Personal Narrative: Chicago Band Trip

It was about six hours later and we went and got John and he was just like normal again. We walked back to sit with Dave and Susan and they were having such a wonderful time enjoying the music and all of the positive people there. It’s hard to describe what it smelt like at Woodstock. It was a mixture of marijuana and cow manure, and a little bit of armpit because of people not being able to shower or bathe. Finally, it was our last day at the festival and I remember waking up to Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner but it wasn’t the original, he was playing it in his own way but it was outstanding.

“People need to learn that their actions do affect other people. So be careful what you say and do, it’s not always just about you!” In the book, Tangerine, by Edward Bloor, Erik made many choices including being the cause of Paul’s blindness, Mrs. Fisher told his new school about Paul’s IEP, and Paul asked about his blindness to his parents. The main choice that affected Paul was made by Erik. Erik and his old friend, Castor, chose to make Paul visually impaierd. “And I remembered Erik’s finger prying my eyelids open while Vincent Castor sprayed white paint into them” (Bloor 264).

Candy, who co-chaperones the patients on their fishing trip, embodies an unhindered and natural essence that can break down the oppressive machinery of the ward. Her presence damages what Bromden perceives as the equipment that invisibly controls the patients. When she enters the ward, Bromden imagines a “blue smoke … near the ceiling over her head; [he thinks] the apparatus burned out all over the ward trying to adjust to her come busting in like she did” (196). Candy enters so suddenly and unexpectedly that the machinery cannot calibrate itself and, thus, burns out. This apparatus is unable to register Candy’s free and unguarded movements because it is used to only controlling the confined men.

There was a gift shop and a place to get food. Of course Aiden wanted to go to the gift shop. While they did that I went to get a ice cream cone. About 45 minutes later Aidan finally picked what he wanted and the time was 3 and we hit the road for a long trip back

During one of the days of the Philadelphia trip, we had the privilege of performing in Temple University. Upon arrival to Temple University, I was immediately overwhelmed by the size of the campus and the seemingly endless amount of buildings. When we got to the room we would be performing in, I was shocked at how large it was. A-18 was tiny compared to the room that sat all three choruses. In addition, we had the opportunity to work with Rollo Dilworth, who’s the chair of music education and Christine Bass, the assistant professor of music education at Temple University.

I believe that proverb was made as a warning. A warning to people who are excessively curious; It may to some extent lead someone into a dangerous situation like the character in the short story below Curiosity Once Killed a Cat by Donald M. Jenkins: One night I had nothing to do. Wandering to the medicine cabinet I saw a bottle one inch high. Wondering what could be in such a small bottle I uncorked it and put it to my nose. Oh!

We partied to the sounds of house music, a real unique ghetto style of dance music, blasting music by artists like Dj Montey, PinkHouse, and Dj Slugo. Our wild parties made people in the building mad, but we didn’t care. We were wild and young and we weren’t trying to hear them. Our parents were gone and we were under our own authority for the first time. We told the building manager that our parents had moved and they tried to set up meetings with them, but by that time they were already in Minnesota.

While in New York, Armstrong made dozens of records as a sideman, creating inspirational jazz and backup singing for many blues singers. Moreover, he had records as a soloist including "Cornet Chop Suey" and "Potato Head Blues." These solos changed jazz history, by incorporating daring rhythm choices, swing and high notes on cornet(Source B). Furthermore, in 1926, Armstrong finally switched from the cornet to the trumpet. After 1926, Louis became more and more famous and broke more and more barriers through his music.

Have you ever walked into a concert, unsure if you would make it out alive by night’s end? Have you ever been fully aware that the next song about to be performed may incite a riot so large, it ends your life? These were the anxious, thoughts swirling around my head as I entered the Marquee Theater to see Travis Scott, or as I called it “The Rodeo”. At barely 5’3" and 105 lbs, I was pretty certain I’d be sacrificing my life or, at least, a limb. The show was standing-only and if you know of Travis Scott, you know this isn't an understatement.

“The Lottery” in the story was set up on June 27th. The whole community would go to the center of the town for the event. It would begin at 10 in the morning and only last for two hours so that the villagers would be able to go home in time for dinner. In the story Jackson writes that, “The lottery was conducted-- as were the square dances the teen club, the Halloween program-by Mr.Summers, who had time to devote to civic activities.”. The head of each family, particularly the men, had to go to the box and pull a piece of paper; if they received the piece with the black dot on it, every member of that family had to pull and whatever member choose the piece with the black dot would have to be killed by stones.

It will take about 45 minutes to get through all of this year’s entries, he said. The parade marshals are Betty Long and Bill and Dorothy Daniel. A smaller contingent from the U.S. Marine Corps Band marching in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Grand Parade Saturday morning will head over to Doylestown, have lunch and then march down Portage Street through the car show playing Dixieland Jazz, Toth and Galehouse said. Then, the musicians will perform a short

Performing Artist, Coffin has presented over 300 solo and Mu 'tet to Perth, Australia to Johannesburg, South Africa to students of all ages to rave reviews. Living in Nashville, TN since 1991, Coffin graduated with a music education degree from the prestigious University of North Texas in 1990. A number of Jeff 's compositions have been published as big band arrangments through the University of Northern Colorado Jazz Press. Jeff is also an avid photographer and he sees

Now for my lost cause it would have to be food safty the reason why it would have to be food safty because of the things they use in their meet. A muckraker had done a whole books about the meet industry how it is in the inside of the factory (Doc D. text). I thought it was disgusting and horrible.There are many thing that they do to the meet. They would keep it in a hug room rats would go on it and poop on it. What they would do is that they would put rat poisoning on the breed.

I took a lot of things away from this course, and made a lot of memories. At the end of the course we had to perform in two concerts at a local church. A couple weeks in advance we would go to the church during chorus class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I really enjoyed taking the bus and getting to leave the school for about a hour. The first day we went to the church I was kind of emotional because my family and I just held my grandmother 's funeral service there about a week before.

I pull my sandwich out of my Spiderman lunch box and look around at the circle of boys and girl around me. Taking a moment to let their loud, cheerful chattering wash over me, I think about the old me I’d left in Chicago. How surprised she’d be if she saw me now, hanging out with so many new friends, becoming an actor and loving every minute of it. She’d never have had the courage to start a new activity with a group of strangers; yet, here she is, only months later, doing just that. Although Chicago is one of the most violent cities in America, growing up there was the safest I’ve ever felt -- I was completely sheltered emotionally.
