forwarding to the day of the parade, as the women marched in the parade, one of the most striking figure was the woman on the horse wearing an angel like outfit. Eventually people, significantly men, started breaking the security line, and attacked the marching women the police seemed to be doing nothing as the fight broke out, in fact it seems like they purposely allowed these people to break the security line (Iron Jawed Angel). This demonstrates to the watcher that during the parade some of…

Our first parade was the Foley Fun Days parade and it was pouring rain plus Hailey’s umbrella broke and none of us could fix it but it was still fun. The rest of the year was filled with parades,coronations, and community events. Some of my favorite events were the…
those classic sounds that you could only get from a family baroque, and the very sound that makes Mardi Gras so special “the jazz”. Although, the best part of all for some is dancing and interacting alongside the marching bands and dancers that would parade down the street playing instruments, singing, and dancing. On the other hand, the best part of it all is free candy, stuff animals, and breeds that the Krewe of the floats would throw as they dance to their beat. Describing these things draw…
The 1986 film, The Mission, uses music to enhance the viewer’s emotions and interpretations of the scenes. The film score by Ennio Morricone is so important to the film that it is the main focus of some of the scenes. The dialogue in this film appears to be lacking.

The first music that is heard is a soft guitar melody. It is…

The parade finally ended and with no incidents. We all decide to have something to eat as the candy we ate at the parade wasn’t enough to suffice. I decided we should all go to the famous sushi place in Japan called Sukiyabashi Jiro. I had six Spicy Tuna Rolls with four Boston Rolls. I payed for our entire meal…
Alcohol drinking is also part of this festival culture where adults used to celebrate by drinking beer made from different places. This famous culture and tradition of wide variety of food is no longer appreciated during festivals like mardi gras due to alcohol. McDonalds and Subways are the options for people are getting freakishly drunk. Even though Louisiana has so many places where one can get such beautiful and delicious food. The significance of these food culture that brings out the unity…
