This is a jazz score. It shows a Big Band era style stage, with people dancing all over the room. It also shows soldiers beating each other up. This is from the movie "1941."
First of all, I am the firstborn. Nothing can change that. I don't need "Big Brother" to watch me because I'm the big sister. I proudly did not have to experience that horrible event that was watching your older sibling get more privileges than you, because I was that sibling, thank you very much. The type of "Big Brother" I am talking about here is in reference to 1984's "Big Brother Is Watching You." I heard through word of mouth about something in the news about grocery stores rolling out digital price tags with- get this - cameras for facial recognition , which is greatly disturbing. This aspect of AI is the most disturbing of all I have heard that AI can do. Thankfully my local grocery stores use paper price tags, which makes me feel better. This is only something that has been talked about in the news. If it's only a rumor going around, I don't take it seriously until I know that it is the truth or it is not the truth. However...
I performed three times over the past week. I am a member of the woodwind quintet at my school. The School of Music is hosting Atrium Concerts in the Library, a concert by a certain ensemble every Friday at lunchtime. We performed in the atrium of our library on Friday. We performed a piece by a composer named Paul Hindemith called "Kleine Kammermusik fur funf blaser" or in English, "A Little Chamber Music for Five Wind Players." The piece sounded very dark and haunting , which is why this piece was my favorite. Paul Hindemith wrote a lot of modern music, and lived during the early twentieth century.

I had never played in a professional orchestra before, and I truly loved the experience! We played "Les Preludes" by Franz Liszt as well as George Ge...
I went on many field trips during my childhood when I attended a private Christian school in the area. One of the most influential field trips I went on was a trip to Virginia's Explore Park. Explore Park is a recreational park with hiking and biking trails and old pioneer houses. When I was growing up, not that long ago, it used to be a living history museum, complete with reenactments of period food, chores, and music. This part of the park just didn't have the funds to operate anymore, so it closed in 2007. The buildings are still there to look at, but lack the workers who added so much character to the attraction. Here I am in the center with the braids! It was early October of 2002. I was seven years old at the time. We took an old school bus to the park. I was excited to wear shorts that day, which were normally out of dress code. Many moms had decided to meet the bus at Explore Park so they could walk with us, mine included. She came with my sister, ...
