When it comes to music, it has a different meaning for everyone. For some it is a sense of expression, for others it is a calming tactic and so on. Personally, I have never been extremely musically inclined. I have never been in band or choir, nor have I ever learned to play an instrument to my full intent. Although, I love to belt out along with the radio in the car, even though I may be a little tone deaf. Even though I may not have a physical connection with music, that certainly has not…

The sound of metal clicking into place and the black straps of the harness tightening around me immediately makes my stomach tighten with anxiety. I frantically look over my shoulder to see my uncle and Heather, holding video cameras and smiling wide with anticipation. He says something I don’t quite catch through the sound of heavy rain; people chattering amongst each other; and, of course, my own nervous thoughts. I can't help but focus on how the equipment digs into me and how sweaty my hands…
The glowing white light filled the stadium. The seats rose to the stars and the wispy clouds. The knots became tighter in my stomach, as I waited in anticipation of our last show. I flash back to the start of the season, the beginning of band camp. Though it was three months ago, I remember the heat and the pain as if it were yesterday. We woke up early and learned music until our hands cramped. Then in the afternoon we went outside. Heat beat on our faces, and our bodies ached as we stayed…

One of the ones where there's a flicker of darkness between each frame, giving things a stop motion kind of feel. Up close like this the light is painful and makes my head…
there have been many complaints by locals that the water is being contaminated by toxic metals (Zarsky and Stanley 2013). Research encourages that there is this heightened level of metal in the river close to the mine, which puts the ecosystem and human health in danger (North and Young 2013).
