Resurrection

This song represents everything that I am now as person, because this song's entire meaning related to me during a very important moment of my life. Years back when I was in high school I was doing things I shouldn't have been doing and hanging around with people I shouldn't have been hanging around with. I was in a bad way in life, I didn't have much self-worth, and didn't really see the point of life sometimes. Two years ago I was at a birthday party for my cousin and it felt like any other party, loud music, people drinking, and smoking, myself included. Feeling tired, I went inside my cousin's house and I saw this girl that just caught my attention like nothing else in the world. Normally, I am the most anti-social person and sure I am shy, but mostly kind of anti-social. Nevertheless, I talked with that girl until she left a couple hours ago, during that entire I felt no need to drink at all or tried to invite her to drink with me, which amazed after I thought about had happened after she left. First, I had never felt that kind of connection with someone in my life. Second, the night after that party I awoke with the strangest sense of well-being, like I was alive finally. Third, it was the first time I didn't feel like being that kind of person I was before meeting that girl. I've been with that girl for 2 years and plan on still being with her for time to come. This song represents and reminds me that I'm here now and happy thanks to this person.

The song is called Resurrection and its a song from a Finnish band called H.I.M. This band is often labeled as goth of dark and all that stuff, but I've heard not only do people with those kinds of styles and like this music. This song talks about 2 people who found each other and feel that they are finally living that finding each other brought them back to life, and that this feeling just wants them keeping wanting more of

    Though there are many differences between the song and the poem, the theme and SOAPSTone elements are similar in a lot of ways. In the song, Tyler is explaining his experience with depression. By him saying “he lost his car radio” , he’s talking about the music that helps him through the rough times. He has lost his outlet and now is left alone with his thoughts. Similarly, the poem is about a lonely guy who is also experiencing depression. He compares it to being “acquainted with the night.” He’s saying that he’s lonely and he’s isolating himself because of the depression. The subject of the song deals with depression mostly because Tyler’s mind is going crazy with bad thoughts. The car radio is stolen and he’s in silence, which silence can bring about sadness and overthinking. In the same way, the poem’s subject is about the same topics, depression, loneliness and isolation. The narrator has never found any comfort in his depression. He is unwilling to express his feelings because he feels as if no one…

    It does not have a narrative or a straight forward statement. It is an expression of a feeling of ennui and company that helps to mitigate it, even if not with the ideal methods. This, and the other songs on the E.P. were all written while my girlfriend was undergoing intense chemotherapy. This was dark time and methods were bound to be less than ideal. We coped. We survived.…

    The song starts out with a strang questioning of reality: “Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide, No escape from reality, Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see”. They first two lines are rhetorical questions. They help establish the state of mind needed in order to continue with the song. The third line is a metaphor. It means everything is crashing down on him, and he cannot escape it. It seems to conclude that he is caught between a dream and awakening. The next couple set of lines are being used as transitions into the main part of stanza one, “I’m just a poor boy, I need no sympathy, Because I’m easy come, easy go, Little high, little low, Any way the wind blows, Doesn’t really matter to me, to me”. In the third and fourth line repetition is used in order to keep the lyrics flowing. The boy thinks his life doesn’t matter to anyone, his life is meaningless and the Earth does not care what happens to him. He does not care what happens next, he just wants it over; “any way the wind blows” him, he will go and it “doesn’t really matter” to him anymore. The next three lines show intent to kill by the boy, “Mama, just killed a man, Put a gun against his head, Pulled my trigger, now he’s dead”. The boy has finally come to terms of what he has…

    In music, I compare my troubles and tribulations with the lyrics. Towards the middle of the piece, it begins to build up. When I was around 9 years old, my mom passed away from failure to receive a liver transplant. This hit my family hard and to this day, we are still haunted by the day God took her away. Since this is the middle of the piece, it's starting to have emotion and deep feelings within it. Anger, hurt, and sorrow was what I was feeling when my mom passed away. I was confused and mad at the world. I didn't quite understand why people had to die since I was only 9 after all. There was always a question of why and to this day, there still is.…

