Amazing Grace Alternative Rock

... ent melody. Its sounds like they are using the
melody to the song House of the Rising Son, but
with the lyrics of Amazing Grace. This helps to
show how transferable this song is and its
freedom. The hymn even appears in the realm of
alternative rock (Selection 2), a style that is
one of the most popular amongst the current
generations. In this style, guitars mark the song
again, but there is not the strict rock style.
They are very free and upbeat with the rhythm.
Also in the alternative sty...

the original cover story seemed to be particularly

The film that I chose to do my report on is Jerry
Maguire. The basic style of music in this movie
varies. There are some scenes in the movie that
plays rap music in the background. The styles of
music differs from scene-to scene. For example, at
one point in the movie Jerry is in his car
changing the radio stations and some of the styles
included rock, vocal, and country. It effected the

in a salesman occupation. It is during this time
in which the salesman's personal skills are shown.

they learn this skill during their post-high
school education. Some learn in as early as high
school. In high school many teens across the

Fear And In Las Vegas

After both reading and watching Fear and Loathing
In Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson, I have come to
realize that the story follows the mythic journey.
The mythic journey is the basis for nearly every
story ever told. The mythic or heroes journey
usually begins in the heros ordinary world. Next
comes the call to adventure. The third step is
when the hero refuses the call to adventure.
Before leaving to go on a journey the hero meets
with a mentor. Now the hero must cross the first

Make Money Free Time

There is no gain without some loss. This means one
cant go forward in life without losing some things
along the way. Relationships, work, and school all
require making sacrifices to gain something. For
example working requires giving up free time to
make money, school also takes free time to study,
and in a relationship time with friends is lost,
but a girlfriend is gained. This summer I gave up
my free time and weekends to make money. I also
had to give up listening my music while I was

I wish I had not done it. If I had been more
sensible, the accident would not have happened;
but it's no use saying that now. One day at school
last term, we didn't have very much to do. The
teachers had all gone to a staff meeting, and most
of us in Form 4 A were chatting, joking and
reading magazines. Vincent, who had to prepare for
an overseas examination, was the only one who was
working. He had a large Physics book in front of
him and was making careful notes in an exercise
book. He looked ...

I walked into his office. The look on his face was
distasteful. He made me feel inferior to him. Not
the way you should feel around your high school
principal. I didnt feel welcome, or even accepted.
His beady eyes burned holes in my skin. I sat. He
gazed into my tired eyes, and he asked me the
following, "Whats going on?" How am I supposed to
respond to this sort of question? If I say
"nothing, " its a given that there is something.

anything, it will be...

Lenny And Curley Wife Lenny And Curley Talk
704 words
Part One: The scene that was most memorable to me
in this play was when Lenny and Curley's wife
shared a conversation while the others were away.
It started with Lenny moping around about the
rabbit he had killed and then Curley's wife joined
him. This scene ended in a surprising way, but in
my opinion many interesting things were discussed
about the concept of life. I was extremely
surprised with the ending of this scene because
when the conversation began I predicted that it
was the start to a...
