The sun had just risen as we pulled into the empty parking lot with only the sight of the band members unloading from the yellow school bus. It was a very crisp morning so we waited in the warm car until they let us in. We finally were allowed to walk in and listen to eighth grade band perform their melodies. As we…

I heard footsteps thumping down the hall towards me, my stomach was in a knot I did not know what to do. I sat there in fright hoping that Alex may be in a good mood. Alex kicked the door open I could see the face he made when he saw me. Disgust. He was not in a good mood, even on a nice warm sunny day in Lima, Ohio.

Online Performance #1 Although all three videos showed the same song being performed, the environment of each performance definitely had an influence on how it was sung and performed. In each rendition of “If I Loved You”, by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, there was differences in the way the message of the song was being conveyed. There are probably things in each rendition that can be improved on, such as posture or in having more facial expressions. Each performance had its own…

The lawsuit case against Taco Bell was dropped following the ads and videos created by the organization disproving the accusation of their meat only being thirty-five percent beef (Crandall, Parnell, & Spillan, 2013).
