When disco arrived it changed a lot of things. It changed the kind of music people listened to; changed the way they danced and changed the places they went out to at night. The movie that made everyone want to disco was the ever popular “Saturday Night Fever” which came out in 1977. The movie soundtrack went platinum and the music was fantastic you heard it practically everywhere you went. If you are puzzled as to what I’m talking about then you missed out on an incredible time and if you are smiling

been in the working world at length, it is has only been a little over a decade since I got my first afterschool job. It seems I bring a bout of bad luck with me wherever I go, though my former employers have not a negative word to share about me, a rave review is hard to come by from an out of service number as every place I have worked for has gone out of business. Expiration dates are all part of the deal when it comes to the working world, it is something that I dread, but accept.

Last weekend on the 16th I went to see Chance the Rapper at the Rave with two of my friends. It was a last minute decision but it was definitely worth it. Chance doesn’t sing the type of music that we are learning about in class, and normally I don’t usually listen to that kind of music, but I had a great time there. I am more of a country person but I am always open to new things. Chance the Rapper would be considered a vocal soloist, he sings by himself on stage but he does have a band behind him

Campus fears are intensifying. These days the world hears about a shooting each and everyday. It has got ten times crueler over the past couple of years. It’s time schools get more secure for when these types of things happen and that’s just what USI has been speaking about recently. They are proceeding at universities even elementary schools. These shootings are getting out of hand every second of the day and are making people in the world panic for their lives. Something needs to be done to help

quality of the act the person commits, but rather a consequence of the application by others of rules and sanctions to an ‘offender’” (pp 12-13) Depending on how one choses to look at it, the public could also be viewed as social deviants by this new rave culture. People in this new subculture had become accustomed to this new lifestyle, they found a group were they were accepted and possibly couldn’t understand why this dominant group would want to live such a conformed life.

ever pondered what the message was from this breathtaking poem? A reader may conclude that the theme was to fight death. One example why a reader may determine this is because in the poem, it states, “Old age should burn and rave at the close of day”. The words “burn” and “rave” may represent determination and anger. Can you picture it in your mind? The words “…the close of day” means death, therefore the reader

Death can be a destructive obstacle in our lifetimes. Dylan Thomas’s “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night” discusses the theme of death. It also depicts how the poem shows the theme of family. The two of these themes come together in the poem to exhibit how death in the family affects people in the family. The theme of death in the poem is shown through the reiteration of the line "Rage, rage against the dying of the light." And his last stanza. Thomas uses a paradox of day and night. A paradox

In describing human life, rather than explicitly using the words ‘life’ and ‘death’, Thomas uses light and dark metaphorically to describe these different stages of life. Thomas instructs that at the end of one’s life, their “Old age should burn and rave at close of day” as well as to “rage against the dying of the light” (Thomas 2-3). At the close of day, as one can assume, the sun will start to set and the sky will start to dim, or light will start to die. Thomas uses this daily process as a metaphor

“Old age should burn and rave at close of day” (2). The line “grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight” (13) is referring to a generally sad or sleepy subject, death. By using strong diction, a line describing dying blind men becomes hopeful with the use of words “blinding”

Normally, it is a critical point for the dying person because after it, he/she will never be able to go back in time and make any changes with his/her life. Because of this hard-hitting reality, some people try to fight it until their last breath out of their desire to still make things right and great. This is what Dylan Thomas hints through the creative interplay of sound
