Attempting to look over that line, that seamless point where bay water meets mountain edge, and mountain edge meets modern city skyline, I generate amity. This is Vancouver. The crystal clear water glows on the eyes of everyone around me, and ricochets off the modernized, transparent buildings. The crisp air smells of clean, if that is even a thing: fresh fruit, fish, herbs, and cinnamon. This is the place where I notice. I look all around, and never lose entertainment. I try to decode a discussion a mom and her young one are partaking in; a young couple feed each other juicy strawberries by the marina; seagulls take turns diving towards the ground to consume just the slightest crumb from an unfinished Panini; row boats move at a thousand miles an hour, as everything is; moving so quickly before my consent. Except my heart continues to be calm, because that is the true meaning of peace, to be in the midst of beautiful chaos, but to remain composed, inside and out. The street cyclist is engaging, as he is dressed like Waldo a top a 10-foot one-wheeler; people are cheering at their wonder, throwing dollar bills into his bucket hat, as if it were a garbage can. Behind me is the market where the freshest ingredients are sold daily; fish caught exactly 30 seconds ago; people in line around the town, purchasing only the superlative for their families desired meals; fish and chips perhaps? In front of me are my beauties, all four of them, considering me in their thoughts. My family; the four individuals that have and will never fail me, are here once again, allocating this space, this trance with me. We drink San Pellegrino and nibble on caramelized almonds. I hear the accordion play, a French melody like the kind I hear in the romantic movies, giving us

In order to give Mr. Smithers the correct analysis of “year 4” projected cell phone orders, Paul needs to put together a regression analysis by looking at the orders for the past 36 months (the past 3 years). When looking at the past orders, Paul will then be able to analyze months 37-49 (year 4) and give this analysis to Mr. Smithers with a spread sheet and facts that prove these numbers accordingly. In order to come up with “Year 4” numbers I used my graphing calculator. First I clicked Stat…
Title: Looking at the title, you can predict it will simply talk about a mirror (its shape, colour, frame, etc.). However, if you dig deeper into its meaning, you can guess it speaks of a mirror’s impacts on the user who looks into it. Mirrors are often associated to self-confidence since, you impose judgement on your physical appearance when looking at your reflection. Knowing this, you can anticipate the theme of the poem having something to do with self-judgement or something along the lines of that…

reticence. As though the painter could not at the same time be seen on the picture where he is represented and also see that upon which he is representing something. He rules at the threshold of those two incompatible visibilities. The painter is looking, his face turned slightly and his head leaning towards one shoulder. He is staring at a point to which, even though it is invisible, we, the spectators, can easily assign an object, since it is we, ourselves, who are that point: our bodies, our faces…
with the infamous lines, “to be, or not to be, that is the question;” (55). Hamlet is trying to decide weather it would be easier to kill himself or live his life. As he does so, he is looking at himself in a mirror and speaks almost in a constant tone. The fact that Branagh is speaking in front of a mirror reveals that perhaps Hamlet is so insecure with himself that he needs the comfort of his own image to encourage him to take action. But Branagh’s decision to deliver this line in monotone suggests…
time where morally dissolute men exercised absolute power, indicative of the Duke’s behaviour and predisposition, illustrated in the lines “That’s my last duchess painted on the wall, looking as if she were alive, I call”. The narrators use of the possessive pronoun ‘my’, gives no name to his ex wife, suggesting that he viewed her more as a possession to exert control over than an equal which in itself is disrespectful of her memory. Also, by referring to the woman as his, it suggests he has developed…

the way the buildings that I drew looked and how the technique we were taught helped me to make buildings much easier by using a horizontal line and vanishing point. My favorite things about my work is the European monuments, the military hat, cancer ribbon, and the Chinese symbols because I like the creativeness I put into the drawing with the contour lines all around the large objects/buildings. Subject: I got the idea to draw the Louvre Pyramid and then the Eiffel Tower because it shows that…
