My plan succeed. When we’re back to my house I immediately hid the key while she was having a look around my house to avoid her to escape. When Lucy was looking at my father’s picture, I said he went to war for a really long time, I was surprised when she said her father went to a war too. I offered her a cup of tea and sat with her next to the fire. Lucy started telling me that she likes winter because she can play snow ball fights, ice-skating and also Christmas, she loves receiving so many presents.
He composed several concertos for the bassoon, oboe, recorder and flute, as well as the rarer clarinet. Woodwind instruments had become an integral part of Northern European orchestras, but the trend hadn't made it to Italy, where the violin was king. It is partly through Vivaldi's interactions with travellers to Venice and his own travels to Germany and France that led him to explore woodwinds. It is likely that Vivaldi played some of these instruments as well. Vivaldi’s orchestra in the Bassoon concerto consisted of a bassoon, Violin 1 and 2, Viola, Cello, and Bass.
Right after the snowball accident, Mrs. Ramsay went over to the Dempster’s house to aid and support them. She told Dunstan and his father to not wait up for her; but Dunstan could not fall asleep. He waited until his mother came home to eavesdrop and find out what was going on. “… She came home, self-possessed and grim… I heard them talking before
In order for the author to show that one must overcome faced obstacles to pursue their dreams, she uses the protagonist, contrasting characters and symbols. In the short story “Leaving the Iron Lung” Carter emphasizes on the character Pauline to show how her physical condition limits her to accomplish her dreams. For example, when Pauline is yelling at the top of her lungs while watching hockey night in Canada triggering her mother to become angry at her, Agatha, Pauline’s mother, “[clicks] across the kitchen floor” to hurl at Pauline who waits with her “[shrivel] legs”(2). The state of Pauline’s legs show that she cannot run from her frustrated mother and therefore is frozen on her favorite window seat(2). Her polio restrains her from avoiding mischief she has caused.

Jo Shapcott’s poem is about the Great Storm and she describes the damage and chaos of the storm on her home and how something comforting like here home can be turned into a nightmare. In last stanza Jo Shapcott compares her love life and the storm together which gives a strong idea of how chaotic her life is. In the first stanza Shapcott describes literally what she is seeing and how chaotic it is: “Through the window everything was horizontal.” This description of the effects of the storm is very powerful because it creates an image of how strong the winds must have been to topple and push down objects. This description also is very eerie and must have been frightening to Shapcott since you would never expect to see every bin and shed toppled over and trees being uprooted which tells the reader of how there was no objects that were tall left creating a horizontal image. The result of this shows how the environment around you could be
For me house music is not just a sound, it’s a feeling. Although I am what you call a “house-head”, many are surprised at the fact that I am also interested in classical music. I have to admit that classical music can be quite a bore at times, especially for my generation, but if you sit down and listen to the melody you can learn to appreciate the meaning of each phrase. A phrase in music is a primary section of a melody. Medium is the instruments and/or voices playing music.
We can realize that the most recurrent theme is that of nature specifically weathers and perhaps changing seasons. In the section after the questions, the teacher is wishing for a window. She wants one for her students so that they can look outside and enjoy nature even if they take it for granted by watching the clock and waiting for the bell all day. In the section after this she refers to how she wants their region to resemble that of the north by being snowy with petals that fall and move around so much like snow that they make the classroom seem still. The section beginning with the dull roar of the air refers to the stillness the teacher wants for her room where the only noise is the air and not the murmurs of students.
Noelle Stewart PSY 252 Shawn Burn January 30, 2012 Social Psych Self-Assessment #1: Option 2 Experience with Cognitive Dissonance Running is a passion of mine that was suddenly interrupted when I was only seventeen. I loved the feeling of escaping everyday realties, running alone on trails and finding new routes that nobody knew I was on. I was warned numerous times about the uncertainties and scares of running alone, but I was in denial that such horrible events could happen to an innocent girl like me. After school one day in late October, as I was tying my shoes and getting ready for my run, my mom came into my room with a worried look on her face. She told me that last week there was an unidentified man hiding in the bushes
On Friday December 9th, 2011 I attended the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra’s “Holiday Cirque de la Symphonie” performance. The main focus for the concert was the Cirque performances to Christmas music. I was a passive listener as the Cirque performances took most of my attention.

Pieces performed included: A Christmas Festival, O, Holy Night, Sugar Rum Cherry & Toot Toot, Tootie Toot, Sleigh Ride, Skater’s Waltz, Farandole from L’Arlesienne Suite No.
