Analysis Of An Open Letter To Myself

When hearing” Oblivion” for the first time the audience’s first interpretation may be vastly different than what the upbeat and playful rhythm may lead the listener to believe. “Oblivion”, a song written and performed by Claire Boucher a.k.a. “Grimes”, is a song with electronic beats, synth-pop tones, and almost inaudible, child-like vocals. Yet, when reading the lyrics the audience can uncover the darker meaning behind the “playful” song. The lyrics suggest a state of cluelessness or unawareness of one’s surroundings, as well as revealing Boucher’s experience with a sexual assault and the effects of the assault. Through the use of imagery, repetition, and the overall tone of the song the audience can view a traumatic event through the lyrics in “Oblivion”.

To start off, the first stanza in her song represents a sense of how unavoidable change is and how the confusion of the bond combined with the stress of the blame game can lead to a doomed

Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”, written by lead singer Freddie Mercury, is an elaborate and intriguing best-selling song from 1975. There is much speculation about what this song could be about, but there is a general understanding that no matter it is about, the song is used to express Mercury’s feelings. Throughout the song, there are various shifts in tone and music style, which are very important in demonstrating Mercury’s emotions toward himself and others. The song is symbolic of Mercury’s emotional struggles, and through various rhetorical strategies he conveys his confused and fragile emotions to the listeners.

However, in the following stanzas, Carter changes his tone and tense to show how he felt growing up with his father. He states, “I despised the discipline / he used to shape what I should be” (7-8). This shows Carter, even though he disliked the means of reprimand his father implemented, understands his father’s ways were to help him become the man he “should be.” Through this insight, Carter says, “not owning up that he might feel / his own when he punished me” (9-10). This is possibly saying not only did he bear the chastisement, but his father sensed the “pain” as well. Yet again, maybe Carter has a deeper message and is saying fathers and their children share the same troubles and triumphs. In addition, Carter remembers how he “didn’t show [his] need to him, / since his response to an appeal / would not have meant as much” (11-13). Furthermore, he states “his response,” (12) “would not have… / …been as real” (14). Telling such a harsh reality, Carter contrasts his statement and relays to the reader through “those rare [hard] times,” (15) “…the pure joy / survive[d]” (16-17).

I will be visiting Raleigh in late August; a few potential matches may still be interested in correspondence.

First off, Atwood uses a variety of language and language devices to portray a certain tone and setting in her poem. Atwood uses repetition of the words you and I throughout her poem to create a sense of intimacy between the speaker and the reader. For example, this quote which entices the reader to listen, “I will tell the secret to you,/To you, only to you./Come closer. ...” this leads the reader to feel a connection between themselves and the speaker creating a false sense of security. Another form of language that is seen in the piece is what I like to call ‘guilt trip’ language. This can be found as any words that make the reader feel bad for the speaker. By using this type of language the speaker traps the reader and the reader feels an urge to help the speaker change her situation. An example being, “I don’t enjoy it here”, “… This song/Is a cry for help: Help me!” in these quotes the speaker is putting a lot of responsibility on the reader. Now, because the reader feels a connection with the speaker they are more likely to empathize with the speaker. Atwood also uses very vague grouping terms, leaving the reader to determine how many people the speaker is talking about. This could be interpreted as previous friends or partners that the speaker has mistreated and manipulated.

The purpose of this assignment is to self-reflect on what has been learnt in the topic this semester and how it is going to influence as a health professional in our chosen field. This assessment is made to encourage us to be able to identify the values and beliefs we have as individuals and how these impact on our ability to interact without others in a diverse society. This self-reflection will include the results from an Implicit Association Test to help gain a greater awareness of my own unconscious thoughts as well as evidence from reliable sources to help back up statements and give evidence to support this assessment.

The song describes how outsiders, or people who do not belong, have difficulty being accepted. This can be determined from how a person dresses, behaves, talks, what their interests are and so forth.

I, Moin Ahmed and my spouse Ismat Ara, continuing our married life since August 22, 2014. I have been working in a prestigious university, as a Lecture since April 8, 2012, and getting a lump sum salary. My organization already provided me No Objection Certificate which is attached with this application and there it is mentioned that, my institution will have no objection if I go abroad to reunite with my spouse, and I will get leave of absence and will be able to join in the same organization after coming back in my country. This NOC is giving me the opportunity to apply for this visa and accompany my wife in her hard times when she is struggling to cope up with a new culture and new environment.

When asking all of my fellow peers to take in and read over this song, it seemed to me that the main reoccurring idea was that of the narrators’ unwillingness to just accept his thoughts, because now he no longer had those materialistic distractions of his “radio.” He now, has to deal with this newfound reality face to face. For the most part, this interpretation that everyone had constructed was in fact, somewhat correct. I will now give my own insight into this song simply through the lyrics.
