towards the pigs and the other boys. His priority was always to get meat, but he changed overall from believing this was more important than anything else, even the lives of the other boys. Jack lost his civilization, he tortured and scared the other choir boys to help himself achieve his goal, stopped caring about order, and didn’t listen to what anyone else…

So far, I have completed three of the seven hours of observing my organization. This organization has many different parts. As a result, I have been observing different areas (example: the office, kid’s ministry, choir etc.). I started this project knowing a good much about this organization; however, so far I have learned a lot more. I have seen the struggles as well as the strengths within this organization, and I am enjoying the learning process. Aside from my observations, I have…

taken experiences and occurrences from long ago and transformed them into ongoing customs that have helped form the culture of our country. One of the most popular, widespread events in our current generation was inspired by a battle of two opposing choir groups in early New England. Due to our ever growing competitive spirits, Americans have maintained the tradition of singing contests and expanded its prominence far more than anyone could imagine. On November 7th, 1786, twenty-five men from a…

“Ballad of Birmingham” by Dudley Randall addresses the racial tension between white people and black people during the 1960s. The poem provides a glimpse into the discrimination from the perspective of a young daughter and her protective mother that plagued the streets of Birmingham. On September 15, 1963, in a white supremacist act, four member of the Ku Klux Klan planted bombs underneath the African-American Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama. The explosions brought down…

destroyed by a fire. Many of the characteristics like pointed arches, broken rib vaults, and flying buttresses were incorporated in Notre-Dame de Amiens, reaching the stage called High gothic. Some of the principal changes in Amiens was the size of choir having as many bay units as the nave. The interior of Note-Dame de Amiens consisted of side aisles covered with rib vaults. The piers opened up by the clerestory windows. Another characteristic of Amiens is the network of thin colonnettes in…

(Golding 20). Jack does not have the appealing appearance like that of Ralph which is off putting with those outside of the choir group. Speaking of, the choir group who later turn into the islands hunters perfectly illustrate Jack’s authoritarian control over them. Lack of empathy, harsh orders, and demanding obedience are just a few traits possessed by Jack that aim to keep his choir in order. At best, Jack is a hypocrite. During the meeting that outlined the plan for survival and rescue, Jack…

experiences in the Choir honed these skills. As I found my footing and began to enjoy being part of a team, I saw myself becoming more comfortable with public speaking and putting myself out in front of a crowd. I’ve since learned that I truly love being a leader and part of a support system for others. I’ve been section leader and president of multiple choirs, learning early on how to work with my team toward a common goal, building a relationship based on trust. Outside of the Choir, I often…

grade. That same year, I enrolled myself into the school choir. This decision changed my life because I learned that music is where my heart is. I realized that no matter where life put me, no matter where I lived since I had frequently been moved around to different schools and different states, music was my foundation. I could express myself in the choir room and pour out my emotions through my choral performances and as a soloist. Choir helped me get through my most difficult days and has…
