Kuroko walked back into his living room to see that the other five guys had not moved much. The only obvious difference was that Kise was not sitting next to Murasakibara. He quickly found that they did not notice him and he relaxed a little. Born with a very low, mostly undetectable presence had left Kuroko accustomed to being unnoticed. He found that though it was considered a curse, his low presence came quite in handy at times. He spotted Akashi still lying down on the side of the couch he…

You hear many sounds throughout the day. In the morning, the sound of your toaster, when your pop tarts are ready. At night, when your floor squeaks when you go to the bathroom. There are many noises throughout your day. The poem “Atoms of Sound” is about everyday noises are what form your days and nights. Throughout your day you hear many noises. The television turned up; chitchat on the telephone (lines 9-10). You can also hear your dogs. Their long claws clicking on the floor (lines 4-5).…

Pennhurst Asylum, Spring City, PA 1987 All I hear is voices. All day, everyday, that's all I can hear. Sometimes I think it's normal, at least they keep me company. There are so many, but one voice always sticks out above all of them. Overall she usually stays calm, but she screams at me sometimes. She gets angry when I don’t do as she asks. 2 years earlier: I squirm in my seat on the park bench and wonder what my life would be like if I was like them; if only I was like the other kids in my…

You have to pass the national test and have your Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) and your Clinician Competencies with our professional organization…

a live production, or if you are watching a recital through a computer screen. The performances both include very unique uniforms, scenery, dancers, and music timbre. But what you miss out on when watching a recording, is hearing the live gamelan sounds flood around you and all the energy in the concert hall. Over all, I prefer the live version. The melodies in both versions have very large ranges due to the various instruments. Each type of instrument plays their own rhythm and when layered…

Drama club has given me so many opportunities. I’ve been in numerous productions, including “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown”, “The Wizard of Oz”, “Kilroy Was Here”, and “The Sound of Music.” I’ve made many lifelong friends through theater, including one best friend in particular whom is very important to me. I met my best friend, Samuel Gouldsmith, in the seventh grade. We have been best friends ever since, and in January of…

enough to send shivers down your spine. The audio cues associated with the killer alerts you to her presence, but more importantly it directly affects exploration. When the sounds emanate ahead of you, it would be wise to improvise a new route--that in turn reinforces the need to memorize Sehwa High School's layout. When the sounds originate behind you, it severely complicates an eventual retreat--especially if you've stumbled upon a dead end. Because of this, the thought that Ms. Song might…

The sounds, the smell, the sights, and the eerie and melancholy, but somehow always beautiful sound of jazz music assaulted the man's eardrums, as usual, as the dusk began to darkness, and the final rays of the sun lit up the sky in an incandescent, orange glow, which perfectly match the scene. New Orleans was a city, Michael O'Loughlin was still to become accustom to, and that showed in the way his bright green eyes shifted from side to side, his attention caught by the bright dolls and…
