Styrofoam was also very cheap to get as it comes with almost all packages that are fragile. The box was also an air tight seal meaning that there was not much air can get in and/or out. The blanket was chosen as the thought of when you have a blanket over your head it muffles the noise that is coming through. The blanket is a relatively cheap item and you can get one in every store. The material hard foam was chosen as Styrofoam has shown, the air pockets can scramble the sound waves and…

livingroom floor isn’t constraining, it’s safe. Barely enough room to curl up, dark under the blanket roof, and messy from weeks spent sleeping and working there, it looks more like a second-grader’s pillow fort than a teenager’s refuge from a stressful reality. I built it a few weeks ago on a whim; hauled the old white couch away from the wall and lined the new crevice with throw pillows and a soft blanket, topped with a cover to keep away prying eyes. I haven’t slept in my own bed since…

unbearably muggy. Winter can be equally as harsh and unforgiving, but the times in between make the entire year worth sweating and freezing through. Fall weather is the perfect combination of hot, cold, and colors. Shades of yellow, green, and red blanket the land as cool breezes and cloudy days slowly replace the sweltering heat and erratic storms. The mild, cool weather is what makes fall special and sets it apart.…

laundress appears to be washing someone's clothes while the woman next to her catches her attention. The main areas of this painting seems to fall on two sections. Using an out of frame lightsource. The artist draws attention to first the man in the red blanket, and then to the laundress. The light starts from the top left of the frame and stretches down over both of them. This works well to contrast against the main background and bring the main two characters forward. It also clearly reveals…

Sushil Bhandari (1997) defined vibration as a repeated movement in the normal rest position. The parameters involved with vibration are commonly amplitude or displacement and velocity or acceleration of the ground movement (Visvan, 2005). During demolition operation, vibration is normally caused by the impact of fallen structures or by the use of explosives (BS 6187:2000), which could pose detrimental effects of structural damage of adjacent premises, buried services like gas pipes, disturbance…

My eyes unbolted from my slumber. I slowly pulled the warm, soft, heavy blanket off my heated body. My feet hit the ground and the cold air struck through me like a knife slashing away at the heated film that had surrounded me. As I walked to the window my feet tripped over the piles of laundry that I didn't bother to pick up. I peeled open the blinds and there it was. Snow that had covered the valley like a blanket. Thoughts raced through my head as I pulled my pajamas off and replaced them…

Imagine eating under a blanket yourself that just isn 't normal, babies will often push off the blanket I mean I can guess they don’t like feeding under a blanket where it’s hot and sweaty. Some women believe nursing around other people is offensive to young children and inappropriate. Yet, in restaurants for example hooters show way much more…

The Fort
 When I was younger, I was fortunate enough to live in a neighborhood filled with other children I could play with. Nearly every day was a new adventure. On this very average weekday a close friend of mine named Yesi invited me over to her house. As I got to her house I realized that her parents were moving around furniture. Seeing all this open space gave me a wonderful idea. 
Often times we would build small forts in our bedrooms with whatever we could find. However, today was…
