“Parker!” Coach Bieman yelled. Corbin Parker was shooting hoops in the school gym, but without much success. Shot after shot, he had the same result: a miss.

He rested the ball against his side and lowered his gaze to meet Bieman’s stern eyes. “Yeah, Coach?” Bieman was practically fuming. “What was that?” Corbin shifted his weight from…

I had "Girl On Fire" by Alicia Keys in mind, but I chose my daughter’s favorite song, “Roar” by Katy Perry. This song is her anthem, and she will make you nauseous every time she sings it at the top of her lungs. What makes this song so powerful is because of the apparent reason that it has a motivational aspect that empowers women to break the mold of female stereotypes. The idea of Katy “roaring” speaks about women who can take care of themselves without needing to be rescued, much like the…

Hap loves traditional art but not modern or abstract art as he claims that “it’s not art if he can’t tell what it is” (1),…
The song that I have decided to analyze is Formation, by Beyonce. Beyonce is a worldwide sensation in the pop music industry as well as in feminist culture. Beyonce originally started out in a singing group called Destiny’s Child, where she first became well known; once the group split, Beyonce started her own musical career and has not looked back since. In 2008, eleven years after dating, Beyonce and rapper and music producer Jay-Z married. Three years later, Beyonce became pregnant with…

You concentrate on the wolf’s footing, where it is stepping, how it is moving. The wolf’s shoulder blades tense up and relax as if it were telling you something. As if it were warning you.
