On February 19th, I attended the 2017 Epcot International Festival of the Arts located in the World Showcase of Epcot Park, Disney World Florida. This outdoor gala encompassed an array of fine arts exhibited under fine white tents along the World Showcase’s walking paths. As I strolled along the pathway, I came across one particular framed photograph that captured my interest. It was a large digital photo of an under view of a pier and it was titled, “Pacific Tides” by Carlos Cuba. As I gazed at this piece, I began to admire the serenity the print inspired within me. All of a sudden to my left, the artist, Carlos Cuba asked me if I like his creation.
I had the upmost please to speak with Mr. Cuba for over thirty minutes regarding many topics.

    Affirms Holmen Rhetorical Analysis

    Larson uses repetition and suspenseful diction to convey a sardonic tone. The repetition of “could” affirms Holme’s domination over his weak victim; this amplifies how he has the power and control to choose whatever method deemed worthy of dealing with Anna.

The uncertainty of Holmes’ actions engages readers and makes them question whether Holmes has the humanity to let Anna live. “Last moment” and “last few seconds” imply that Holmes will choose his technique at the last instant, creating more suspense.…

    Personal Narrative: Hawaiian Culture

    A metaphor to thoroughly interpret my own cultural identity would be the coconut delicacy known as Haupia. Not only for its elegant perplexion, but for the soft clouded stature that belongs to this alien creature, which taste is only permitted to the fortunate few occupying the native islands of Hawaii.

A more well-known phenomenon that had one of its origins among the islands of Hawaii and is still dwelled upon to this day is surfing.…
