A Night to Remember

The night is silence. The star is shining. The world is listening. I should have gone to sleep hours ago, but the memories go through my head. The music has enchanted me. This music most reminds me of my dad, Oscar. I always listen to this music on June 22 and Nombrever 26. On Nombrever, 26 is his birthday and on June is his anniversary of his last breath. Its has been 10 years that I see him. I was 6 years old, two days after my birthday he went to the shy. He had a broken heart. I remember…

It was the most significant night of my life. I remember it like it was yesterday. It happened on a night during the summer before freshman year. My parents and I didn’t always get along well. There was a lot of tension in my family early on. My parents got married December 21, 1998 and I was born July 7, 1999. I never really thought much about it because it seemed normal. A year earlier I found out that I had been conceived before my parents were married. One night the thought just popped into…

and not have anybody think anything less of me besides that I work my but off for that money. Also, being a female I know that I’m not as good as a male. Men have better paying jobs and don’t have to worry about where they park, if they go out at night, or if a women is going to say something extremely rude to them while…

Dear ……. I remember it like it was yesterday. The day I came face to face to my worst night mare. I can’t put into words the pain I felt. The pain that caused my body to shut down my heart to hide away deep into the depths of my chest. The day I didn’t feel human anymore. The day I felt every emothion all at once and at the same time feel nothing at all. That day turned into nights of restless sleep. Nights where I woke up screaming seeing you. feeling everything…

Jews were imprisoned and how their freedom was stripped away from them. And the white dove symbolizes, Elie Wiesel, being able to survive and fly away from the concentration camp. There are typical, everyday items that deeply connect and symbolize Night and the Holocaust, like the dove flying toward the sunlight symbolizes aspiration and a bright future for the Holocaust survivors. The Holocaust was a mass murder of Jews and other persecuted…

I was at school and got bullied at school during lunch one day. A guy that didn’t like me for whatever reason wanted to fight me and I turned a cold shoulder and tried to walk away. That didn’t go well with him and he pushed me down the hill and I fell down the hill and all my food came out of my lunch bag. I felt extremely humiliated because it seems like all the school saw it. I was laughed at and so I went in the school to hide. I didn’t cry but I was roughed up. I never seem to let anything…

In “Demonology” by Rick Moody, he uses different motifs of photographs to help give information as well as an emotion for the audience. It first starts out with what seems a regular Halloween night where the kids are all dressed up going house to house followed by their parents. To me, all of these pictures and scenes beside the last one where Moody’s sister suddenly passes away, give more insight on the life that him and his sister had. It feels like it’s an average family during situations…

A Move to the South The loud noises of car screeching to a stop, train horn blaring, or police sirens flaring. The typical big city noises that everywhere gets woken up to at night was about to come to an end. North is very different from the South, so trying to adapt would be harder than I ever imagine. It was the summer after 2nd grade, so I was 8 years old. Everything in my house was in boxes, I had no clue what was going on. I was awakened early one morning in August; everything in my room…

I have seen the first one you mention though not the second--thank you. Unfortunately the clip of excerpts is missing the solo I remember--where the movement seemed to flow through her body like a force of nature--it was as if she became a rippling stream. Sounds absurd, but that's what it looked like to me! Just a side note about youtube and video: I live far from the centers of the ballet world and depend on youtube for much of my ballet watching these days--I have even formed some…

different structures and forms that help convey their similar themes of death. Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night is a villanelle, a poem that has nineteen lines, divided into five three line stanzas. The lines consist of iambic pentameter that gives a “da-dum” rhythm to the poem, emphasizing every second word like “Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight”. This helps the audience remember the poem and the short three line stanzas give a different perspective of people who faced and…
