Doodle

Assignment 2 In my opinion, Tom Feelings’ pictorial of The Middle Passage is not a useful tool because of its blurry drawings, the order of pictures and large room for interpretation. The pictorial seems to value quantity over quality, as most of the drawings are very blurry. Although the gray scale makes the pictorial look older, the shading in the drawings clumps everything together and it is difficult to see the details. For example, in many of the drawings that include white men, the…

Being the only women in the entire state was something everyone was flustered about. Finally, On November 2nd, 1984, Velma didn’t want to face her last meal, so she asked for a Coca-Cola and Cheeze Doodles. Minutes before 2:00 pm, she was dressed in her pink pajamas and an adult diaper. She was then strapped to Multiple IVs, a heart monitor, and a stethoscope. Three injections were inserted by three volunteers. One of the syringes was a dummy, so no…

was pleased to bark commands near the mitochondria house. It went on like that for a while until I noticed the classroom was unusually quiet. The teacher had stopped her riveting spiel about the various cell parts and as a result I had run out of doodle inspiration. I glanced up at her and that's when I noticed. She was standing with one hand on her hip the other grasping a pencil pointing to a chart titled “The Basics of Cells”, her mouth was open like she was making to speak but no sound…

much? According to Patricia, the guilty convict is the artist known as Walter Richard Sickert. When Walter is noted as an artist, this means more than just paintings. Walter was known to be notoriously skilled in the art of disguise, and also drew doodles and comics. This is also more evidence that could be used positively towards Patricia’s claims. Credit of that goes to the fact that there were notes and comics physically sent to the police from Jack the Ripper himself. In doing this he…

A wise person once told me that there is a calm before every storm, and to be patient through the difficulties of life, because pure happiness does not come easily, nor does peace of mind. After several years I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s important to always have a bigger picture in mind. We hear the miracle stories of humans who have overcome their circumstances and met obstacles with triumph, however, I believe humans have forgotten how remarkable we really are and how every day we are…

As Milo, Tock, and the Humbug continued on their journey, they stopped at a little box sitting on the side of the road. Half of the box was smooth, shiny, and painted a light pink, while the other half was chipped, decaying, and was a dull white. There was a small window in front, and connected to it by a string was a white sign with sloppily written words. “Well, this is... peculiar,” said Milo, getting out of the car and staring at the tiny box that was half his height. Tock got out next and…

“BREAKING NEWS” seems to be the consistent thing to read nowadays. I stare at the screen with the words in all-caps and red ink and think, Does this truly get people to read? Another life gone from racism and brutality. I begin to cry, remembering a December night two years ago. I was riding the local light rail to Phoenix for a show. There were a handful of people on board. Two police officers were walking around, asking for our tickets. One didn’t obey. One told the cops to mind their own…

On the surface, memory appears to be passive experience; it is strange and often intangible. However, dive deeper it reveals that memory can leave strong impressions on individuals. Memories are moments a person lived and remembers when recounted. Memories can come in many forms. According to Jan Assmann, communicative memory is a shared and transferable within a social group defined by common memories of personal interaction. The communicative memory comprises memories related to the recent…

I have a memory of sitting in my elementary classroom doodling on a page on my desk and uninterested in what the teacher was teaching. Suddenly I look up from my doodles and realize that the teacher has moved on to a new subject and I have no clue what is happening. Some elementary school teachers move from subject to subject throughout the day and hope that the students are able to jump from subject to subject with the teacher. There is now an instructional method that allows the teacher to…

fantasy comes to sweep us away with moral value lessons of social justice, and discrimination rhyming its way into our worlds. This paper considers how influenced the narrative and storytelling throughout Theodor’s vast career. First in his childhood doodles, on Sundays at the zoo with his father, whereas the Seuss describes, animals he drew had too many knuckles. In the same fashion later on, his sketches in Dartmouth College’s rag the Jack’o ‘Lantern. Throughout his career Dr. Seuss wrote…
