In essence Huck lies throughout the text, sometimes for the good, and grievously sometimes for the bad. Huck Finn has a tough life which puts gashes though his self-morality, so sometimes not believing what he says is not all that wrong. Huck has a father that tries to supply the good for him, but does not always end up in good terms. Pap is a complete drunkard, a mess, in some people’s eyes a waste of life. He takes Huck to a cabin where Pap physically abuses Huck.
I had to write down goals so that he could monitor my progress as well as push me to never settle for mediocrity. Coaches of athletic teams are almost always transactional leaders because they motivate their players by promoting winning the game as the reward. By drilling trust and faith in the system of coaching, often coaches can achieve more because they players are willing to do what it takes to win the game. Coaches must slowly build confidence with eventually attain the goal. I think that Coach K is a prime example of a transactional leader.
The Drum Major has to be able to run, stretch, strut across the field, carry a 30-pound mace, and have good balance. He also has to mentally fit as well. He has to learn to deal with whiney kids, and be able to take constructive criticism. He has to know that the band director will yell him at, and he will be blamed for anything that goes wrong with the band. The drum major has to be able to take the yelling and turn
Music is a unique and irreplaceable art form and it conveys and expresses beautiful emotions of people. Many people cherish various types and genres of music and consider it an important trait of their everyday life. Not everyone appreciates and loves the same type of music. I listen to rock because I get a sense of relaxation, it has a positive influence on me, and it tightens my connection with my friends, while I avoid listening to country music because I find it very depressing. Music, like any other art, is a way of relaxing after a person’s regular hard day at work.
Punishment to this team is not playing basketball which is something they love doing and is an opportunity for many of the students to even go to college. The consequence of their behavior is the result of the punishment they will have for not performing well in school to be a part of this basketball team and as a consequence it will result as a punishment. Coach carter also used the theory of Shaping with his team by teaching the students to do something that they did not do usually. These students were used to cutting classes and fail and still be able to play sports. However, the coach would not allowed his team to perform poorly academically and still play basketball.
Due to his lack of friends he tries to create a bond with Sam and it makes it even more valuable due to Hally’s loneliness. He would always “try out a few ideas but sooner or later” he’d “end up in there with” Sam and Willie. He would always look for something to do and always wonder what he should do and think of some ideas but in the end he knew that they would always be there and he would never be let down by them. Hally feels a strong sense of humiliation and all of it because of his crippled and alcoholic father whom made him feel a constant let down in his life. When Hally was young his father “was dead drunk on the floor of the Central Hotel Bar” and Sam helped Hally bring him home.
As we all know it, music is the small gestures in our life; however, it may have negative influences upon are life like listening to music instead of studying for an exam. Whatever the outcome may be, we all know that without music our life would be dull and unenthusiastic. What Is Music? According to Isaac Leopold Ricewho is an author,music is having rhythm, melody, or harmony but it's really underestimated more than anyone actually realizes.Music is a way of learning, a therapy, and teaching tool. For example, if a drummer has experienced a difficult heartbreak and wanted to take his anger out on something, he could not make music on drums.
I also think this position will teach me how to balance fun and work time to benefit the band. I will be the first one to admit that I fool around sometimes in band, usually in sectionals, however; it is with moderation. I do think that I can improve that balance and I think that being Junior Drum Major can definitely be a positive experience for me to
Starving for Art When examining artists from the past decade, one characteristic stands out above the rest: artists today are misunderstood. Whether it is Lady Gaga and her interesting choice of dress, the blatant stupidity of advertising, or someone’s opinion of the performing arts, artists tend to get frustrated with those who do not understand their ideas. In Franz Kafka’s “A Hunger Artist”, the Hunger Artist is an example of a misunderstood artist whose audience temporarily enjoys watching him go through the stages of fasting; however, they do not fully understand his reason for fasting. This societal aspect is what the Artist must put up with in order to maintain the attention of his audience. In Kafka’s “A Hunger Artist”, the Hunger Artist is alienated through the audience’s misunderstanding, the nature of his art, and his manager’s intentions for him.
Tuesdays with Morrie Reflection Tuesdays with Morrie was a great movie it had various lessons throughout the film, the movie’s emphasis was more drawn towards philosophy of life as it pertained to how one should live for one’s happiness and not waste time on going after things that don’t give one contentment. As can be seen in the movie when Mitch who aspired to become a musician later changed and gave up his dream and aspiration and became a sports columnist. Mitch discovers that he is unhappy and unsatisfied and felt void, but time and discussions with Morrie brings in him a sense of fulfillment and made him realize what he was missing in his life. What lessons I learned from the movie is that one should live a happy and contented life and not take life as granted and that do things that makes one happy. Help others and learn how to forgive them as well.
