Songbun: The Lives of North Korean Citizens In North Korea, its citizens live much differently compared to western civilization. North Korean citizens live through widespread hunger with little to no help from their government. On the contrary, the government forces propaganda into their citizen’s minds giving the Kim leader a god like status, all while enforcing strict laws alongside cruel punishments. Socioeconomic status, region, and different demographics including loyalty to the supreme…

3 Doors Down, Mumford and Sons, Eminem, Foo Fighters, and Blues are the bands and styles of music that are always on shuffle in my playlist. I enjoy a variety of music genres but not all. The goal of this music ethnography was to get me out of my comfort zone. So when I heard about a “Screamo” concert, I knew it was the one for me. I enjoy Classic Rock, and some Heavy Metal, but not this genre. Straight Outta Hell tour was coming to Greensboro, so that is where I went. Stright Outta Hell tour…

Signs, a movie written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan focuses on the loss of faith within the protagonist, Graham Hess and how he is brought back to it. Although, it seems as if there are two separate storylines, the two eventually intersect to help Graham become a believer again. The movie opens with the serene farmhouse where Graham Hess, his two children Bo and Morgan, and his brother Merrill live. A picture sitting by the bedside shows his family, wife included, but she is nowhere to…

I watched the New York Philharmonic Orchestra perform Symphony No.5 of Dimitri Shostakovich, which took place at Bunka Kainan, Tokyo, Japan in 1979. This concert was conducted by Leonard Bernstein. The concert lasted approximately 50 minutes and included varieties of instruments. Instruments to name are a large group of violins, clarinets, cellos, French horns, a harp, flutes, basses including a bassoon and oboe. I tend to hear various melodies used elsewhere either from Star Wars and or Pink…

Parenthood was a very rewarding movie to watch. This movie shows lots of different viewpoints of a family. Every family goes through their own set of problems and conflicts and this movie definitely shows that. I grew up in a family of people that truly loved each other. My family definitely had problems though. My sister and I fought constantly when we were younger. My parents would get very angry with us because we would ruin family dinners and family gatherings because of our constant arguing…

Hamlet Extra Credit After seeing Hamlet performed and reading the original play, I've grown to appreciate the different interpretations of the play. At the Shotgun Theatre performance, they did not include every scene and line, and cut back the number of characters. As there were only seven actors, all but two actors played multiple characters. This led to an interesting new take on most of the scenes, because certain characters couldn't be on stage at the same time. Some of the characters,…

The kind of tense movie that causes teens to feel all types of way. This movie has to be one of the most well made movies produced by Mr. Mudd Productions. Charlie, a young teen, has now lost someone really close, and now has no other choice beside moving on instead of living in his sadness. His new friends, Sam and Patrick, have now gotten close to him because of their similarities and obviously their differences. They are helping him experience the beauties of life and to live life to the…

Do you believe that treating others good will come to you in return? This may not happen immediately. It will probably happen when you least expect it. This is called karma, i believe in it. Will you chose to believe? I have had a personal experience with karam. Many people chose to treat others bad so in return they are treated bad also. The people that chose this path often have a very troubled life. This is the result of karma coming back to get them. So, make the future better for others…

While they serve as a delectable snack on their own, cashews can be made into a variety of food items ranging from butters to soup bases. Their creamy consistency, which results from their fatty acid profile, makes them an appropriate substitute for people who do not consume dairy. The cooking demo help at Whole Foods Market by Organic Authority addressed this ingredient as a staple of the vegan diet. The demonstration was streamed live on YouTube on the fourth of June, 2013. I was able to…
