Swinging

Drip Drip Drip. That was the only thing I was aware of for what seemed like hours. After ages of attempting i finally managed to open my eyes, which had seemed to be caked with some substance that subtly reminded me of paint, but my achievement had been squandered by what I saw. A bag, most likely made of burlap, had apparently been thrown over my head (if not my entire body for I can not feel any part of it). A sense of numbness encased me like that of the chill of darkness that encased my…

For a group to work like a whole they need a good leader. There are many techniques to being a good leader. To be a good leader you have good EB skills and be a responsible leader. I don’t like to be a leader. I am a follower, I am not a very social person when it comes to talking in front of groups. It makes me nervous and I am not comfortable talking around a lot of people. When I have to lead I like to be the only one talking and like to be heard. While I don’t like being the center of…

influence of people and things which he would later realize, did him no good. Later in life he came to understand that it had conformed exactly to the profile society built for him. “One summer afternoon - in my sixth year - while peering under the swinging doors of the neighborhood saloon, a black man caught hold of my arm and dragged…

Regardless of the dead tree, the “tree surgeons” came by and “took it down branch by branch” with “everyone singing”. This comments on the idea that not all death is considered to be tragic and morbid when there are men happily swinging axes into something dead. Lewis uses the strategy of comparison to compare the elm tree and a field mouse and wonders if his death is any “different from the passing of our elm”. He complies with the idea that “ an elm tree” lacks “pain receptors”…

Investigation Hooke’s Law AIM: To investigate how a spring behaves when a force of load stretches it. To figure out the relationship between the loads added to spring and the extension of spring. HYPOTHESIS: I think that as the load added to spring increases, the extension of the spring will increase. The relationship between them will be directly proportional. The formula of these two variables might be F=kx. F stands for the load added to spring, k is spring constant and x stands for…

7th Grade: Seventh grade student council convention. It was a misty morning, the bell hadn't rang yet and we are in the teachers lounge about to leave. The only people I knew was my Matthew and Alex. Matt was like a brother to me because I’ve known him since kindergarten. Alex, I’ve known him since 4th grade.

areas in situations that are clearly black and white. Feeling as if you made a contribution is very hard to do, even if you truly are making some sort of impact. On top of it all there are political wrecking balls that have no idea where they are swinging. Politics just seem…

piece was how the band played slightly louder and that there was more emphasis on the trumpet compared to the last two songs, which emphasized the trombone a bit more. The syncopated rhythm, combined with the trombone’s harmonics, helped promote a swinging sensation during the main theme. Also, when the solo improvisations started with the piano, which sounded a bit simplistic, I noticed that the piano had rarely done anything noticeable since its other solo in “Doodlin’,” and continued to be so…
