Voice-over

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…

playing the percussion. The introduction musical piece started off with the saxophone as the only voice with a very disjunctive melody. The notes of the saxophone alternating in regular intervals. All other instruments – piano, bass, and percussion joined in as the saxophone stopped alternating notes and played a single long note. The scale of the saxophone was high as it was also the lead voice. In contrast the base music was generated by the bass and has…

have just woken up seeing my bright blue room and my loving dog Ragz. I had just begun with my morning activities, which included looking out my window and seeing the beautiful, glimmering, blue sky with its fluffy, white clouds. Although it was well over 90 degrees in my house felt like it had all its doors open and it was in the middle of winter. My mom also had just woken up along with my dad and they were both slouched on the cough. My mother being herself woke up in a good, energetic, happy…

Creon’s definition of a good leader is someone who has the power to rule alone, over all people. For example, in the midst of Creon's insightful speech about the jurisdiction of Antigone, he questions his son, Haemon, “if I permit my own family to rebel, how [will] I earn the world’s obedience?” (Sophocles Scene 3 ll. 30-1 emphasis added). Creon must start with his own family’s obedience before he moves on to earn the world’s obedience. If the people most proximate to Creon reverence and follow…

Lauren, and Ally. The women all had beautiful voices, so they called themselves Fifth Harmony. Fifth Harmony were all queens of the sea, they traveled from the deep depths of one side to the other, bringing peace and joy to all those around them. After countless years and hours of being confined to the sea the queens quickly grew tired of the murky blue waters that always encompassed them. Before their mother had passed she told the girls that their voices were powerful enough to spark changes…

are many issues that arise during the story. One of the bigger issues in the story is the mystery that both charcters in the story have no names. One of the characters is conveniently named No Name and the other is named Visitor then there is also Voice at the end of the play. While no genders are given in the story, the author leaves it up to the reader to interpret. Readers are left to use what they know about genders using sterotypes. Reading a play is different than reading a novel or…

was snowing but we did not think anything of it because it was just a light snowfall. I could tell that the roads were getting icy, but Sophie told me not to worry about it and that we would be fine. “Are we there yet?” Rachel asked in a childish voice, trying to take my mind of off sliding into the ditch. “Does it look like we are in your driveway?” said Sophie in her motherly tone. They know exactly how to cheer me up because I was giggling and they started to laugh along. But my…

Music is the voice to our ears which people often say. What makes songs different from one another are the beats, flows, melody and most importantly the artist. There are many types of genre like Hip-Hop, R&B, Oldies, Blues, Alternative, reggae, yeah you get the point the list goes on and on. Well, each song you listen to takes you back and remembering those memories you’ve forgotten. Hearing the tone in the artist voice, the lyrics to the song and how they are feeling has us feeling the exact…

has little to no knowledge of how voting or anything else political works. For example, most do not even understand what the Electoral College is and how it works although it has an enormous impact on our lives. The Electoral College is the only voice we as Americans have in government decisions therefore it shouldn’t be taken lightly or forgotten. In today’s economy especially, it is more important than ever due to the huge gap of similar opinions between Americans and our current president,…

and creative writing are forms of writing that use voice, evidence and structure, but are very different when it comes to fundamentals. The voice in academic writing often sets the tone of where the writing is headed. The voice in academic writing is also formal in addressing the topic and readers. While the voice in creative writing tends to have common vocabulary and sensory words such as in, “Finding Your Voice,” by Ann Lamott, a casual voice is displayed, where she discusses that writers…
