound down by silver cuffs…

Introduction Homelessness statistics in Victoria provided by the ABS Census of Housing and Population in 2011 has indicated a rise of 20.7% since 2006 statistics (Homelessness Australia, 2012). In Melbourne City, a survey conducted in 2014 found a population of 142 rough sleepers, which is an increase of 40% since 2012 (Dow, 2014). Despite the increasing number of homelessness, our government and community have shown minimal efforts in combating this issue. Furthermore, Melbourne community…

Summary: In 1992, Duneier delved into an ethnographic study of the streets of Greenwich Village, centering on the men and women who live, and work there. Duneier yearned to develop insight on “how their world works and how they see it” (p. 10) and how “these persons live in a moral order” (p. 9). Thus, over seven years he dedicated his time and efforts to directly participating alongside the men and women, all the while meticulously observing, questioning and excavating information and…

I think this novel is about two people who learn from each other. In order to live a satisfying life, I must live a life with confidence, no regrets, continue to learn, and step out of my comfort zone. I also need to travel, listen to music, have friends close but keep family closer, and challenge myself. A person should always continue to learn and to enjoy the things that we have. A person shouldn’t complain about the things that they don’t have. My opinion on adulthood depends on what I can…
