Waiting staff

The mature period of Chou Wen-Chung’s compositional output was marked by the gradual formulation of his musical language from I Ching, or the Classic of Changes from the Western Zhou period (1000-750 BCE). The most documented aspect of Chou’s language was his system of pitch organization, which he named variable modes. It took Chou more than three decades to arrive at its final version, and it formed the backbones of his compositional structure. The theoretical foundation of this system is…

Why do you play Minecraft? Minecraft is one of the few games I enjoy playing. I've always been a fan of the creativity and concept which encouraged me to purchase an account. Four years ago my adventure as a Minecraft player began and ever since I've enjoyed every second of playing it. What I find so amazing is that whatever you decide to do involves socialising wether its playing with friends or with unfamiliar people on servers which makes it more interesting. I tend to play multiplayer a…

these questions?” “Airman please wait outside, have a seat with Staff Sergeant Bell, and don’t wonder off. Tell Wo to come in.” The Major ordered. Senior Airman Ramirez was momentarily taken-back and wasn’t happy at all to be summarily dismissed with no answer to his question. He also knew, however, that he had no recourse, he stood, came to attention, saluted, did an about face and marched out of the room and into the hallway. “Staff Sergeant Wo they want you now.” Ramirez stated, with…

next few years I did just that and it got me nowhere. After being kicked out of my house with nowhere to go, I passed by a recruiting station and walked in. All of the Army recruiters were more than happy to take me in after I told them my story. Staff Sergeant Kyle Rachtkovec took me under his wing and showed me everything I needed to do to be the best soldier I could be. That filled me with determination to make my family…

The small group of eight eager and young Soldiers stepped out of their vans, not knowing exactly what to expect. They had taken one of the biggest steps in their careers, putting them as the first line of defense in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. The sky was mostly clear on this warm, sunny September morning in the Midwest United States, with a few light fluffy clouds listing lazily by. Each of them had a different vision of the future as they nervously waited for their new…

At times we find ourselves in situations we could never envision being in, I know For me this was at no time more of the case than when I deployed to Afghanistan in 2013. To better illustrate, I found myself in a platoon amongst a variety of individuals from varying places in America with an array of backgrounds. I personally was just a year removed from living at home with my parents when I enlisted into the Army to work with communications. Perhaps I was delusional, thinking war would not be a…

Greater Responsibility My dad was a senior Non-commissioned Officer, and growing up, I could remember the jokes about Officers and the other branches of the military. By the time I arrived at Fort Huachuca in 2009, I had been in the U.S. Army for almost ten years and never really had an opportunity to work with Warrant Officers. Sure, I had work with two Warrant Officers for about one month in 2003, and one Warrant Officer in my advanced Korean class in 2005, but that was the extent of my…

Coda of Freshman Year I’m eighteen days away from being twenty, and I believe I’ve made many accomplishments at such a young age. I’ve graduated high school, became a U.S Army soldier, bought my parents a car, gave my mother legal documentation in the United States after twenty-one years in this country, and continuing my education to become a professional in the future. It has never been easy but I was able to push through all the obstacles put in my way to accomplish every goal I’ve set for…

one can trace the events and understand it, yet there is no real connection in the play. 7- Characterization: Beckett always averts to clarify and explain more about his characters beyond what is written by him in Waiting For Godot(1953). The characters in Waiting For Godot(1953) are divided mainly into seen characters like: Estragon, Vladimir, Pozzo, Lucky and the little boy; and unseen characters as: the little boy 's brother and Mr. Godot. Estragon and Vladimir, the two…

the different drummer, and most important of all to live life deliberately. Yet there are books out there that might be completely different and most important they have a opposite message. In Samuel Beckett’s play Waiting for godot we learn about two men who waste all their time waiting for this “Godot” without actually knowing anything about him…