    For my song I picked Garth Brooks “The River.” I consider this song to be very meaningful. This song is about chasing your dreams and never giving up on what you believe in, reminding us that life is shorter than we think and if we just stand on the shore watching the river go by, then life will be gone before we know it. Garth Brooks uses a lot of psychological concepts in this song, such as, Attitude, Affect, Motivation, Optimism, and Behavior. Garth Brooks says, “A dream is like a river.” A dream changes, just like a river changes. As life changes, the river can be calm then strong then calm again, so our path in life change. Garth Brooks says that “He will sail his vessel until the river runs dry.” To me this mean no matter what life throws…

    Like James Baldwin said “only an artist can tell and only an artist have told, since we have heard of man, what it is like for anyone that gets this planet, to survive it. What it is like to die, or to have somebody die, what it is like to fear death, what is it like to fear, what it is like to love, what it is like to be glad.” Music expresses the pain, suffering, love and all sorts of emotions that we cannot express but just normal verbal means. Artists talk about the depressing topics that we are afraid to talk about and express our inner emotions for us and give us a sense of relief that someone else can relate to us. In the revelation of the narrator at the end of the story he realized that of all the things he been through that there is still light at the end of the tunnel because he still have his brother, they are surviving and living.…

    In addition, I liked how the song ended with a beggar and a pretty lady. Although I don’t really see how it ties in with the rest of the song lyrics, I still enjoyed the message of this verse. I believe it is trying to say that when we don’t have anything we realize that we don’t need that much in life. But when we have everything, we always have the urge to ask for more. This really relates to my everyday life. My family and I have always lived a luxurious life from being able to afford all the necessities for life. We ended up asking for more and more because we loved the feeling of getting new things. This resulted in a lack ofappreciation for things in life. On the other hand, when my grandparents were small, they were very poor and couldn’t afford many things in life; therefore, they…

    I felt that reexamination of patient’s was hard to do because the internship was only a week long, and there were several therapist that worked at the clinic, so I didn’t always see the same patients. However, there were a few patients I got to see twice where I was able to assess the effectiveness of the interventions. For example, I had one patient with bruised patella and fat pad where she had decreased range of motion from 40-10 degrees the first day I saw her. The next time I saw the patient I measured her ROM again and she had gained 80° of flexion, and was only 3° from extension. Based, on the patient’s results I was able to assess that her current treatment plan was effective and continued to progress the patient based on her plan…

    Personally, i feel that the meaning of these lyrics is that although everyone have rites now, we do not have freedom until gay marriage is accepted and legalized in society. These lyrics show how much society looks down and writes rude and unneccesary comments about gay relationships and marriage unintentionally at times, and that it is now a habit for society to bring down gay rights through speech unintentionally in our everyday conversations. People not thinking that “man thats gay” is going to have an impact on homosexuals and how they feel about themselves. These lyrics show people who are not homosexual, that they do not think about how their speech effects others and/or do not care about how homosexuals feel when ‘gay’ is used as a figure of speech. This scene relates to the rest of the music video because it shows that gay rights are not looked at seriously and not only do poeple actions show how they feel about gay rights, but it also shows through their speech. These lyrics were in some way inspiring and in other very eye opening because it really made me think about how much the word 'gay' is used in peoples day to day speech while criticizing someone/something. It made me personally think twice about what i say and in what context i use the word 'gay' during my…

    This article reports a study of lower secondary mathematics classroom learning environment in Brunei Darussalam and its association with students' satisfaction with learning mathematics among a sample of 1565 students from 81 classes in 15 government secondary schools. Students' perceptions of the classroom learning environments were assessed with a version of the My Class Inventory (MCI) that had been modified for the Brunei context. The study revealed a satisfactory factor structure for a refined three-scale version of the MCI assessing cohesiveness, difficulty and competition. This finding is noteworthy because the factorial validity of the MCI has not previously been established in past research in other countries. Also each scale displayed satisfactory internal consistency reliability and discriminant validity and was able to differentiate between the perceptions of students in different classes. A one-way MANOVA revealed that students generally perceived a positive learning environment in mathematics classes. Also the study supported earlier research suggesting that boys and girls hold different perceptions of the same classroom learning environments. Relationships between student satisfaction and classroom environment were investigated using simple and multiple correlation analyses, using both the individual student and class mean as units of analysis. Associations between satisfaction and the learning environment were statistically significant both at student and class levels for most MCI scales.…
