Panic! at the Disco

Some Phun Intended The first time you hear music, it is not even a sound. It is a feeling, a sensation one got from inside their mother. Whether it was Willie Nelson, Beethoven, or Slim Shady, the rhythm felt as such a small person stays with us. Later, we listened to whatever television show was playing in the room we were in; or the music our parents played for us in the car on the way to school. It is not until we are about eleven or twelve that we truly discover what we enjoy listening to.…

My Life Soundtrack The first song I would have to choose is “ I’ve Been Watching You,” by Rodney Atkins. My favorite quote from this song would have to be, “He Said, I’ve been watching you dad, ain’t that cool. I’m your buck-a-roo, I wanna be just like you.” This quote has always gotten to me, especially from when I was very young. I have always wanted to be hardworking like my father, because I have always been proud of my father and I want him to be proud of me. The reason I have been proud…

The three ads, Dew or Die, Mock Opera, and Showstopper, although incomplete show great potential to be effective. Because the market is quite young for this soft drink, the ads need to be personable and connected to our millenial times. With the great stress of social media, messages can be spread to millions in seconds. This can be both a good thing and a bad thing. If the message isn’t perfectly clear, a company can suffer greatly from its poor actions. However, if the message is precise and…

Joshua Dun throws his arm lazily around aTyler's shoulder as they walk down the crowded street. People walk past stepping in puddles left over from the slight drizzle of rain that had fallen about a hour ago. The clouds were covering the sky like a dark grey veil, almost black.You may know Josh and Tyler as the 2 person band, Twenty One Pilots. Tyler and Josh are a group of cops that only work on, "special cases". The one were working on now is pretty violent. As we approach the scene there…

Welcome Home - Radical Face This song fits nicely with the part of the book when Bechdel comes back for her father’s funeral. She comes home to old memories of working with her dad and playing with her brothers. She also revisits old relationships with her relatives that have been completely or slightly severed. In ‘Welcome Home’, the singer also addresses the topic of old relationships, ‘Ships are launching from my…

For my photoethnography project, I decided to observe local dive bar Frank & Marlee’s in Oxford, Mississippi. Frank and Marlee’s hosts a special every Tuesday called “Taco Tuesday” and offers dollar tacos, as well as eight-dollar margarita pitchers. Many students and residents frequent this tavern to enjoy drinks and food everyday. However even though many people find Frank & Marlee’s accepting and inviting, I discovered many attributes often don’t represent that notion. Todd Lynch and his…

school, in order to get other people to like me. Allow me to set the scene; it's eighth grade, and two of my closest friends have entered what you might call an "emo phase." They've discovered the joys of tumblr, SuperWhoLock, and Hot Topic. Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, My Chemical Romance- these bands all become staples, favorites, and suddenly they're going to concerts left and right. At first, I tried to ignore it, but as my best friend began to slip into it as well, I was…

popping sensation in my right knee as I stood from my chair. As my weight shifted I felt my kneecap pop out of place, slide over, and lock into place on the side of my leg. Immediately I fell back into my seat and grasped my knee in pain, and a wave of panic came over me as I looked down. My kneecap was now protruding from the right side of my leg rather than the center. I saw the school principal, Mr. Johnson, standing a few feet away superivising…

“Singin’ all my songs to bedroom mirrors, deep inside my heart I’m still here.” Sitting in my friends living room, four friends gathered on new year’s eve listening to Andy Biersack. My favorite heartthrob was 25. I carefully fixated on the screen, tuning into the words. “We’re always runnin’ away and we don’t even stop to think about it. The world’s in our hands, yeah, they don’t need to understand. We do it our own way, no matter what they try to say about it. We’ve got our own plans,…

Arie From Camp white kid ramblings by Carson O’Brien I’ve told this tale before, the goal of the story at the time of its first story was to convince people it was about some other narcissist. I find it hard to tell a personal narrative, personally I believe that narrative and author should be separated.However that’s impossible, which is why artist put a vail over the non-existent face.That brings up another issue, light.Despite humans having many insecurities it is often hard for us to paint…
